Dr. Seuss does Star Wars

This is from the web-log of cartoonist Adam Watson. I love Star Wars, so this was right up my alley!

Arminianism's Updated 5 Points!

As most of you know, I am what people would call a Calvinist, so I found this hilarious. You know in a world where people are trying to remove the labels from themselves and come together under a banner of false love, I am growing more and more certain that labels are actually a good thing.

For years the church has argued for and against certain subjects. People who believed one way were labeled one thing, people who opposed were labeled another. I find it fascinating to see how people are willing to drop those labels so quickly now. I'm a younger person, but I cannot understand why division is looked on as a bad thing. Jesus said he came to divide father and son, mother and daughter and so on. If Jesus said he came to do that, why are we surprised that it has happened. Let's put it another way: We all long for unity in the church, but there are certain beliefs that people bring into the church that are not compatible with the Bible. We must be willing to draw a line for truth.



If we do not fight for truth, we are missing the point. Jesus said he was THE TRUTH. That is an exclusive statement. It means that Buddha is not the truth, it means Hindus do not have the truth. It doesn't matter if Buddha said Jesus was a cool guy or not. If he did not repent and put his faith in Christ, his thoughts on Jesus are irrelevant when it comes to real truth. Why are Christians trying to be so politically correct? Do you not realize that truth is not subjective. By Jesus saying that HE is the truth, he is saying that their is an objective truth and it is not based upon what you feel.



So, I'm still trying to find out who I am in regards to labels, but this much is true...I am a Christian. I believe there is only one way to God and that is through Christ Jesus. So all you Calvinists out there, stand up and be proud. All you Armenians out there, wear your label proudly. Don't be ashamed of who you are or what you believe. Don't believe the lie that unity should be done at all costs. True unity comes only in having one mind and being in one accord.



PS. Sorry it has been so long between posts. With summer almost over, I will hopefully have more time to devote to this blog. Thanks!

Christians Persecuted in Michigan...

I have some family from Michigan. This video is very disturbing. It details a group of Christians trying to hand out copies of the Gospel of John to Muslims outside of an apparently Muslim Festival in Dearborn, Michigan. Our freedoms are being taken away in the name of tolerance. I hope you are paying attention.

iPhone Worship

I really like this. I'm still trying to figure out what one of those apps was. I want to get it for myself!

Here we go again!

This is yet another example of what is wrong with Christian television. I don't understand why Christians feel the need to copy all the other junk on TV. Hope we don't see a Christian version of Survivor soon or better yet...Lost. Oh wait. Nevermind.



This was found at Jesus Needs New PR.

An outsiders view of Late Night Christianity...

The following video made me laugh out loud a couple of times...and then I felt sad because it is just another example of how outsiders view Jesus. Notice I said it is an indictment against Jesus, not just the church. We are his representatives and when people who proclaim Christ participate in foolishness, we are not bringing glory to his name. This is from a Australia variety television broadcast.

How to suffer well...

This is a 50 minute video. It is very encouraging watching Matt Chandler walk through this thing and watching him glorify God with his life. Enjoy.
