Contributed by Sermon Central on Jun 18, 2007 (message contributor)
Two millennia on it is very much a similar setting in our world we havent advanced at all, we still find ourselves with a diversity of religions,cults,pagan practices and personal philosophies.Just go down into our major city centres you will find a host of books on alternative spirituality, spiritual experiences on offer. Just listen to a few celebrity quotes on religious spirituality:
D. Becham said “I want to baptize my son Brooklyn but I don’t know which religion as yet”
Kylie Minogue said ‘The soul is the endlessness of our beings. The soul is infinite and were just passing through . I have lived before but I’m not very advanced in my series of lives. I’m not even in double figures.’
Drew Barrymore said ‘Either I am the reincarnation of my grandfather or he is in spiritual limbo and won’t pass on till he knows I’m okay.’
Angelina Jolie, said “There doesn’t need to be a God for me. There’s something in people that’s spiritual, that’s god like. I don’t feel like doing things just because people say things, but I also don’t really know if it’s better to just not believe in anything, either."
Madonna “The thought of eternal life appeals to me." “I hope by the time it’s my moment to leave this world physically, I’ll have gotten my head around the idea that life is an endless cycle.”
Britney Spears who grew up a Baptist said, "I read the Kabbalah books and I meditate on them ... They are all in Hebrew. I don’t understand everything. But it’s kind of OK that you don’t. ... Kevin isn’t into it as intensely as I am. For some reason I’m thirsting for it."
William Hague wrote about the Prime minister. “ Here is a professing Anglican who attends Roman Catholic services, but carries a copy of the Koran. The Prime Minister may be clear about himself, but he has managed to confuse the rest of us about the countries Identity. Daily Telegraph Article p 22 May 8th.
