The vast majority of teens – regardless of gender, ethnicity, faith, or other characteristics – has been personally exposed to the story. For instance, even a large majority of teenagers from groups that have objected most stridently to the stories of wizards and witchcraft have indulged in this fantasy world. Three-quarters of all church-going teens (77%) and born again Christian teenagers (78%) have seen or read Potter.”

A Theology of Suffering, Part 3: Faith In the Presence of God
As I was on the road, I saw a light from heaven, brighter than the sun, blazing around me and my companions. We all fell to the ground, and I heard a voice saying to me in Aramaic, ‘Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me? It is hard for you to kick against the goads.’ Then I asked, ‘Who are you, Lord?’ ‘I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting,’ the Lord replied.

Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace,

Both Moved By the God of Heaven
In a dream I was in
The ransomed Church of God
Among the boys asleep like Samuel
Standing man of God
The time arrived for him to speak
And he eyed for us to leave
Showing him the due respect
To the back did I retreat
A quote from the remnant broadcast
“Separation from God, outer darkness”
The burning lake’s ineffable terror!
But they wouldn’t call the error
The last of the Baptist washers
Took a time to speak
He didn’t stand upon the stage
But stood nearby to preach
His books are for Pentecostals
As well as for the Baptists
Either way it’d be a win
Although with lots of tension
Both were tied up in the Spirit
Both moved by the God of Heaven
Both in the same fight against
The world, the flesh, and Satan
Manhood According to the Bible
Be thou strong therefore, and shew thyself a man; and keep the charge of the Lord thy God, to walk in his ways, to keep his statutes, and his commandments, and his judgments, and his testimonies, as it is written in the law of Moses, that thou mayest prosper in all that thou doest, and whithersoever thou turnest thyself.
–1 Kings 2:2-3 (KJV)–
Endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.
–2 Timothy 2:3 (KJV)–
Warnings About Perverts In the Church
Men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; HAVING A FORM OF GODLINESS, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. For of this sort are THEY WHICH CREEP INTO HOUSES, AND LEAD CAPTIVE SILLY WOMEN LADEN WITH SINS, LED AWAY WITH DIVERS LUSTS, ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
–2 Timothy 3:2-7 (KJV)–
