Unwitnessing Jehovah's Witnesses

Image
I just had an amazing conversation with two Jehovah's Witnesses. I was not expecting to run into them today. I pulled up to the store and looked up to see them right in front of me. I couldn't say, "not today Lord." We talked for thirty minutes and by the end of the conversation I had told them that the Watchtower Society was a false prophet and the "Good News" they shared with me is a false good news (gospel). Still, they shook my hand and the man said that I was a nice pers on! Please pray for this couple, I really believe the Lord has been working on the husband's heart. Below is a video I did about Beth Sarim which is one of the organization's false prophecies and which I talked to the couple about. Also, if JW's ever come to your door and you're unsure of what to say, just LISTEN to the message they initially share with you. Book a "Bible Study" with them and when they come by ask them where in the New Testament do you ...

Christianity and the Tattoo Phenomenon (a social satire essay)

Image
I dare you, just do it. Walk down a busy street and count how many people you see who do not have a tattoo. And when you think you have spotted a person lacking one, without embarrassment ask them, “Excuse me, but I’m curious if you happen to contain a tattoo on your person?” I bet you the answer you will receive will be a positively “YES!” or maybe a more hesitate, “Uhmm yeahh??” Nevertheless, the majority of people today contain at least one tattoo. I am curious to know if we have asked ourselves, “Why?” What is it with our culture desiring to mark our bodies? Now, take a walk into your local church, mega church, mini church, you name it, walk in it. Do you see a difference? I certainly have not. It seems to me this tattoo fad has also permeated the church culture. The popularity of tattoos has increased, even among evangelical Christians who claim their main reason to get one is to be a witness for Christ. Is it necessary to receive a tattoo in order to be a witness for Christ? Esp...

180 Movie

The first time I watched ‘180’ I got the chills. I was completely shocked how the people interviewed in the beginning of the video had not heard of Adolf Hitler. As George Santayana said, "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it." I believe education about the Holocaust should be mandatory for all children. Many people view the Holocaust as a horrific event and claim to value human life. These same people in their next breath will defend the killing of innocent babies in their mother's womb. The justifications for abortion are jaw dropping.  Most of the things people said in defense of abortion in 180 seemed more like rhetoric; "It's not a baby", “killing the baby is okay if it came from rape", "It's just a fetus”, “every situation is different", "abortion is okay if the baby has birth defects". If I followed the logic of these individuals, then it would be right for a mother to kill her child at tw...
