Two Emails
This morning I got, besides all the usual ads, two emails that caught my attention. They were both about comedians but they could not have been more different.
The first one I opened had a video of Steve Harvey in what looked like a basketball arena, a lot of people there. Steve was talking about what he would say if he had the pleasure of introducing Jesus Christ on his second coming. As he started his introduction, people were standing up and waving, obviously loving what he was saying about the king of kings. At the end the camera panned across the arena showing thousands of people that were worshiping Jesus, at the end of a secular comedy act. It was wonderful.
The next email I opened was about Kathy (D-List) Griffin giving her acceptance speech at the Emmy awards. She made quite clear that Jesus had nothing to do with her getting the Emmy and ended with “suck it Jesus! This award is my god now!” The other people on stage were laughing, obviously agreeing with her as she dissed Jesus.
I was cheered by the first video, saddened by the second. How long ago would it have been when neither event would have occurred? I may be showing my age, but in my younger days I believe that anyone saying what Ms D-List said would have been out of work, as far as entertainment goes. Nobody would stand to hear that trash. By the same token, what Steve Harvey said probably would not have been said in a venue like that simply because being a Christian was a social norm, going to church was what people did, regardless of whether they believed or not.
The world was not truly polarized as it is now. You either love Jesus or you hate him. If you do not love Jesus, you will probably do something like Kathy Griffin did to show how cool and with it you are because that is what is expected in the media today. In the email was a call to boycott her shows. I am not sure how effective that would be. I boycott her shows already because they are trashy and not worth watching.
Is this another sign of how close Jesus it is to coming back?

Hey brother… we are thinking the same!
It is the new CULTure!
It is a sad commentary,,, and hurts my heart to know that I and many others chose to spend our treasure on the furtherance of this CULTure of death!
God bless!
The polarization is everywhere. You used to be able to pledge allegiance to God and country. Now you have to choose. Are your taxes used to support things you do not support like abortion and stem cell research? Did the 12 bucks you paid to sit in a dark room and have your eyes tickled go to support an anti-Christian propaganda campaign? It is pretty amazing how fast the culture is sliding down the sewer into the grave.
And thank God, that He sent His Son to extend salvation and rescue those stuck in the slide to the sewer!
