Twelve: God > The Avengers (and proof)


This is a repost of something from six months ago. Although the Avengers hype has died down significantly, I believe a revival and reminder is always a good thing.

For my purposes, the Avengers are the ones who got movies about themselves: The Hulk, Thor, Captain America, and Iron Man.

Paul called it out before it even started. 

1 Thesselonians 4:3-6 says:

For this is the will of God, your sanctification; that is, that you abstain from sexual immorality; that each of you know how to possess his own vessel in sanctification and honor, not in lustful passion, like the Gentiles who do not know God; and that no man transgress and defraud his brother in the matter because the Lord is the avenger in all these things, just as we also told you before and solemnly warned you.

Now, let's throw some names in there.

The same verse again, with brackets added to indicate names:

For this is the will of God, your sanctification; that is, that you abstain from sexual immorality [Iron Man]; that each of you know how to possess his own vessel [Hulk] in sanctification and honor, not in lustful passion, like the Gentiles who do not know God [Captain America]; and that no man transgress and defraud his brother in the matter [Thor] because the LORD is the AVENGER in all these things, just as we also told you before and solemnly warned you.


As I said, God > Avengers.
