Very possibly so, JM; of course, my ONLY point was that the web site was (more than ‘a bit’) hyped…thanks for writing.

After seeing a bat breaking presentation today, hearing the gospel, seeing people make a decision for Christ and the follow up, I definitely agree with Graham. People at the beach won’t stop for an evangelist with a Bible, but several stopped to see what was going on and to hear the Word. The Web site may sound a bit hyped, but judgment should be left to God – only He knows the hearts…

It’s all about the “we need a hero” mindset of culture. Christians are not immune; it’s a human issue. Our music stars (i.e. FFH, 4Him, Andre Crouch, SCC, dc Talk, all of them), and ministry teams like Delta Force and the Power Team are all reflections of that, as are the superpowered televangelists who claim that if you have enough faith and give enough money, you, too can be rich.

As I recall, Jerusalem had the same problem and demanded that God give them a king. Saul didn’t work too well, though.

I happen to agree with Sean. What you win them with is what you win them to. Why can’t we just present the gospel and let them decide or reject? But, church has become a place of ‘extra curricular activities’ It is though God isn’t capable of bringing people to Him through the preaching of the Word. And, so man has to put in His touch- a little help for God, who needs no help from us.

Good questions on a topic that I confess I haven’t thought of much. Thanks.

I found this post through the Christian Carnival.
