Title: The New Christian Fire Worshipper?
Post by: Tony N on October 14, 2008, 03:29:47 PM
I guess there really is nothing new under the sun. The ole pagan fire worship is gaining ascendancy once again but this time is being clothed in new garb by Christians.

They say that God is fire and say that the lake of fire is God since God is fire.

So this morning I was thinking about all the millions of people who light their cigarettes this morning around the world. They should pause and worship that little flame at the end of their match or Bic lighter. After all, that fire, some would claim, is God.

And the next time you have a weenie roast? Christians around the world should bow down and worship the fire in that camp fire for, according to them, that fire is, yep, you guessed it, G-O-D.

So the next time you see a fire burning down a house, don't stop to help the kiddies inside. Get out of your cars and bow down and worship the fire God and thank this fire God that He has chosen these little kiddies to consume.

Forest fires threatening your neighborhood? Don't call the fire department! Bow down and worship the fire! After all, it will purge you of your sins and make you worthy of God's fiery presence! Who needs Jesus? Just thank the fire God He has chosen your neighborhood for salvation! This adds new meaning to "being on fire for the Lord!"

No more descriptive of christianity than than those universalists psychotic enough to think God would actually save everyone.  I mean what a bunch of devil worshippers they are.   :laughing7:

Yea, and we are hell bound for actually believing God when He says He will save all. Go figure!  :happygrin:

Sorry, I'm not sure who Laird is, although I used to know a special education teacher with that last name.

So those Christians know the difference between a spiritual fire and the fire on the end of your match.
Likely they aren't the pagans you accused them to be in your first message....
