Ahem,
THIS is Torture:
Now, try hard not to make fun of it.
NPR's News Quiz makes fun of Church Outreach
People involved give an opinion of Torture Report
NPR's news quiz often has guests who appear to be stuck in puberty. So does the Senate. And is it not ironic how a secular materialist outlook on life enables both false outrage (Torture Report) and nervous mocking of important religious figures and activities (NPR's News Quiz)?
And how both help the cause of evil?
And then there's this:
Jesus said, "Therefore I say unto you, Every sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men; but the blasphemy against the Spirit shall not be forgiven. And whosoever shall speak a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him; but whosoever shall speak against the Holy Spirit, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, nor in that which is to come. Either make the tree good, and its fruit good; or make the tree corrupt, and its fruit corrupt:for the tree is known by its fruit. Ye offspring of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh. The good man out of his good treasure bringeth forth good things:and the evil man out of his evil treasure bringeth forth evil things. And I say unto you, that every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment. For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned." Matthew 12:31 ff.
For those with questions, let me 'splain it to you. Jesus died for you, to save you from your sins.

Hurry Up and Wait?
The church has an open door! We are called to be a Kingdom of God community that operates in the public interest. It is vital, therefore, that we continually organize ourselves for mission at the same time that we carry out the mission. We have no desire to sit out the game while we think about how to play. Summer is moving on, opportunities are passing by. What are we waiting for? The next rapture?
