What a Drag!
Posted by Cory Tucholski on August 12, 2007
I discussed knowing a false teacher/prophet by their fruits in my post about Fred Phelps. Today, we have another shining example in this article. Let’s look at this passage of Scripture:
Now they were bringing even infants to him that he might touch them. And when the disciples saw it, they rebuked them. But Jesus called them to him, saying, “Let the children come to me, and do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of God. Truly, I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God like a child shall not enter it.” (Lk 18:15-17)
The disciples tried to prevent children from coming to Jesus, and Jesus put the smack down on ‘em. He doesn’t want any child hindered from coming to Him. Now, based on some of the typical responses (the fact that “theocracy” is used to categorize that post speaks volumes about the poster’s opinion of religion) to this news item, I can honestly say this action would hinder children from coming to Christ.
This ministry is not bearing good fruit. I state the obvious, I know, but ministries like that are lumped together in the mind of the world, and all Christian ministries end up with the label of “child dragger.”
Finally, I know my title is wrong but I sure couldn’t resist. Someone had to do that joke.
