I am sitting here at the Mudhouse drinking some decaf coffee, and I got to wondering. If the rapture happened right now (provided you are an premillennialist), how many of these 50 or so people would still be here?
What about the girl in the SBU t-shirt? Does the shirt show collegiate loyalty or a belief system?
What about the former Rountree student sitting to my left on the couch? Was I a Christ-like presence during his time at Rountree?
How many of the coeds in the study group would be left behind? How many are convinced of their salvation because of a bonfire prayer 10 years ago at Camp Jesus?
Does the elderly gentleman with a cane know Jesus as his personal savior? Was he raised in Southern Baptist church and think that attendance will make the grade?
Why do I sit here and do nothing to discern the answers to these eternal questions? Is the Holy Spirit convicting me to do something, or is my mind just wandering. (Or perhaps I am rationalizing my mind is wandering to oppose the conviction of the Holy Spirit.)
Christianity is a whole lot easier on the couch at home.
