Luke 18:10-14

[Psalm 51:17]

Luke 18:10  Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican.
Luk 18:11  The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, God, I thank thee, that I am not as other men are, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican.
Luk 18:12  I fast twice in the week, I give tithes of all that I possess.
Luk 18:13  And the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, God be merciful to me a sinner.
Luk 18:14  I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other: for every one that exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.

Ohio fast-food joint disses Browns
9/13/13

In observance with the Christian day of rest, Chick-fil-A is not open on Sundays.

Typically, that reality is not used as premise for a punchline, but these are the Cleveland Browns we're talking about.



"Like the Browns, we take Sundays off," the sign reads. Cold, Chick-fil-A. Cold.

As sleuthed out by Holdoutsports.com, that appears to be the fast food chain's location in North Canton, Ohio. If that rings a bell, yes — Canton is also the home of the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

Apparently it's also a location with a sense of humor about the regional sports franchises.

[Psalm 51:17]

For the most part, what drove me crazy through many years of going to these church buildings is that the pastors, deacons, etc would talk about how we needed to be in church all day on Sundays. Otherwise if we watch football that day, we're committing idolatry. If those church buildings they have while preaching from non-KJVs aren't idolatrous enough to begin with.

And another thing that drove me crazy is this whole mandantory Sunday worship nonsense, which Chick-fil-A seems to promote too. Scripture says otherwise...

Romans 14:5  One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day alike. Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind.

Col 2:16  Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days:
Col 2:17  Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ.
