Bill Maher has made it clear that anybody who believes in the supernatural is necessarily a mental midget. Somehow, he seems to be saying, it’s OK to believe in God as long as it’s not an “invisible” one that does “magic things” and lives in the sky. He’s not alone in his thinking but he couldn’t be farther from the truth.
As proof that Christianity is not a religion for fools I submit this Sunday sermon given 121/2 years ago by Dr Gene Scott (1929-2005) to his congregation in Los Angeles, California. The subject: The Resurrection of Jesus Christ. As you will see, Dr. Scott was no dummy. He was a scholar and a pastor to pastors. One of his favorite lines was “You don’t have to cut off the top of your head to be a Christian”. Listen to this sermon. as it will be unlike any you’ve likely ever heard. It will soon be clear who the dummy really is.
Dr. Scott ends this sermon with one of his famous “dangles”. If the listener wanted to hear more, he had to return the following session. Fear not, as there are hundreds more hours of teaching and sermons recently made available by one of his devoted students. Spend a few hundred hours as I and many others have done, studying with this remarkable man. Even if you do not become a Christian, you will know that you do not have to be a moron to believe in the Bible!
Had Bill Maher interviewed somebody of the caliber of Dr. Gene Scott for his recent blasphementary he, likely, would have halted production at the very least.
