Obsessed with Blood: The Crazy Things Christians Believe - Book 1
This is the first in a series of books calledThe Crazy Things Christians Believe. In this book, we will take a look at why Christians are so obsessed with blood. They sing about it, adorn their cars with bumper stickers about it, wear t-shirts declaring they are washed in it and even partake in rituals where they figuratively drink it. To the uninitiated, these activities are very strange.The reader should bear in mind that my background is that of an Evangelical, as such I am writing primarily from this viewpoint. I am aware that other versions of Christianity have slightly differing beliefs concerning some of the things I have written.For more than 15 years, I was a successful evangelical Pastor and Preacher. During this time, there were many things I believed and taught concerning the things of God. Some of them, most of them actually, I now view as being downright crazy! Yet as I am unable to locate the delete key regarding the knowledge I have, I thought it would be fun to write about these things instead!This book is not intended to be an attack on Christianity or Christians. If you are reading this as and are offended with some of the things I write, please remember that this is only a little book compared to the magnitude of faith. If your beliefs are sound, reading this book will not undermine them. So don't worry.As always, I am writing this book anonymously to avoid facing the personal attacks from Christians and Church leaders who feel justified in doing so. I have no wish at this time to embark on pointless debates or arguments, and the endless attempts to convince me of my impending and eternal damnation. I simply do not have time for it.This book is not intended to be an exhaustive examination of scriptures. There are many aspects to the Biblical view on blood and blood covenants I have not bothered to cover. However I have tried to cover the essential bits.I trust you will enjoy book 1 - Obsessed with Blood! Ex PreacherFebruary 2013
