I am reading Tortured for Christ for the third time in 20 years.
This second edition is more preachy and not really about his experiences in prison..it a lecture on western Christianity ...
but now we see Christianity again in this country trying to invade our government institutions..Why ? I ask myself. I have seen Pentecostals get caught up in this religious debate in this country..and I have never felt threatened by the unbelief others have in our society only because of my own experience in Christ from the beginning..the baptism not in water by a minister by by the Holy Spirit Himself. I am sealed with the Holy Spirit of redemption and no intellectual can ever change my knowledge of the reality of Christ..Jesus is in me. I have been getting reinforced with this knowledge for the last 34 years reading to make war with the unbelievers to subdue them; to intellectually force them to go down into the water.
But religion in politics is getting in my way...and threatens Christian influeince in our next generation probably weakening it.. and that's the deleima today..
Why does the theory of evolution threaten Christians so?
Why the need for creation in public schools..the biggest threat to our kids is
not the theory of evolution...Why spend all that strength on now intelligent design.. when Christians are created by the foolishness of preaching..never is the gospel of Christ founded upon reason..hence the miraculous never needs a reason..it just is..which means all we need is more miracles
Why are Christians spending more time in politics than in prayer ?
