"As I see it, much of the clergy, the church, Christian music
and Christian literature have become pathetically soft and have
lost their holy punch. If you don't believe me, then take this
Nestea challenge: From now on when you read the scripture, pay
close attention when you land on a chunk of text in which Moses,
Joshua, David, Elijah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, John the Baptist,
Paul or Jesus is engaged in dialogue with an idiotic idolater,
a pompous Pharisee or a vacillating vixen. Know what? You won't
see these searing saints doling out nicely-nicely stuff...[T]hey'll
be challenging -- oft times ridiculing -- the very ground the
impenitent unbeliever or the feigned professor stands on....You
will rarely see God's holy ones repenting of the verbal invectives
they have aimed at their audience's willful blindness. Concerning
these greatest of biblical characters, we not only see great acts
of compassion toward the repentant; we also see an unapologetic
verbal 'gloves-off' approach with someone God wants and needs His
spokesman to offend. Hey, PC police! These Holy Spirit inspired
men of the Bible were godly figures of great antagonism who
insisted on battling bogus belief systems and telling the truth,
frequently at the expense of a person's person." --Doug Giles
