On the boy who cried wolf (God) once too often

As you look at the cartoon above, realize that this is the point to which some of our televangelists have brought us. Some of them have the attitude that the Holy Spirit personally informs them of God’s plans. In addition, they cannot resist the desire to one-up those whom they consider to be either liberal or non-Christians. As was pointed out many years ago, it is interesting that these same televangelists do not have the same interpretation when a tragedy strikes their area.

We wonder why Christians are losing their ability to speak into this society. Look again at the above cartoon, then re-read some of the pronouncements of Christian leaders and wonder no more.
