Another Jesus FREAK!

Well, there's a guy in New Mexico claiming to be Jesus, yet again. The town is called Strong City where the man claiming to be Our Savior is really Wayne Bent / Michael Travesser who was recently arrested for "sexual contact with a minor."

The thing that frustrates me is that on the Strong City web site, Mr. Bent demonstrates himself to be the meek and lowly Jesus. However, if he'd actually read the Bible or, more importantly, if his followers would actually read the Bible, they would all know that the next time Our Lord returns, He will return:

12I turned around to see the voice that was speaking to me. And when I turned I saw seven golden lampstands, 13and among the lampstands was someone "like a son of man,"dressed in a robe reaching down to his feet and with a golden sash around his chest. 14His head and hair were white like wool, as white as snow, and his eyes were like blazing fire. 15His feet were like bronze glowing in a furnace, and his voice was like the sound of rushing waters. 16In his right hand he held seven stars, and out of his mouth came a sharp double-edged sword. His face was like the sun shining in all its brilliance. (Revelation 1:12-16)

Christ will not be returning as the meek and lowly Jesus, but as the Son of God ready for judgment. In other words, this is the moment at the end of Star Wars when Luke comes back with a bunch of wrath--no hesitations, just disintegrations.

Well, that was fun!
