Left Behind Shorts

➡ Average Reading Time: < 1 minuteIn a bit of tongue and cheek at the Left Behind series expense, I found the picture below several years ago on a religious sales page. I guess it was on sale for those who take the Left Behind theological position seriously so that after the rapture, friends could be readily spotted by the rear end of their shorts. I guess in a real sense that after the rapture, you could say that these sweat shorts could be worn if one needed to “turn the other cheek,” even though it might be too late to be practicing such a thing. What I didn’t see on the sales site was if this product had been autographed by either the Late Tim LaHaye (d. July 25, 2016) or Jerry Jenkins to pad their increasing income. But, then I thought, who are those boys’ gonna leave all that money to when they are raptured? An inquiring mind wants to know!

Jesus Followers

 

There are many synonyms to use for the word believer, which is the most common word for a person who has "converted" to follow Jesus. I have chosen "Jesus follower(s) or follower(s) of Jesus instead of the word believer in these presentations to allow the reader an opportunity to move away from the idea of believer which conjures up the possible thought of "ascent" to a set of doctrines that have been assembled by different groups over the centuries and show up in this day and age as a set of statements posted on web sites and other written material. These sets of beliefs are suggested by many as the ones that one should ascent to so that upon death the one who assents can go to heaven, i.e., just believe and you are good to go. Jesus followers/followers of Jesus suggest an action that one should take. Remember, Jesus told his disciples to follow him. Yes, belief is important, but one must move beyond belief to action.
