"Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them.) Psalm 139:16
I'm not buying that the kid would go to hell for missing Sunday school.
That is not what the cartoon says. You have a problem representing things honestly. That is one of the reasons you are ignored when you make the ridiculous claim that Obama and Romney are the same.
You missed the point. The message was rejected, not Sunday school.
"Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them.) Psalm 139:16
Halloween or Samhain had its beginnings in an ancient, pre-Christian Celtic festival of the dead. The Celtic peoples, who were once found all over Europe, divided the year by four major holidays. According to their calendar, the year began on a day corresponding to November 1st on our present calendar. The date marked the beginning of winter. Since they were pastoral people, it was a time when cattle and sheep had to be moved to closer pastures and all livestock had to be secured for the winter months. Crops were harvested and stored. The date marked both an ending and a beginning in an eternal cycle.
Samhain The festival observed at this time was called Samhain (pronounced Sah-ween). It was the biggest and most significant holiday of the Celtic year. The Celts believed that at the time of Samhain, more so than any other time of the year, the ghosts of the dead were able to mingle with the living, because at Samhain the souls of those who had died during the year traveled into the otherworld. People gathered to sacrifice animals, fruits, and vegetables. They also lit bonfires in honor of the dead, to aid them on their journey, and to keep them away from the living. On that day all manner of beings were abroad: ghosts, fairies, and demons--all part of the dark and dread.
How Samhain Became Halloween Samhain became the Halloween we are familiar with when Christian missionaries attempted to change the religious practices of the Celtic people. In the early centuries of the first millennium A.D., before missionaries such as St. Patrick and St. Columcille converted them to Christianity, the Celts practiced an elaborate religion through their priestly caste, the Druids, who were priests, poets, scientists and scholars all at once. As religious leaders, ritual specialists, and bearers of learning, the Druids were not unlike the very missionaries and monks who were to Christianize their people and brand them evil devil worshippers.
Samhain is a great holiday my religion has celebrated a long time. You may not like it, but those of us in faiths such as Wicca are not going away, and in fact are flourishing. When my group in the Wicca faith was started in Eugene in the early 1980s to help educate and focus my faith's power and vibrancy the early meeting had roughly thirty to fifty involved.
As a lay leader I can tell you we have thousands of subscribers and active members in the Willamette valley, and this is a very good thing; let the blessings be.
6 And the soul that turneth after such as have familiar spirits, and after wizards, to go a whoring after them, I will even set my face against that soul, and will cut him off from among his people.

Good Bible quote, but the poor kid wasn't a wiccan with gold teef, so he's not going to hell. He didn't turn away from God, he just wasn't all that interested at his young age.
Anyway God gets to judge, not some guy named chick, who thinks that kids should be tortured with his cartoons in Sunday School.
Yeah, you're going to hell if you don't buy his cartoons! /s

Obama's watch stopped on 24 May 2008, but he's been too busy smoking crack to notice.
Be VERY CAREFUL of Jack Chick. This man teaches the Rapture and here is what the KING JAMES BIBLE has to say about such teaching.
Ezekiel 13:17 Likewise thou son of man, set thy face against tyhe daughters of thy people, which prophesy out of their own heart; and prophesy thou against them.
Ezekiel 13:18 And say, Thus sayeth the Lord God; Woe unto the women that sew pillows to all armholes and make kerchiefs upon the head of every stature to hunt souls! Will ye hunt the souls of my people, and will ye save the souls alive that come unto you?
Ezekiel 13:19 And will ye pollute me among my people for handfulls of barley and for pieces of bread, to slay the souls that should not die, and to save the souls alive that should not live, by your lying to my people that hear your lies.
(This is the spacific anti rapture verse) Ezekiel 13:20 Wherefore thus sayeth the Lord God; Behold, Behold, I am against your pillows wherewith ye there hunt the souls to make them fly, (the rapture) and I will tear them from your arms, and will let the souls go, even the souls that ye hunt to make them fly.
Ezekiel 13:21 Your kerchiefs also will I tear and deliver my people out of your hand, and they shall be no more in your hand to be hunted; and ye shall know that I am the Lord.
Whatever the rapture has to do with your quoted verses, I have no idea.
"Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them.) Psalm 139:16

Speaking of going to Hell,.....look what I just did : )

Of course it will be, and the WSJ is oiling the slide. At least WSJ is finally coming out of the closet and exposing themselves for the liberal shills they are.
I thought this website [LP]...was for Public debate and Freedom of Speech/Freedom of Thought.
LP should really have a Big Banner with the Star of David and then a pic of Cheney and Jesus Christ both holding guns pointed at a globe of the Planet.

You have to look certain key words in the verses in the Hebrew dictionary of the Strong's Concordance to find how the verses relate to the rapture and that God is AGINST teaching it.
The word trnsllated "armholes" in Ezekiel 13:18 refers to hands in the original Hebrew, not the sleeve openings of a garment as is usually taught.
The verse about pillows and kercheifs is refering to restraining God's truth about salvation, his outreached saving hands with "soft landing" and easy out doctrines like the rapture.
The parts about souls flying spacifically refers to the Rapture doctrine which teaches that Christians will suddenly "fly away" and have a "soft landing" or "easy out" (the "pillows") before the Tribulation starts. This is NOT the truth. Yahaveh God has WORK for his true elect Christians to do during the Tribulation, not an "easy out" of "flying away".
