If you have told one lie, that makes you a liar. If you have stolen one thing, that makes you a thief. JESUS said; if you look at a person with lust, you commit adultery in your heart! Ever used GOD's name in vain; then you are a blasphemer and can't enter GOD's kingdom! Rev 21v8 says; "All liars will have their part in the lake of fire!" The bible says; No thief or adulterer will inherit GOD's kingdom! You broke GOD's laws; but JESUS paid your fine! Repent, and trust the Savior!
about 50 minutes into this sermon Mark does a riff on the "false Christian theology of greatness" that is one of the best things I've heard about the prosperity gospel ever. "that's like, 'I punched myself in the head to get a jelly bean.'" was hoping to see that here among the clips
"we worship a broke, homeless, virgin, murder victim thinking all our dreams will come true"
Even though I'm not a christian, I couldn't help but appreciate this man's very prudent and wise message. His ideas seem to be well developed from personal experience, observation, and reading expert's opinions.
I respect his criticism of irresponsibility, weakness, and other beliefs that suffocate life. Any call to personal responsibility and owning one's freedom to lucidly create through sustained purposeful effort inspires human strength. But its not a duty to god, but a will to power.
I can't recommend the book he's referring to 'Rescuing Ambition' by Dave Harvey enough. I'm a young preacher and was seriously confused why I kept killing my ambition when I was trying to kill my pride. This book is a must read.
@neanam I agree. The bigger and stronger I get at the gym, the more I learn about the Bible, the more I grow spiritually; the more I feel full of myself, and feel great. Pride isn't good, but I just gotta pray for that humility. God bless.
So, you're saying, be great... but not because I wanna be great. Because God tells me that I was meant to be great for Him. That I'd point everyone to Him through what I do.

Boy have I been acting like a selfish idiot.
