No one...?
...Okay! Great.
I want you all to take a look at this: "Wash Away Your Sins: Towelette"I want it to affect you, I want it to hurt you, and I want you to remember it. I'm choosing to place it right along side the following text from the book of Jeremiah. I think you'll find it appropriate.
Jeremiah 7:19,20
Is it I whom they provoke? declares the LORD. Is it not themselves, to their own shame? Therefore thus says the Lord GOD: behold, my anger and my wrath will be poured out on this place, upon man and beast, upon the trees of the field and the fruit of the ground; it will burn and not be quenched."
I think I know what Samson felt like in Judges 16:30 now. Honestly, if this sort of thing does not disgust you... if you don't want to 'turn the tables over,' I question the Holy Spirit within you. I do!
It's this time of year man. People start losing their minds, I swear. Consider this: How many 'professing' non-Christians do you think actually buy this. Of the actual purchases I'm willing to bet maybe 10%. The sad truth is, this sinful product is marketed to professing "Christians!" (Or Fictians, right?) I can almost imagine it: a few church-goers and their lukewarm sidekicks are out buying presents. Harmless, until they come upon this product. Maybe they laugh, maybe they gasp, maybe they buy it just to show people how funny it is, maybe they think it's actual "Christian" (given the cultural mistakes of our day, I wouldn't be surprised), maybe... just maybe they actually believe it will help them. This is the spiritual equivalent of accepting a drink from Satan with a 'roofie' in it.
But do not participate with it! Be fervently against this devilry. Do be cautious that the well-being of your soul is at stake the more you involve yourself with this Godlessness. It's not just about the fact that they are mocking God (or at least trying to in vain, right, because we know in the end, God will not be mocked!). It's about the false gospel! The audacity of this proclamation. And then even to market it for profit! HOW DARE THEY!
2 Timothy 3:1-5
But understand this, that in the last days there will come times of difficulty. For people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, proud, arrogant, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, heartless, unappeasable, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not loving good, treacherous, reckless, swollen with conceit, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having the appearance of godliness, but denying its power. Avoid such people.
And so the last days approach. With all kinds of evil, even new kinds unknown to the world thus far. Be on your gaurd, and be in prayer. Pray for revival, and pray for discernment. Pray that God would have mercy on us. Pray that He would save many, many, many more.
