A Dickens of a Message

There can be no better message to the modern day evangelical type, Trump loving churches than this from Mr. Charles Dickens: 

"There are some upon this Earth of yours," returned the spirit, "who lay claim to know us, and who do their deeds of passion, pride, ill-will, hatred, envy, bigotry, and selfishness in our name; who are as strange to us and all our kith and kin, as if they had never lived. Remember that, and charge their doings on themselves, not us."

Charles Dickens, A Christmas Carol

Makes me think of Billy Graham Jr who has a commercial on tv here exhorting us to say a simple prayer and accept Jesus Christ into our lives. Don’t think his Jesus is related to mine…

Anonymous: Yeah these people are just part of their own loud heresy. We know better.

I have seen this commercial. It is disgusting on so many levels.
