Author by Night

He’s a policeman, a soldier, a programmer, a farmer, a murderer, a priest and a politician. He is anything that he wants to be. He’s a salesman by day and an author by night.

Peeping Tom Christianity

May 16th, 2006
  

voy·eur (voi-yûr)

1. A person who derives sexual gratification from observing the naked bodies or sexual acts of others, especially from a secret vantage point.
2. An obsessive observer of sordid or sensational subjects.
3. A Christian who observes the experiences of others from a safe distance, deriving a synthetic sense of spiritual fulfillment by proxy.

Some Christians never live as the Father intended, but still falsely claim to be walking in faith. They do this by observing others from a distance without becoming intimately involved. They rejoice in anothers blessing and adopt it as their own because they have none. They only pretend to bear one anothers burdens. From the shadows, they share in anothers trials and heartache without breaking a sweat or shedding a tear.

The cannot, because they have not.  They have not, because they are not.

Spiritual voyeurism is an insidious disease within the church and it is spreading.

You can’t share my blessing. Go get your own…and get out of my bushes before I sic the dogs on you! Pervert!

If you don’t understand what I am saying, I am talking about you.

What Do You Do?

May 11th, 2006
  

What do you do when your unbelieving friends treat you better and are more loyal than your Christian friends? What do you do when they are more supportive than those in the church? When you need a helping hand, a shoulder to cry on or someone to visit you when you are sick, and the only ones who stick around are unbelievers, what do you do?

Surround yourself with people who are good for you and avoid the rest. They probably won’t notice anyway.
Yeshua was disgusted with the “church” when he walked the earth. I think He still is, don’t you?

Do You Feel Loved?

May 9th, 2006
  

Do you believe that Yahweh, the Creator of the universe loves you?  Do you believe His Son loves you?  Come on, do you really believe He does?  Really?

If not, that’s not a lack of faith.  That is a lack of acceptance.

We all feel unloved from time to time, some more than others. Rather than praying for a mighty miracle or a spectacular blessing, why don’t you pray that He shows you just how much He loves you.  It might make a difference in your walk.

Happy Happy Joy Joy

May 5th, 2006
  
Happiness is an emotional state, contingent on a person’s temporal experiences.

Joy is a spiritual condition based on the condition of the soul.

If your joy fluctuates proportionately with your happiness, your carnal man is still in control of your life.

Their Test - Your Score

April 27th, 2006
  

The train wreck you see in someone else’s life might not be a test of their faith, but rather of yours.  Does your Christianity show or must the train wreck hit closer to home before you call out in prayer?
