Who do you say that I Am?

I can't say enough good things about this post. I simply love how poignantly and blunty DeYoung trashes the variety of psuedo-spiritual attitudes among evangelicals and people in general who have deluded themselves into thinking they actually know what they are talking about.

God knows we like to creat idols. Why else would it be forbidden in the Second Commandment? Even when God has graciously revealed His character to us in his Word and His Son, we still like to pervert it and mold it into whatever shallow, non-judgmental characteristics best fit our pathetic idea of what God should be like.

Man, we are full of ourselves.

(I especially like his mockery of the " Boyfriend Jesus" and the mystical-spiritual worship nonsense that goes on and is advocated by the modern church)
