I had a profound, deep, emotional, religious experience, fueled by a man made, false presentation of Jesus [while watching a movie]. Much like the children of Israel had a profound, deep, emotional, religious experience, fueled by a man made, false presentation of God, in the form of a golden calf. The problem with the movie isn’t, in my judgment, that it is a technical violation on the edges of a law God made, that seeing it might make Him mad because He’s so persnickety. The problem is that, for me anyway, I was lead right into the vicious heart of idolatry, which was cleverly disguised as a positive Christian experience.

6:1 Brothers, even if a man is caught in some fault, you who are spiritual must restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness; looking to yourself so that you also aren’t tempted.

6:2 Bear one another’s burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ.

6:3 For if a man thinks himself to be something when he is nothing, he deceives himself.

6:4 But let each man test his own work, and then he will take pride in himself and not in his neighbor.

6:5 For each man will bear his own burden.

6:6 But let him who is taught in the word share all good things with him who teaches.

6:7 Don’t be deceived. God is not mocked, for whatever a man sows, that will he also reap.

6:8 For he who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption. But he who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life.

6:9 Let us not be weary in doing good, for we will reap in due season, if we don’t give up.

6:10 So then, as we have opportunity, let’s do what is good toward all men, and especially toward those who are of the household of the faith.

6:11 See with what large letters I write to you with my own hand.

6:12 As many as desire to look good in the flesh, they compel you to be circumcised; only that they may not be persecuted for the cross of Christ.

6:13 For even they who receive circumcision don’t keep the law themselves, but they desire to have you circumcised, that they may boast in your flesh.

6:14 But far be it from me to boast, except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.

6:15 For in Christ Jesus neither is circumcision anything, nor uncircumcision, but a new creation.

6:16 As many as walk by this rule, peace and mercy be on them, and on God’s Israel.

6:17 From now on, let no one cause me any trouble, for I bear the marks of the Lord Jesus branded on my body.

6:18 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit, brothers. Amen.
