“sorry Pastor , that’s all we got....we’re human and some of us have to rely on some human peasant ways to express ourselves, unlike the ecclesiastics.
Did pastorbillrandles kick over your sand castle or God? He just presented the Word of God and the statuary, icons and the lucky charms got a thumbs down from God. Don’t shoot us, we’re just the messengers.”
Pastor Randles presented the Word of God. Not his word, but God’s word.
God is trying to protect the people from the false and useless gods they were building for themselves to give them false comfort and assurance.
Just like you are stating now Recovering Ex-hippie. You are relying on “some human peasant ways to express ourselves, unlike the ecclesiastics.”
You have already been expressed by God when He made you. Go out and glorify God and you will find a fulfillment in Him without the need for self expression.
Yeah..you all know what the word of God means and let us peasants know...YOU interpret the bible for us...no, you’re not just the messengers..you’re just the holier than thou translators of the bible...
Christians always get snarky...”kick over your sandcastle” if you dare make any comment except total agreement.
You can keep your elitist christianity... we peasants will just slog along...and we’ll do just fine without you telling us what to do” go out and glorify God “..whatever that means ...oh I forgot, I’m supposed to ask you.
