Contempt for the Cool

“Cool” is not part of the true Church of Jesus Christ, and it’s high time that it be driven out of the sacred halls. Hip swaggers are expected from those intimately connected to the world's system, but there is nothing more unsuited than a Christian strutting around inside the Body of Christ with an angsty smolder. Those absorbed in the realities of the risen Lamb of God hold such swaggers, angst, and smolder with contempt. Please, Church of Jesus Christ, let's relinquish our worldly cool and embrace Christ's beautiful stigma in following the example of triumphant Christianity throughout the ages.
