Hook, Line, Sinker
By Gary Spangler on Jun 16, 2010 in General

I bought it; I can’t believe I bought it. I really can’t believe I bought it. But you know what, I bought it. How could I have bought it? I am in awe that I actually bought it and the crazy thing is I bought it a long time ago. The whole time I thought I had all the facts so I bought it. I’m not sure how many people saw me buy it. Since I’ve had it so long, I wonder if I sold it to others. That would take the cake. Everyone around me seems to have bought it as well. I guess I can use that excuse. I just smiled as I listened to the salesman and hung on every word. I know the salesman was loving every minute of it. I really didn’t ask any questions or maybe I just didn’t ask the right questions. But how do you know what questions to ask. Still, I bought it; hook, line, sinker, rod, reel, the cork handle and everything. I bought it all.
What? Oh what was it that I bought. I didn’t tell you?
The new and improved Jesus. That’s right. That guy wearing the long, white flowing robe with the beautiful, wavy lady Clairol hair. This incredible guy who is walking around carrying a sign that says, “Peace Man.” The one who is trying to make everyone feel OK.
It was a lie. As one put it, “a lie from Hell!” Jesus is not this wimpy personality that went around whispering, “it’s OK. Whatever you need to do in this world to make peace; you just do it.” No, Jesus was a MAN; a really tough guy. A man who came to pit father against son and son against father.” He did not come to bring peace, but a sword.
SO before you buy this wimpy creation from man…take a look at the real thing; a tough guy who was made by God.



He walks on water, commands storms, casts out demons, makes whips from cords, over turns tables, and ascends into the heavens (yes, He can fly!) Doesn’t sound wimpy to me!
I praise God he is on our side! ! !
