Barfing at the Truth

Could you imagine working with someone and suddenly finding out that they did not believe that two plus two equaled four? What would your response be? Would you say "well I believe that 2+2=4 but I respect your opinion that it doesn't".

Let me ask you to consider your answer carefully because your response may shock you. For the sake of maintaining the relationship with the person with the faulty beliefs would you make the above statement?

Further, you may not realize that you likely do this very thing everyday. Every time we tell someone the truth and they do not accept it, we find ourselves wanting to say that we don't agree with them but we respect their right to their own opinion because no one knows the full truth. When we do this we negate the word of God.

The fact that Jesus died for our sins and made a way for us to enter into His Kingdom is just as true as 2+2=4. Now, while it is very hard to find someone who doesn't believe that 2+2=4, it is not difficult to find someone who disagrees that Jesus is our Savior.

These people are everywhere, all just waiting to barf at the first sign of the Truth. Even among Christians it is not hard to find people who do this. For instance the pre-tribulation rapture is a complete lie, it will not happen. Yet Christians by the millions barf each time they hear it.

If you haven't read my article on the rapture it can be found on this website under the name "Where the Eagles be gathered" It takes a close look at the doctrine and I would appreciate it if you would quickly read it if you still believe in the rapture.

Also visit my pages on the various holidays, those links can be found on the sidebar. I don't know how many times Christians have barfed at the fact that Christmas is completely pagan. Let's not forget about Easter either, it too is pagan through and through. There is NO doubt about this, it is NOT my opinion, it is simple plain fact. Yet, time after time Christians react angrily when they hear these facts.

Just think about the ramifications of doing this. Do you barf at truths like this? Stop yourself for a moment and think about it. Christmas and Easter are PAGAN festivals and this can be proven easily with everyday encyclopedias and internet searches. You can say that the Church made them holy or some other nonsense but these facts cannot be honestly denied.

Yet rather than correct your ways, rather than line yourself up with the Truth, you decide instead to continue following the PAGAN ways. You make up all sorts of excuses to continue doing what you are doing and you find NO reason to correct your actions.

When someone tells you these truths, you make barfing sounds. "Doooon't youuuuuugh tell me Christmas and Easter are Paguuuughn. uuuuuuugh! Youuuuugh take things tooooo far. bluuuuuuugh! Get out of here, I don't like youuuuugh!"

If you read that phonetically you can understand why I call it barfing at the truth. When you hear it it sounds like you are upchucking all over the carpet.

Just imagine the person that believes that 2+2=5. Imagine that person doing the same thing. "Doooon't youuuuuugh tell me 2+2=4. uuuuuuugh! Youuuuugh take things tooooo far. bluuuuuuugh! Get out of here, I don't like youuuuugh!" That is exactly what you sound like when you barf at truths, any truth.

Now this isn't a pitch to get you to stop celebrating Christmas or Easter or even to stop believing in the false rapture but rather to have you stop and consider for a moment what you are doing. Do you love the truth? Most people quickly say yes but then reject it when they hear it.

So this article is a simple test. When you hear the truth about the rapture, Christmas and Easter do you accept it or do you squirm around until you can figure a way out of it? Take your time and consider what I have told you, make sure I am telling you the truth, then decide. However, when you see the truth do you respond by barfing at it?

After all, you said you love the Truth but perhaps you only love what you "believe" the truth is and not the real Truth, in-spite of all the supporting facts.
