Wacky Wednesday Baby Preacher. You gotta see this.



Even though this is hilariously funny, I feel a little sad that this is what a little baby is seeing in our cultural churches today. Is this really revival? Still you gotta laugh out loud. I just had to show you.

Hm, I didn't think it was funny. I was distressed by it. It makes a mockery of preaching. Three questions from the Shorter Catechism of the Westminster Assembly: A Baptist Version immediately come to mind.
Q 32. What is effectual calling?
Effectual calling is the work of God the Father's power and grace, whereby He, by His Word and Spirit, invites and draws His elect unto Jesus Christ, convincing them of their sin and misery, enlightening their minds in the knowledge of Christ, and renewing their wills, thereby persuading and enabling them to embrace Jesus Christ, freely offered to all in the gospel.
Q 58. What is forbidden in the third commandment?
The third commandment forbids all profaning or abusing of any thing whereby God makes himself know.
Q 95. How is the Word made effectual to salvation?
The spirit of God makes the reading, but especially the preaching of the Word, an effectual means of convincing and converting sinners and of building up believers in holiness and comfort through faith unto salvation.

There is just so much irreverence today towards the things of God, even in the church. The audience response encouraged that small child to continue to engage in the 'scream preaching' and mocking of preaching. Shame on them!

See what happens when I require my child to memorize the Westminster Catechism?? "I" then know them too!!
