Twinkies??

Wednesday October 24th, 2 Timothy 3: 3-5 You're going to find that there will be times when people will have no stomach for solid teaching, but will fill up on spiritual junk food—catchy opinions that tickle their fancy. They'll turn their backs on truth and chase mirages. But you—keep your eye on what you're doing; accept the hard times along with the good; keep the Message alive; do a thorough job as God's servant. Spiritual junk food is epitomized in the series, “Left Behind.” Looks like scripture, sounds like scripture, may even taste like scripture, but it leaves a sour taste in your mouth and a sour soul in your very being. It is easy to get all caught up in the “me” theology. Adam and Eve record the first instance with that tree thing. The hard job of scripture is loving others, because let’s face it, it is often the case that those others are not so lovable. That is when it is good to remember that you don’t have to like someone to love them. Loving them is not about them or how they respond, it is about you and how you act toward others.
