Christians need to get into the Bible and away from new interpretations of it. We also need to be very vocal in telling friends and family that the Bible is truth. <>< ><> Nathele Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Celebrities won't believe in Jesus, but they'll believe that 75 million years ago an evil galactic ruler, named Xenu, solved overpopulation by bringing trillions of people to Earth in DC-8 space planes, stacking them around volcanoes and nuking them. Then the souls of these dead space aliens were captured and boxed up and taken to cinemas where they were shown films of what life should be like, false ideas containing God, the devil and Christ and told to get ill. After that they supposedly clustered together and now inhabit our bodies, and that if they rid themselves of these body thetans then they will be healthier and will gain special powers like mind-over-matter? A lame science fiction novel becomes one of the fastest growing religions among celebrities! If I became a celeb, and someone told me that story with a straight face, I'd laugh them out of town!

Allow me to say she may not be a feminist, racist or a sell out. I don't know her, but I know I don't like her attitude on certain issues. It amazes me how people think an opinion is law just because someone is sitting in front of a camera.....

This is only part of the beginning of what we will witness in the end times. I agree about keeping our eyes on God and studying His Word. Only through example will others see Christ in us. They will notice a difference and question how this is. Then we need to be ready with the answer.

I know part of it is a black-cultural thing, but she's also tapped into a huge market out there: spirituality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
