Vacation Bible School Is Unbiblical - Part 1

I believe that Vacation Bible School is unbiblical. It's a shame that Baptist churches with all the apostate churches partake in this yearly ritual of bringing in kids for a week at their churches. I have several reasons for why I believe that VBS should not be part of any serious, Bible-believing church. And this is coming from a person who has attended, volunteered, and eventually worked on VBS's at different churches. I'm totally against it. The following post will address point one about why it is unscriptural.

VBS Is Not Fulfilling the Great Commission

Jeffrey Dahmer - NOT Saved, NOT a Christian, and NOT in Heaven!

Jeffrey Dahmer has been revisited in the news lately because his killer, Christopher Scarver, has gone public with his testimony of how and why he killed Dahmer. I thought this deserved some attention because there are many ignorant Christians out there who say we'll see Dahmer in heaven one day. There's a famous interview Dahmer gave the media, and here's a snippet below of his saying he accepted Jesus Christ:

To preface this post, I would like to be completely clear. There are individuals who add "repent of your sins" to the gospel message. I often repeated this phrase without fully understanding what I was saying. Someone eventually pointed out to me that I was wrong. Many Baptists out there may be mindlessly repeating "repent of your sins" for salvation. What they might mean, like I did, is that one must admit he is a sinner. That is is not repenting or turning from your sins. That is simply agreeing with the Scriptures, such as Romans 3:21, that you are, indeed, a sinner condemned to hell. A sinner must recognize that he is one in order to be saved. However, some do not use "repent of your sins" to mean admitting you are a sinner. There are some that actually teach a turning away from or repenting from sins in your life is a necessary component of salvation. Is repentance of sins necessary for salvation? No. Is repentance from trusting in works or a false god necessary for salvation? Absolutely. It's important to separate the two, which I'll do in this post.
