Is it time for another 95 Theses?
On October 31, 499 years ago, something amazing happened. A monk nailed a list of 95 questions and propositions that presented alternatives to the traditional church to the door of Wittenberg Castle Church. People began to like, copy, and share that list everywhere and those ideas caught on like wildfire and brought church out of the Dark Ages!
–I began to think that perhaps religion needs a new 95 Theses so I wrote 95 and posted them in a blog. Will you like, copy, and share it?

Joseph D. Absher
1. I denounce the spirit of harlotry, the cold calculating prayers of the clergy, and the onlookers at ease in Zion!!!
Joseph D. Absher
2. I reject the behavior modification, preaching of church conformity and traditions of men and not soul searching, heart breaking repentance that only a touch from Christ can relieve.
Joseph D. Absher
3. Where are the Father’s? Not the Bible thumpers and shouters, but the love and tenderness and care of a father nurturing their sons. Protecting the weak and and challenging the strong???
Joseph D. Absher
4. There was a generation that knew not God. And whose fault was it. Not the children. Definitions of justification by faith, the prayer of faith, and preaching of faith in God must be declared with boldness and clarity!!!
