One thing that I enjoy doing in the back end of my blog is reviewing the stats page. It shows you all sorts of interesting information about your blog. Not only does it give you the number of visitors, but it also shows how people got to the site, any links to the site that others have put on their sites(Thank you very much by the way), what stories people are reading, and so forth. The one that interests me the most, however, is the category called “Search Engine Terms” this shows me a list of what people were searching for on Google, Yahoo, etc. to get to my site. I can then use this info to try to give those searching more information about the subjects they are searching for.
Two days ago, three people did a search that I just loved; they asked “What would Jesus say to Oprah?” I found that very interesting. What would Jesus say? I thought about this all weekend. I know several things I would like Him to say, but would He? I have come to the conclusion that it is not my place to speak for Him. But if their question was “What would you say to Oprah?” then I would have a few things to say.
Dear Oprah Winfrey,
First off let me thank you for wanting to bring people back to God. This world is spinning out of control with people more interested in the ‘please me now’ mindset that has taken over the planet. People do not often think of God’s plan and reconnecting to God anymore. This is something we really need to change if we want to have a safe place for our children and children’s children. You are working towards this and it is a noble goal! With someone of your influence, and media power, it is great to have you in this battle as a much needed ally.
However, I am concerned with the subjects that you are teaching as Christianity. Some of the topics that concern me the most are from some of the more ‘new age’ views that you have taken about Jesus Christ, sin, and the very basic foundation stones of Christianity. These do include Jesus’ claim to be the son of God, the trivializing of His role in our salvation, and the misleading of His teachings. With Eckhart Tolle at your side preaching his book ‘A new Earth’, you two reduce sin to meaning missing the mark of human existence, and that there really is no sin. This is not the case at all; sin exists more now than ever, and it will take most of us to stand up to it to stop the flood.
I hope that you will research more into what the Bible says is true, and go to a biblical based church and speak to the clergy. I think then you will have a good basis of true Christian beliefs and can join us in righting this ship we call planet earth and taking back the safety of our families.
God Bless,
Hunter
