Eat My Flesh and Drink My Blood!!!

Cannibalism is the single most immoral human act. It is murder PLUS eating human flesh. Christianity takes it to the extreme. Cannibalistic cultures typically eat their enemies or their grandmothers who died naturally. Jesus is asking us to eat Him – the Messiah, God in the flesh. Kill and eat! Drink His blood!

The Difference between Satan and the Church

The law says that if you touch a leper, you are unclean. When the kingdom of God comes in Christ, He touches a leper and makes him clean. Satan was clean until he was found unclean, and the church is unclean until Jesus touches us and we are found clean.

What does it take to be a Christian?

Think about it like a normal person for just a second: how can you say He was sacrificed for sins and then say that if you sin, the sacrifice is no good?

The Cross of Christ Declares that Virtue Does Not Secure Blessing

This was why the “Lord Lord didn’t I” people in the sermon on the Mount were turned away. They equated virtue with earning the bestowal of favor. The cross of Christ severs this tie completely. It says, when you do right, you will be rejected and crucified. It says, if you want to be my disciple, you must bear the cross. The Father God will not necessarily step in and help you in the way and at the time that you think He must. We learn the secret of contentment at the point when it becomes evident that our virtue has not secured our blessing (Philippians 4:12-13).
