The World Indicts the Church

Apr 11, 2008 08:03

Your enemy will tell you the truth many times, and what the pagans say about the church is that "members are made to believe the outside world is evil. The leaders will set up a dynamic of "insider versus outsider," and "interworldly versus otherworldly." This internal world "is the path to righteousness, as opposed to the external world, which is wicked and harmful and detrimental to our society."

That's a pretty good pagan definition of religion given by John Barnshaw of the University of Delaware, "who studies collective behaviors such as social movements and cultish behaviors." The problem is that the very definition of sanctification means to separate and not to conform to the norms and conduct of society, and that is what "the Pastors" try to avoid by the Church Growth Movement for example.

Barnshaw is using the terms derisively when they are in fact the correct way that the rabbis of the early Christians taught them.

Another pagan, Janja Lalich, a sociologist at California State University, Chico, said "A lot of these groups operate on fear. You're afraid of whatever punishment you might get from the group," Lalich said. "But more so, you're afraid that you're going to be missing out on that path to salvation, whatever that salvation might be."

Again correct: fear of things like hell, judgment, excommunication, and having the church girls shy away. Again, the pastors have done away with church discipline, replaced Israel with themselves, and told their evil regime that they are justified-not perfect, and doing a holy job.

We would judge that the Lethal Leaders are the nice, respectable pastors who never read a bible verse that they could not explain away into oblivion through a torrent of mundane words in a three point sermon.

The pagan Nancy Ammerman, a Boston University sociologist explains the spiritual with money: "People who are middle-aged business owners living in suburbia with a mortgage are less likely to be attracted to joining such a group than for instance a 22-year-old fresh out of college, without a job, perhaps estranged from their family." Correct again because they were told to not live their lives in this world; that the mind set on the carnal is hostile to god though they do not perceive it. She testifies to the correct condition of the average pew sitter: an enemy of god.

These are the experts on churches and Torah that are explaining away the sin of the state of Texas when they unlawfully and unconstitutionally raided a commune, and abducted the children who the CPS tyrant testified, were well cared for.

But then, First Baptist is that winsome bunch who divine god more than they know how offensive god can be. It is such as Andy Anderson's bunch that causes the rebellion against the Messiah and not Russians, Chinese, or the incompetent NATO gang that created a new Muslim state. Messiah will uphold the Law that they have defined out of existence.

Others like them are Community Baptist Church, First United Methodist Church, and Eldorado Church of Christ.
