Deeper Still

Did anyone see Pat Robertson's "apology" for his comments concerning the president of Venezuela? He said that "take him out" does not neccessarily mean kill it could mean "kidnap". Pat said that his comments were taken the wrong way. I would comment on this but I don't think I need to.

Pat Robertson - I don't know what our doctrine on assassination is (can you have a doctrine on that?), but if he thinks we are trying to assassinate him, maybe we just should...

I think that is fairly clear...

1 Timothy 3:1-3: The saying is trustworthy: If anyone aspires to the office of overseer, he desires a noble task. Therefore an overseer must be above reproach, the husband of one wife, sober-minded, self-controlled, respectable, hospitable, able to teach,
not a drunkard, not violent but gentle, not quarrelsome, not a lover of money.

Could you imagine if Christian leaders actually took this to heart?

Revolutionary!
I can only imagine what an impact on our culture the church would have if more people read the Bible. We're so consumed by tradition, self-help, CGM, polictics etc. that we're no good to anyone.
