The real inconvenient truth for all, especially Christians.

World: "we don't have to go to church to be close to God."

Bobby: How is that working for you?

God: (via Romans 12:4-8 )

Just as each of us has one body with many members, and these members do not all have the same function, so in Christ we who are many form one body, and each member belongs to all the others.We have different gifts, according to the grace given us. If a man's gift is prophesying, let him use it in proportion to his faith. If it is serving, let him serve; if it is teaching, let him teach; if it is encouraging, let him encourage; if it is contributing to the needs of others, let him give generously; if it is leadership, let him govern diligently; if it is showing mercy, let him do it cheerfully.

Bobby: You might be able to be "close" to God without going to church, but how are you going to operate your part of the body of Christ if you don't ever join the rest of the parts? An ear detached from the body is useless. I encourage everyone(even more for those who already believe) to read the bible with an open mind, and to seek God's calling for you in the body of Christ, and then go join the body and begin a new work. American Christians' complacency for the body of Christ pains me and makes me weep.

Jesus: (via Revelation 3:16-17)

So, because you are lukewarm–neither hot nor cold–I am about to spit you out of my mouth. You say, ‘I am rich; I have acquired wealth and do not need a thing.’ But you do not realize that you are wretched, pitiful, poor, blind and naked

Bobby: Michael Moore has an inconvenient "supposed' truth and it creates a mass following and controversy, and there is another inconvenient truth, lukewarm is not a good status in the kingdom of Christ. Who is willing to follow this inconvenient truth, even if it means being a part of the biggest controversy of all time. (Good VS. Evil)
