IF that clip was intended to address true believers, then it is most relevant. However, IF that presentation was meant to be a universal statement intended for all indiscriminately, it is a lie of the Evil One and serves his agenda to deceive the world which is under God's wrath and judgment. Since there was no indication (that I could see) who it was to be applied to, I have serious reservations about it. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/scratchchin.gif" alt="" />

Pilgrim,
A clip like this is only understood by believers. Believers are to be salt and light. Since I posted it here on the Highway I would assume you would know who it was intended for.
I believe its intentions are relevent to all believers.

I believe its intentions are relevent to all believers. Wes, I agree that it is relevant to all believers, which I also stated. But that wasn't my question. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> My concern is the author's intended audience. Since there was nothing that I could see that stated it was to be an encouragement to true believer's in the Lord Jesus Christ, one could easily conclude that the message of that clip is intended for all without discrimination. Because it is on the WWW, anyone can view it. And without anything specifically mentioned as to its intended audience, the message is suspect, to say the least. My criticism has nothing to do with you but with the potential deception of the message conveyed by the clip. I see it as nothing more than a new slant to "God loves you and may have a wonderful plan for your life." <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/rolleyes2.gif" alt="" /> In His grace,
simul iustus et peccator

I agree with you there Pilgrim, I am wondering though, can a believer be encouraged by this clip?
