It looks like evangelism has been relegated to cutesy slogans, and tongue in cheek expressions.
We think we're being relevant and clever by speaking at their level.
We're not.
The only ones who find this neato are those already in the pews.

My jaw dropped when I saw this thread title. Not only did they change the words of the NLT Bible verse, they took it out of context. These people will reap what they sow. I hope the filthy place goes bankrupt. God willing.

Oh and here is the FULL verse in context. Show me where it says "strip for me". Utter nonsense.

"Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a huge crowd of witnesses to the life of faith, let us strip off every weight that slows us down, especially the sin that so easily trips us up. And let us run with endurance the race God has set before us."

Most churches are a lost cause, this shouldnt surprise the lukewarm and dead to God Christian world who love to mix the holy with the profane, but bottom line is they do not preach the truth, and have no fear of God and His judgement, so these slogans will attract more dead to God people, being taught a dead to God message promising them liberty while thay are addicted to sin, and worldliness!

They will not endure sound doctrine!
2Ti 4:2 Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.
2Ti 4:3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;
2Ti 4:4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
I am seeing this powerful warning from the Lord through His beloved servant Timothy, coming into fruition today! The time has come and has been here for quite a while I am afraid, where the professing Christian world will NOT endure sound doctrine, nor even seek it with all their heart and soul as commanded. They will seek out their worldly pleasures, pastimes, and worst of all their favorite bible pundit that tell them what they want to hear, and NOT what can transform their souls into true saints for God!
They form groups, who love to cast dispersions on the few who love them enough to give them the truth, the bitter truth, which is very difficult for them to swallow yet alone digest in their minds that has been polluted by the ways of the world, and filling their itching ears with many lies and errors telling them that they are soundly saved, while they still wallow in sin, worldliness and disobedience!
They have totally turned from the truth, and hate any that is given to them, but will turn on to all the fables and lies being sold today, they are goats being led to the slaughter, as they think they are at peace with God, when in reality they are dead to Him and His word!
They refuse to come out and be separate, but instead encourage others who are searching to join them in their games, refuse to give them truth, because they cannot give them what they do not possess!
But the few who bring them the harsh truth are despised, and this is a tale tale sign what mindset they are in as they snarl, and cast dispersions on the bearers of truth, calling them names, while they themselves are still carnal sold under sin!
So this shows me how much they love their worldly ways and pet sins, where any truth that can transform their souls is cast out the door along with any discernment, conviction or humility to receive the implanted word that can save them from their demise!
I praise God for the few who can see through this strong delusion God promised to send to those who do not love the truth, and are coming out of the spirit of error into the spirit of truth, accepting the harsh reality that the few of the few will be saved as predicted by Jesus Himself!
Mat 7:13 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:
Mat 7:14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

Apparently those who put this up didn't quite think this through.
 
Yeah stilly i've seen too many of his posts. A lot of people copy and paste and copy and paste. ANNOYING.
Jimmers, I approve of that GIF :O
A reply to this post in general: I've never understood silly church signs like that. I was in atlanta a few years ago. HarpyEagle may have seen it. I'm not sure. But it said "Jesus: 'Party in my house. I'll provide the wine."' Some people took that literally.
