If You're Reading This, You're Probably Not at Church. Go to Church.

No, Really. Go To Church.


Are you reading this article right now? If so, I have a question for you. Why are you not at church, worshipping the Lord and listening to His word? Or maybe you are at church, but you're sneaking a peek at your phone during the sermon or the hymns. In that case, I have another question for you. Why are you not paying attention to the service or engaging in fellowship, instead of reading satire? Read my page when you get home.

Don't get me wrong. I'm not saying that reading this article is bad or sinful. In fact, I'm glad that you enjoy my page and find it amusing and maybe even edifying sometimes. I'm also not saying that satire is evil or unchristian. In fact, satire has a long and honorable tradition in the history of Christianity. Did you know that some of the greatest reformers of the church, such as Martin Luther, John Calvin, and others, used satire to expose the errors and abuses of their time? Satire can be a powerful and effective tool to communicate truth and challenge falsehood.

But there is a time and a place for everything. And the time and place for reading satire is not when you're supposed to be in church, paying attention. Church is where you can grow in your faith, find encouragement and support, and experience God's presence and power. Church is where you can learn God's truth, receive His grace, and obey His commands. Church is where you can worship God with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength, and love your neighbor as yourself. No, the church is not a building, but that’s where the church gathers, and we are called to gather together. Yes, you may have a “relationship” with the Creator, and maybe you don’t like “religion,” but stop treating it like “friends with benefits” and go actually spend some quality time together. At church. Notice a trend here? 

So please, go to church. And if you are at church, then be at church. Put down your phone and focus on what's happening in front of you. Great someone new or catch up with an old acquaintance. Pay attention to the sermon. Read my page when you get home.

But don't forget to like, share, and subscribe to my page before you go. And leave a comment below telling me how much you enjoyed this article and how it changed your life for the better.

God bless you. See you next time!

Breaking News: New Movement Claims to Have Discovered the True Meaning of the Great Commission

New Movement Claims to Have Discovered the True Meaning of the Great Commission A new movement of Christians has emerged that claims to have uncovered the true meaning of the Great Commission that Jesus gave his followers in Matthew 28. According to them, Jesus did not command his disciples to make disciples of individuals or churches, but of nations. They argue that the word "nations" in the original Greek means "ethnic groups" or "political entities", and that the goal of the Kingdom of God is to transform the world's governments and societies to conform to God's Law. The movement, which calls itself "The Disciplers of Nations", says that for the past 2000 years, most Christians have been disobeying Jesus by focusing on personal piety, church growth, and social justice. They say that these are secondary issues that distract from the primary mission of discipling the rulers and magistrates of the world. They believe that by converting th...

Epstein's List: A Convenient Distraction

Jesus is King, but the Devil is in the Details In a shocking twist of events, the infamous list of names associated with the late Jeffrey Epstein's sex trafficking ring has been leaked to the public. The list, which contains hundreds of prominent figures from politics, entertainment, business, and sports, has sparked outrage and scandal across the world. However, some experts believe that the release of the list is not a coincidence, but a deliberate attempt to divert attention from the real news: Jesus is king.  According to Dr. Michael Brown, a professor of theology at Harvard University, the list is part of a "satanic conspiracy" to undermine the faith of Christians and distract them from the second coming of Christ. "Jesus is king. He is alive and he is coming back soon. That is the most important news that anyone should care about," Dr. Brown said. "But the devil knows that, and he is using the list to create chaos and confusion among the people of Go...
