All I can say is... WOW! I don't even know what to think about that.

How many times did he say "follow the teachings of the Bible"? He presents a "true Christian" as a full time evangelist with only one concern on his mind--to reach the lost. And yes, we should have that concern, but Jesus said to preach "as you are going." I heard nothing of the Gospel of Grace in his presentation.

I didn't think much of it. The ending took me by surprise, but I guess he nailed the popular perception of what we are all about. Now, if we could get people past the popular perception and get them on to what Jesus said. John 6:47, anyone???

And that, brothers and sisters, is the kind of foolishness you get people who insist on denying biblical theism. A good illustration of any as the length people will go to avoid acknowledging basic truths.

Jac,

Don't forget Luke 14:26-28.

But I will agree that the main goal of a Christian isn't simply evangelism.
