GodThoughtsWired! &= nbsp; Wednesday, November 17, 2010 Evangelizing the Church in the Age of Delus= ion You are subs= cribed as freebsd-chat@freebsd.org celebrating sin! "Enjoy the passing pleasures of = sin..." Hebrews 11:25 I'll bet you didn't know the Bible said THAT!&= nbsp; Go ahead, look it up! See! I told ya! It's just = another way of saying the motto that "everyone of consenting age in any l= and knows," "What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas."<= /b> As I sit here re-reading the article fro= m the USA Today Newspaper* whose entire premise is the celebration of sin= , I weep for the United States of America. T= he slogan is seven years old now, the article tells me, The key moment came in 2004 when Laura Bush ap= peared on the Tonight Show after a Sin City visit. Jay Leno ask= ed if she'd seen the Chippendales male strippers. Her re= sponse, worth more than $1 million in advertising; "Jay, what h= appens in Vegas, stays in Vegas." "There are no rules here," gushes one sati= sfied customer. "Nowadays, visitors may feel let down if they ha= ven't done what they wouldn't do back home," proclaims the marketing = director of a "sin club" where clients pay $400.00 per hour for..."sin."<= br /> "The city's mayor, a former defense lawyer for gangsters," sob= erly laments that, "The real estate market is in the dumps, but he thi= nks new attractions, such as the downtown Mob Museum-due in fall 2= 011-will lure visitors." Ahh, the celebration of sin.= By now, I trust that many of you are aware that the Bible verse a= t the top of the page? from Hebrews 11:25? I took it completely ou= t of context! Did you look it up? Well, ho= w 'bout ending with a couple of Bible verses that are completely "in" con= text: "There is a way which seems right to a man,= but its end is the way of death." Proverbs 16:25 And, "The wages of sin is death." Romans= 6:23 Always has been...Always will be. Now there's a sl= ogan for ya'. *quotations taken from, The USA Today newspa= per, Friday, November 12, 2010. p.5D. For more informat= ion about the GodThoughts Ministry, click [1]here.
