Pragmatism and Blessing
September 12, 2006
Sometimes an argument is put forward to justify some thing or method. “God is blessing it, it can’t be bad.”
But this is a mistake. There can be no doubt that God blessed the death of Christ –He blessed it with the resurrection. Yet people crucified the Lord of glory. How bad is that?

Pretty bad.
Reminds me of how God “blessed” Pharoah’s army in chasing Israel through the Red Sea. I could see the commanders then saying, “praise our god, he has made the ground dry for our pursuit.”
Sometimes he greases the rails to destruction.

Vic, I like that. I’ll have to tattoo that on my back.

Ruben, that would look good right beneath the Lev. 19:28 tattoo.

Tattooing is the next level of witness wear!
