Welcome to LentFest 2019! the annual tradition where Roman Catholics, Psudo Catholics, and Fallen Catholics play their annual game of My Sacrifice Is Greater Than Yours. Some give up chocolate (my mom's favorite sacrifice), others give up alcohol (my uncles always gave up hard liquor which was probably not that hard because none of them drank hard liquor, but between the three of them they would put away 2 cases of beer a day) I tended to give up riding my bike (which wasn't that hard because Buffalo is a slush covered morass during Lent) I personally am giving up Lent for Lent, which is kind of difficult because I sooo love a good fish fry on Lenten fridays (but logic dictates that if I give up Lent I can have a friday fish fry any day I want)
So why not give up something that everyone loves and let's join our Catholic brothers and sisters in this: let's give up Sin. Let's quit rebelling against God. We love sin so much that God had to send His son down here to walk a few hundred miles in our shoes to show us that a sin free life can be led, then he let himself be killed so our sins were forgiven through Father's grace. I know we want to see Jesus, but I think it will be less traumatic to see Him in His house rather than see Him in His second advent down here.

A guy I used to work with would give up chocolate; he'd bring in chocolate-chip cookies and pull the chips out. Of course there was still residual chocolate. Lent is such a farce.
ReplyDeleteThe LEFT is so hypocritical. R- rate a movie about what 14-yr-olds can get without permission. They just want to hide the truth from their audience.
The "cussing pastor" has proven he is unqualified for the position, and yet his goats will keep him there.
Such deception and apostasy in the Church!!!
Hi Doug,
ReplyDeleteI saw that you recently left a comment on my blog article that you linked above (thanks for doing that!) I also left a reply. Anyway, you might find these two articles relevant to that discussion:
