2007 December 9- Cut It Off?- for Christmas?!?
This weekend we looked at the passage from Mark 9:42-48 where Jesus says that anything that stands between us and God’s kingdom needs to be removed- his examples include cutting off a hand, foot, or eye if it causes alienation from God. And Merry Christmas to you too! How can this passage take us closer to the Christmas message? Take a listen and see. I used a clip from The Princess Bride where Westley, Inego, and Fesik are storming the castle to set an ominous tone from which to build the message. Sorry for the delay in posting- my internet was down and the morning version of the message wasn’t fully recorded…Â
