Bible Note: Dear Brother Hank, Your reply post reminded me of the time I had a captive audience whom I forced to endure more than half an hour speech on how I had been able to achieve so much personal success and happiness... No, just kidding. :-) Actually, the reason the same old lines "sell" so well is because they appeal to the deep roots of our human nature. In fact, any time we find a doctrine that appeals to our pride or our desires, we should watch out! The human heart being what it is, we'll even happily oblige the false teacher by compensating for the inconsistencies of his message! One of these days I'll post on the similarity between Baalism and modern secularism. Its really amazing how similar they are! In Him, Doc |
