Repent and believe in the gospel!

"Most people lack true repentance. They lack the true contrition, the true brokenness. They are void of urgent desperation. They don't have a true relationship to Jesus Christ. They just "hang around" Jesus... And they do not know what it means to bow to that which is eternal. To be concerned about that. They want a gospel that doesn't ask for repentance. They want a gospel that has no threats. They want a gospel that allows them to have some superficial attachment to Jesus, but not a bowing to His absolute sovereignty at any cost. They want a gospel that fixes them in this world to make them more comfortable. That's not it. And that's not what Jesus offers."
John MacArthur

He became furious and very angry - rant

Ok, You can probably tell I completely ripped the title for this post completely out of context (Nehemiah 4:1). I saw the following clip on you tube after watching a clip about the evangelical manifesto. At first I was angry when I saw how these men were mocking Christians. Then my anger focused on the Christians that they were mocking. I was mad that people in the name of Christ were doing things that make the world say "see they only want money" or "see God wants your $1000 dollars commitment and he will fix any problems you have". I know as Christians we will be mocked and that is fine I take joy in that like the apostles did (Acts 5:41). When I see my faith mocked not because someone is preaching the gospel in public, worshiping the lord, or publicly reading their bible on lunch or something like that it makes me angry VERY ANGRY!
