I just finished watching episode 5 of The Boys on Amazon. One of the main characters gave a speech about how the Bible couldn't be right because it was written back when people died in their thirties and they couldn't eat shrimp and sex before marriage was wrong. Oh, and of course all of the Christians portrayed in this show are idiots or just plain evil - exactly like all Christians are portrayed in every single television, movie or book written in America.
What worries me about this is that this, what is shown on television shows, is all that some people ever see about Christianity and the Bible.
Folks, please believe me when I tell you that what they are portraying is completely inaccurate in every way possible. Oh, there are evil people and ignorant people who call themselves Christian. Anyone can call themselves a Christian.
But please do yourself a favor and learn for yourself what is contained in the Bible. Go meet some real Christians. There are several sprinkled throughout our nation and in your own neighborhood.
And parents and grandparents please educate your children and grandchildren - even your neighborhood children. Please talk to them about God, about Jesus, and all of the stories contained in the Bible. Explain to them how God helped the Jews set themselves apart from all the other people in the world. Preparing for Jesus to enter into the world so that He could redeem us with the new covenant. Tell them about the gospel of Jesus Christ.
If you don't - who will?
