...they want you to be Jesus...
Okay, I don't want Bono to be Jesus, because, well, it's rather a moot point, innit?
I visited a different church tonight specifically to hear the pastor of my former church in Wisconsin. He gave *quite* a sermon on the Body of Christ--the body of believers--and how the BOC is continuing the work of Christ through the Holy Spirit.
But there was one particular point in his talk about how the BOC, because we basically are "Christ on earth", that our actions and how we live our lives, should reflect this.
So of course, this made me think of U2.
I am the first to admit that my spiritual walk has gone so far off the narrow path at times, that it was a wonder I found my way back at all. But like "iron sharpening iron" (believers keeping each other accountable), I really do wish at times I could talk to Bono and the boys about some of their behaviors. Although they are wonderful people, and as believers, have done a lot in bringing God to the world of rock-n-roll, it still bothers me when I see Bono rolling around with women on stage, the guys drinking a lot, their language and Larry and Edge STILL not married. It shouldn't but it does, because they ARE public people, part of me wishes they weren't quite so...well, sinful?? I know that sounds petty and prudish, but I can't help it. I guess I'm really just an old-fashioned gal.
Does anyone else feel this way about the guys? Loving them to tears one moment, then rolling your eyes and groaning the next??
