Christian can't Gully Creep?

I am no Bible expert but I heard a sermon about this recently and here is the crux of the matter, there is nothing required of the parents either including the absentee father or the abusive mother...the onus is on the child to honour the parentsSolidarity is not a matter of well wishing, but is sharing the very same fate whether in victory or in death.

the hypocracy in Jamaica knows no bounds. Please explain how a nation of so many Christians can be the murder capital of the freaking globe. Maybe just maybe if people were more concerned with Christian actions instead of tangential crap like dances etc. jamaica would be better off. America is the den of the devil but the average american contributes more to charity than any jamaican of whatever economic stripe. Big freaking joke.Originally posted by Sickko View PostComment

Hope you not calling me a hypocrite because I don't believe we are a Christian society. I don't believe the majority of those who live here have any relationship with God. Yes we all know He exist, well most of us as there is a church here that worships the devil and they are allowed full freedom to do what they want, but however I have never believed we are a 'Christian country' in the context that many believe it to be.Solidarity is not a matter of well wishing, but is sharing the very same fate whether in victory or in death.

Respectfully, Rudi, could it be that the pastor believes that the dancing is not tangential but just the top of a slippery slope from which he could descend swiftly from the values she tried to impart to him?
I am neither pious nor righteous. I just happen to respect the honesty and consistency of this woman. She is totally biblical in her pronouncements. Your other comments about Ja having so many christians yet having so much crime actually proves my point. So many christians are inconsistent and hypocritical. I think it was Gamma who. a long time ago, posted something here which made it clear that there is difference between secular christianity, judaism; and actual christians, jews and moslems. This woman, without forcing her son, his being consistent and is pledging to pray. She realizes he is now too old to be made to conform. But, as the bible says, she is giving the issue to God. Now, she can go into the pulpit and suggest to people that they and their families should act Godly without appearing to be a hypocrite

Siccko, he is also human and cannot be expected to be perfect. It is just that since he is one of the most visible christians in the society, some may confuse his human imperfection with intentional hypocrisy, which I think would be unfair. I think his mother is well aware of that.
I think Asafa is a leader and not a follower, Just my thought. He seems to want to fit in and seem cool. His personality is quite unlike Usain's. He may enjoy the dancing but I think he is doing it more to fit in. He could also be quite a genuine christian who happens to get caught up in what he thinks is benign secular celebration. His mother being more spiritual is probably concerned that he might not be aware that starting out with minor secular traditions could lead a weak christian on a path toward more serious secular traditions and away from a christian walk.
Again, I am not being pious or righteous. This is just how I try to see it objectively. I am not arguing against persons, but against ideas or positions."Jah Jah see dem a come, but I & I a Conqueror!"Comment

I am disappointed in you. I see no fundamentalism in her position. I see genuine, non-hypocritical thoughts of a pastor. I see no attempt to force him, to discipline him, to deride him, to condemn him or to ostracize him. Total honesty and Biblical."Jah Jah see dem a come, but I & I a Conqueror!"Comment

I would have agreed with everything you said had she not chosen to deal with this in the paper. she also chose to criticize his coach in the paper. It sounds to me that aprat from her beliefs she relishes the attention.Originally posted by Westman View PostComment

You wrote a paradox that he is a leader and he might just want to fit in..not so, leaders dont fit in to what Society expects them to do they lead whether it is popular or not.
