While preparing to write this sequel to the question “ s this Christianity? Is this not foolishness or plain purposelessness?”, I watched CNN Soledad O’Brien special feature on Jim Jones and the mass murder he carried out in Jonestown, Guyana. He did it in the name of religion and it increased my sense of urgency. I believe there are red flags that can be spotted to know if one or a loved one is gradually getting into any strange and concocted version of Christianity. I believe there are symptoms that are indicative of underlying tendencies that we need to be sensitive to.They are sometimes subtle but there are clues that are visible and should be respected. If these red flags are observed and the hints they proffer are respected, these strange versions of Christianity will not be able to thrive! More lives will be saved from the kind of pain the 27 year old I mentioned it the first part of this write up went through. You can get the first part at http://www.evangelistbee.com/2010/11/what-is-this-is-this-christianity-is.html
Will knowing these red flags eliminate the trend completely? No. It will save you at least. You cannot prevent a bird from flying over your head but you can prevent it from building a nest on your head. I will be using recorded facts from the Jim Jones story and the young woman's story mentioned in the previous write up once in a while as a reference point to show what these red flags are.
