Is it irreverent to the Word or is it irreverent to the human condition that is so pervasive that not only does the general (ish) template hold true in the 1st Century but every single year of our Lord since then? Which makes it funny because it is true, yes?
Irreverent to the word of God. Even Muslims know better than making jokes about their idols, and yet here we worship the living and true God who is so holy that the godly prophet Isaiah was undone in His presence but men will make jokes at God's expense for a like on the internet.
"It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God." Hebrews 10:31
I'm convinced that joking about the things of God is unwise at best, and works against cultivating a godly fear among believers.
To be explicit I myself take issue especially with posts #4 and #8, with several others being more borderline irreverence. The primary reason I take issue with these is because they are joking about God's word concerning solemn and weighty matters - hell, judgment and the atonement of Christ.the lack of specific references as to where there are jokes about God himself or about the things of God being the object of a joke themselves makes these posts less than useful.
But again, the lack of specific references as to where there are jokes about God himself or about the things of God being the object of a joke themselves makes these posts less than useful.
