The Revelation:  "You know, it is what it is!"
Tuesday, July 31, 2007, posted by Steve McCranie - (34:34)

  The Revelation!
Ah, classic, Paula Abdul, American Idol, pop logic.  But, it's true when applied to the literal interpretation of the Scripture. 

Or, to put it another way:

When the literal sense makes good sense,
Seek no other sense,
Lest it lead to nonsense.

Why don't we take a look at the importance of the literal interpretation of the Bible together.  Shall we?.

  Note:  This is a study of Revelation 3:1-6

The Revelation:  "You're Dead!"
Wednesday, July 25, 2007, posted by Steve McCranie - (29:27)

  The Revelation!
Remember Ivan Drago, the Russian boxing machine in Rocky III?  Sure you do. Do you remember his chilling words to Apollo Creed and the Italian Stallion?

To Apollo, right before their first fight, "I must break you."   Then, to Rocky, at the beginning of their last and final round, "You're dead."

Chilling words.  Kinda like what the Lord said to the church at Sardis.  Really.  No lie.
Why don't we take a look at them together.

  Note:  This is a study of Revelation 3:1-6

The Revelation:  The Downside of Love
Monday, July 2, 2007, posted by Steve McCranie - (38:02)

  The Revelation!
"Downside?  What downside?" you ask. "How can there be a downside to love?"

Simple.  Sometimes love, if wrongly focused, can turn into misplaced loyalty... uh, which almost always leads to a profound tolerance of sin.  And just think, we do all this under the guise of "love". 

Does that seem harsh to you?  Maybe heartless?  A bit intolerant? 

Well, it is.  And it comes from the very lips of the Lord.

Tune in to find out more...

  Note:  This is a study of Revelation 2:18-29

The Joy of Believing the Lie

“I’m completely in favor of the separation of Church and State.
My idea is that these two institutions screw us up enough on their own,
so that both of them together is certain death.”
George Carlin (1937- )

     I am keenly aware of the fact that you may be wondering about a guy who would write a book entitled, Love Jesus, Hate Church. You probably have some questions, maybe many questions, about the origins of a book that makes people as uncomfortable as Love Jesus, Hate Church has proven to do.
     You may be asking yourself, "How can you be a Christian and use the words Love and Hate and Jesus and Church all in the same sentence?  It just seems so wrong."
     And, you're right. It does seem wrong.
     True.  But wrong.

     Yep, I would probably be wondering the same thing if the tables were turned and I found myself in your shoes.

     So, let me see if I can shed some light on who I am and why I do what I do by telling you a bit about myself and how I came to write Love Jesus, Hate Church.  Let me share with you, oh, how shall I put it— the joy of believing the lie. I believe this will give you a better grasp of who I am and why I wrote Love Jesus, Hate Church.
