Re: 33 Minutes that Will Change You

Thank you T2W.

It has been my experience that kids who are pierced, tattooed, and otherwise kind of freaky looking are quite intelligent and have extra-sensitive feelings. I know several awesome, polite individuals like this. Unfortunately, some of these kids will not step a foot into a church because their looks are rejected...demands were made for them to change long before they even got a good foothold.

Whenever I read/hear a post like this, I'm reminded that if God were in the next room, you, a believer, would most likely run screaming in fear, and not stop until you were out of town--but the same believer would almost surely be very comfortable at satan's presence, prolly even bow. I got Scripture for this.

Perhaps you are projecting your own scripture on yourself? Would you run screaming to the next country if God were in the next room? And where does this come from?

Perhaps you misunderstand my post bbyrd. I am not disparaging those who have tattoos, mohawks, piercings in anyway. I am saying that too many people in our church systems do not wait on people who live a different social culture to plant Christ firmly in their hearts before they are rejected by our church people, solely on the way they look.
