Why Westburo/Phelps Phails Miserably

I Corinthians 13:

 

4Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

 

8Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. 9For we know in part and we prophesy in part, 10but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears. 11When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me. 12Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.

 

13And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.

Does that sound anything like the gospel according to Westburo?

 

No. Those or the passages that they routinely ignore. This is why they fail. It's why so many big suburban mega-churches fail. When they gleefully pronounce eternal damnation on people, they forget the very spirit of the religion that they supposedly embrace.

 

For them it becomes about money, power and prestige when it is really about the humility of a carpenter that never wrote a book, owned a horse, contributed money to a politician and certainly never went to speaking engagements on a leer jet.

 

Forgive them father for they know not what they do. Now they have more in common with the Roman soldiers that actually crucified him than the followers of Christ.

It's strange how many people conveniently forget that the whole thing with Jesus was that he was wiping the slate clean so why do they keep going back to what was said before.
