Seeing that we all claim to be educated my request for all who respond to Iconoclast is give a biblical answer for your stance. Don't give a bunch of christian jargon, or philosophical answer. If you are nto a christian then those answer are understandable, but if you have been saved by the blood of Jesus the Christ then give some Bible for your answers. 1 Peter 3:15 challenges us to seperate [sanctify] God in our hearts, and always be ready to give a defense to everyone for the reason [hope] that is in you. Don't attack the messenger with open ended words and shallow statements which ahve no biblical substance but instead give sound answers from scholarly research and study. 2 Tim 2:15. Please evryone who answered don't take this as a personal attack, just look at it as a challenge to refute what has been written with real bible answers. Some of you have answered with statemnets of whimsical mysticism, and not solid truth, of which can not be refuted. And I have to ultimetly agree with the young lady, and that is all who claim to be christians we have a biblical charge that goes beyond any org we apart of and that is to go and preach the gospel! Gospel simply means the good news about Jesus. if you are a christian do people say you are a XYZ who happens to be a christian, or do they say you are a christian who happens to be XYZ. Could you let go of anything to have Jesus, would you let go of anything to have Jesus? can you truly say that you have been a God chaser with the same passion, enthusiam, moxy, perserverance, and even dogmatic tenacity, that you pursued XYZ. Just a challenge! This ahs been That Preacha, and in the words of my Pastor just wanted to put somehting on the clothesline of your mind, now let the Holy Spirit blow on it!
