Dave forwards to the HB a comment from a friend, who shall remain anonymous:
I have a personal relationship with Christ but my Christ is not an ass and He wants everyone to do what makes them happy including gays being allowed to marry
This statement is rich with false assumptions and error but will reward us for paying some attention to it because it captures the “spirit of the age” (Zeitgeist) perfectly. If we understand what this statement says and implies and why it is fundamentally and thoroughly false we may avoid being taken “captive by philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition, according to the elemental spirits of the world, and not according to Christ” (Col 2:8)

All orthopraxic heresy begins with the phrase, “My God wouldn’t...”
There is no “your God.” There is God, who is God, and it is God who says what God would and would not do, would and would not agree to, would and would not support, would and would not require of us. To quote a resident of the White House, period.
Amen. Actually, the author of the idiotic statement has an ass for a christ.
“Christ is not an ass and He wants everyone to do what makes them happy including gays being allowed to marry.”
Jesus condemns homosexuality in Chapter 22 of the Book of Revelations (he calls homosexuals “dogs,” the Jewish term used for them). He says homosexuals and those caught up in sexual immorality will not enter heaven.
“I have a personal relationship with Christ but my Christ is not an ass....”

Stopped reading right there.
Too many other things to do on a Sunday afternoon.
Anytime you give God any attributes that are not true, you are creating a God of your own making, which is idolatry.
O” my goodness. I wonder how much of This foolishness is God going to take?
This piece is an answer to the heresy. Worth reading.
The word “Zeitgeist” is my warning flag to stop reading.
“my Jesus” is invented. I’ve had many folks start their confused apologetics this way. They are teachable most of the time, thank God. Don’t give up on them.
