Christian Television Sucks
I am very happy to be a Christian believer. i don't have a problem telling anyone that i follow Jesus Christ. If they don't like it that's ok. I attend church to worship regularly and fellowship with believers too. But what I have a major problem with is Christian tv stations, satellite networks, big name gospel preachers, teachers, evangelists, bishops, deacons, and elders. They have (here comes a Chris Crane quote, so write this one down) "More dollars than sense, and at our expense". If I paid tithes to a church, it certainly would not be by mail to any of these over inflated egomaniacs on tv today. As I was sitting here trying to kick start my writing for today I turned over to DayStar and TBN, and CBN. UHG!!!. Rod Parsley was on, spitting and sweating all over everything, walking around like a proud rooster of his hen house. He's a Christian believer... and the example people see of Christianity when they are flipping channels.

When I first accepted Christ I watched all of these tv stations, because after all they are christian.. they are talking about Christ aren't they? they are reading the bible on tv.. that's good right? But is it enough, when the world laughs at them and calls our representatives a joke. Then we're considered a joke. and ulimately Jesus is considered a joke. Simple faith doesn't require an allegiance to any of these TV guys. Faith is what happens inside when you accept who Christ really is. Turn the TV off and open the book for yourself. Then take the stuff you read and apply it to your life. Go and worship in some small Christian bible teaching church, somewhere you like, and you'll never need a big auditorium faith healing prophecy prayer meeting fellowship hall devotional reading minister of the gospel of Jesus Christ ever again.
