WWE icon Hulk Hogan has been baptized.

The thing about this is that he’s a public figure who’s been publicly baptized into the faith. He will be held up to an impossible standard by the modern pharisees, and mocked and ridiculed for his pronouncements. He would have been better to have kept this quiet.

I wish him the best. If I never hear about it again, he will have succeeded.

Wouldn’t it be neat to hear the celebration in heaven for each soul secured?

Yeah, he’s been a professed Christian since the 1980’s.

Good point. During the ‘70s quite a few celebrities were born again and celebrated their new faith publicly.

As soon as they did, the pharisees gave them such a hard time for every real or presumed indiscretion that they soon chose to remain silent.

About 30 years ago ... our pastor mentioned on a Sunday morning how he had been seated next to a very famous person (Hulk Hogan) on recent return flight from conference (in Chicago, I think).
I was sitting there thinking, “well, I sat with the Creator of the universe this morning while I was reading His Word”.

Me thinks the Hulk is very worried about what he precieved to be an eternity in Hell. Most people just go ahead and go to hell. I do hope he is sincere....
