Seth's Monster Movie

nobody should miss seth's movie...

...about that paul w. thing

the thing is, there's all this stuff in the Bible that Jesus says that totally ruins american-style christianity.
just ruins it.
ruins it.

so, when we live in a country, among a church that is so largely and deeply false... how do we live out our MEMBERSHIP with the church in our land?

Look at how nehemiah prayed,
and daniel...

checking ourselves...

there's this idea that i find operative in a lot of my conversation with church folks: the idea that self-doubt is BAD.

but there's a capacity to which it is necessary and good.

2 Cor.13:5
Jeremiah 17:5-14

In Philippians, we are given the "fear" line, too.
...and in Matt. 10

Many Jesuses vs. One Jesus

compare this with the crossroads video i posted last week.



wanna put these two dudes in a room together? i do.
(this part in parentheses is added later. i really regret writing that little line there, some time later. it seems like i'm pitting 2 christians against each other. that is wrong. i DO want to be in a room with them, and all of you, as well, though. There are 2 different messages at work in the body, right now, in the church, that is. there's the jesus whom the Scriptures DON'T describe, and the one they DO. Better stated there are actually many many jesuses that the Scriptures aren't describing, but only one that they DO. all of us supposedly Christian folks are supposed to be Testing it all out (1John4) and getting it straight, ourselves, together. My intention is to stimulate your MINDS to consider these things. I am glad that people at xroads are doing good. good is good and help helps. I'm sure that the temple in the days of Jesus was a center for alms and benevolence for the poor. that was good, but JESUS was the POINT! When he came, he testified that it was all about HIM! And they drove him out. Now, we have tons of multi-million dollar churches that preach nothing that will scatter their following. I've seen them turn down the truth about hell again and again. And Peter, in acts 2, called men to be saved. Paul talked Wrath of God all over the place, and in Matt 23, Jesus' words about Hell are fearsome! What the heck? We need to awaken and pour ourselves a cup of the Scriptures that tell us about Jesus! I'm serious! This is important enough for exclamation points.)

Paul Washer did good.

bill williams III

i actually have the pleasure and the privilege of being served coffee and good conversation by a gentleman named "Bill Williams III". He is one of the few people in the world whose name is William Williams. and he's the third installment, generationally speaking. So, good on ya' Bill. and if you read this blog and comment, I'll buy YOU a coffee.

as for me, i'm going skating for a minute, before i pick up the nin-yos from school.
