For those interested in looking into the "Looking Glass" of Evangelicals.. |
|
I encourage you to go to www.raptureready.com
You will -- laugh, probably, and cry -- but if you want to *understand* what they think, and think about how to counter it, you have to know what "it" is. Although there are tons of sites out there, this one is a good first start.
An example .... "…I don't expect to be around to see Social Security, so it doesn't trouble me whether or not predictions of its distant future insolvency turn out to be true. Whenever oil prices zoom up, many people worry that we're going to either run out of gasoline or that it will become prohibitively expensive. At the end of each episode, however, the supply and the price always manage to return to more reasonable levels. Because we don't know exactly when Jesus is coming for the Church, I believe it is wise to make long-term plans. The key, I believe, is not to allow ourselves to be distracted by trivial issues. We should concern ourselves mostly with today, and let tomorrow take care of itself."
