Drunken Glory Tour

I received an E-Mail solicitation today inviting me to a "drunken glory tour." No, this was not sent by a group of alcoholics; instead, it came from a group of "believers." Read the ad and compare it to the Bible:
"John Crowder and Benjamin Dunn travel the world on a continual Love Feast known as the Drunken Glory Tour. They boast in nothing but the finished works of Jesus Christ, and they bring an intoxicating message of glad tidings! Their ministry is marked by extreme supernatural manifestations, ecstatic celebration, miracles, signs and wonders. Join them at a venue near you to experience joy unspeakable and full of Glory!"

How does this compare to the Bible? Did Paul boast of "intoxicating messages?" Did Peter or Paul invite people to come to a party to get drunk? No; their message was repentance, turning from sin and following Jesus Christ. This ad is another example of the apostate American church. God have mercy; God send true revival.
