Hello all,
First off my name is Jason. I am known mostly as the paranormal preacher due to my biblical paranormal research and investigations.
This is my first post here and I hope to get to know you all.
As I was reading 2 Corinthians 2:14-17, Some of the terminology rang out to me as to why we, as open air preachers, are rejected so often. Yes, we are confrontational bringing a sinners sins to light in a world of darkness but why is it confrontational?
Well, 2 Corinthians 2:14-17 says this;
14 But thank God! He has made us his captives and continues to lead us along in Christ’s triumphal procession. Now he uses us to spread the knowledge of Christ everywhere, like a sweet perfume. 15 Our lives are a Christ-like fragrance rising up to God. But this fragrance is perceived differently by those who are being saved and by those who are perishing. 16 To those who are perishing, we are a dreadful smell of death and doom. But to those who are being saved, we are a life-giving perfume. And who is adequate for such a task as this?
17 You see, we are not like the many hucksters who preach for personal profit. We preach the word of God with sincerity and with Christ’s authority, knowing that God is watching us.
(All scripture is NLT)
A sinner hears us, and even at times sees us and notices that they can smell the aroma of death. We make them recognize they dreadful state of living by causing them to smell death. WE ARE THE AROMA OF DEATH!
The same is true as for why we are fellow brethren can have fellowship. We are WASHED clean in the Blood, and carry the spiritual B.O. of Life!
If you would like to read this more in depth I have posted a more elaborate sermon on my blog paranormalpreacher.blogspot.com
Junk punching the devil all up in his man business,
