Assassins for Jesus
If Jesus did just what this market basket of "Christian" preachers (and in that basket you can find Dobson, Parsely, Robertson, etc.) want him to do, i.e.; return, what do you think he would say?
I don't claim any special knowledge in this area, nor do I think I am high on the rapture's A-list, but I cant help but think that for most of my 54 years this same bunch has making a living off the fear of God's vengeance.
Is the market so competitive these days in the religious industry that in order to keep a job they have to out shout each other? Be more "Apprentice" like in the over the top performance? There used to be a smarmy TV preacher with a bad toupee in Ohio, Earnest Angely, of the Angels Grace Cathedral, who would do "healings" by sticking his finger in someone's ear until the seal was almost airtight, then pulling it out with a "pop", shouting "Out, Devil!". The dazed recipient of this "healing", having their eardrum streched like a balloon was then whisked offstage (and probably to the local ER). Now that was entertainment!
Contrast that to Pat Robertson and his "700 Club", pronouncing that Chavez should be whacked beacause he doesn't like us and he has oil, Dobson claiming in his pamphlets that he will reveal the signs that your child could be gay and how to stop it, and how can we forget Rod Parsely being "Silent No More" on why we need to kill the Muslims (note to Rod- you are a lame white guy, you can't dance like a Black preacher, don't try- it's embarrassing to all).
Somehow I can't help but think if Jesus did show up today, he'd buy the stripper a drink and turn to the "Apprentices" and say:
You're Fired.
