Once upon a time, in the land of St. Louis Missouri, there were places known as Tiki Bars and Restaurants with names like Trader Vics and The Polynesian Village. These were magical places where people in middle America could be instantly transported to Polynesia – from Hawaii to the Marianas to New Zealand to Easter Island.
The music was exotic, the drinks were infused with rum, tropical juices, spices and flavors. To walk into one of these establishments was to walk into a magical land of wonder and enchantment complete with beautiful hula dancers and carved statues.
Sometime in the early 1970s, when polyester ruled the world, this kinder and gentler world was lost. Disco was born and the world became a darker place.
But now it is time for rebirth. Like so many other places in the United States and around the world, TIki Culture is making a comeback. The old things are new again and we can once again be transported to those exotic lands of enchantment and wonder.
We invite you to join in on the fun!
WE BELIEVE PARTS OF THE BIBLE BY STEVE FINNELL
ReplyDeleteSome believers in Christ believe the entire Bible is the accurate translation of the word of God, other do not.
Most denominations believe either by declaration or practice the Mormon position of the Bible. Mormon quote: "We believe the Bible to be the word of God as far as it is translated correctly....."
Mormons, Catholics, and Pentecostals believe that God is sill giving new revelation to men today. Other denominations believe the Bible is God's completed revelation, except where it has been mistranslated or is in contrast with their creed books, Bible commentaries or statements of faith.
If what your denomination teaches is contrary to Scripture, do you think it might be wise to side with God's view?
