Excerpts:

"Okay, let's imagine a dead man laying on the floor in your house for a moment. I know it's a gross thought, but let's just pretend. Well, you're not too fond of him being there so you scream out 'get up!' but unfortunately he doesn't move. You've got quite a mess on your hands don't you? So you play him some Kenny G...nothing happens...You show him some Thomas Kincade pictures... nothing...You put on your Riverdance CD...nothing. The problem is that he's dead, and no matter what you do he's not going to get up and walk away! Just as a dead man cannot get up and walk, so a man (or woman) who is 'dead in sins and trespasses' cannot respond to the call of the gospel unless he (or she) is first made alive. So how are we going to get that dead man to get up and walk off of Grandma Fanny's antique rug? It's going to take a miracle."

This blog is quite a ways from "Ave Verum Corpus" and Siberian Grits. Very fun.
Now I wonder if there is anti-Armenian software as well...

Anti-Armenian? I know there's a couple of schisms and a reformation between the Eastern Orthodox and us Protestants, but we are brothers and sisters in Christ.... ;)

Hard to laugh at, because I saw "Christianity for Dummies" and "Christian Prayer for Dummies" in Books-A-Million the other day. I grieve. O! How I grieve!

You crack me up - I have a bad day if I don't visit your site.

In case you need my permission, you may come out of the box whenever you want to.

I believe this book was specifically designed for Ergun Caner, Nelson Price, Dave Hunt, and Norman Geisler.
