Thoughts on what it looks like to live in the already, but not yet, Kingdom of God, knowing that I will never get it completely figured out, but enjoying the journey and asking people I meet to join me on the Dusty Path that is being a disciple of Jesus.

This means war! Are you a part of it or not?
Last night we watched Jesus Camp.
It was really uncomforable -- on so many levels. It made me so sad. If you have seen it you will know what I mean. It made me sad to see Ted Haggard talking about purity (In no means do I mean to trash him, it was sadness I felt, not condemnation). A short post today, mostly just quotes from the film (they make me sad to type them)
- If you don't open your mouth, the Holy Spirit can't talk.
- I don't need to tell you that we are in a war against culture. . . and we will win.
- Galileo made the right choice by giving up science for Christ.
- Whenever I meet a non-Christian, my soul feels yucky.
- We can't have phony sinners in the army of God.
- This means war! Are you a part of it or not?
The saddest thing about the movie is that maybe once or twice the Christians mentioned Jesus, instead repeatedly it said that Satan is after you, fight Satan, fight against the Godless, fight against the culture.
Now, I know the movie has an agenda, but if you have not seen it, you should -- especially if you are a follower of Jesus.

It is good to know what things are being said out there. It is yet another reminder of the saying: "The greatest enemy of the cause of Christ is Christians."
Well written article.
