Brothers and sisters, gather ‘round the campfire of truth, for we must expose the den of wilderness iniquity known as Youth Camps! 🌲 These so-called “Christian retreats” lure our young ones with promises of fellowship and fun, but beneath the bug spray lies a cesspool of worldly compromise! Let’s shine the lantern of God’s Word on these camps and see their true colors! 🪔
After much prayer (and a few mosquito bites), we’ve uncovered these abominations:
Campfires: Portals to Paganism! 🔥
Youth camps gather around roaring campfires, singing songs and roasting marshmallows. But what is this if not a nod to ancient fire worship? Leviticus 18:21 warns against passing through the fire, yet these camps dance around flames like heathens! Are they toasting s'mores or their salvation? Repent of the campfire, ye counselors! 🚫
S’mores: A Sticky Trap of Gluttony! 🍫
S’mores—graham crackers, chocolate, and marshmallows—seem innocent, but they’re a gateway to the sin of excess! Proverbs 23:20-21 cautions against gluttony, yet campers indulge in these gooey treats without restraint. The devil whispers, “Just one more,” but the scales of justice say otherwise! Step away from the chocolate, children! 🍬
Capture the Flag: Breeding Division! 🏃♂️
This “game” pits camper against camper in a battle for a flag, sowing discord among the flock! Proverbs 6:19 despises those who sow discord, yet youth camps encourage this chaos under the guise of “teamwork.” Is this the unity Christ calls for, or a training ground for strife? Drop the flag and pick up your Bible! 📖
Nature Walks: Worshipping Creation, Not the Creator! 🌳
They claim to “admire God’s creation” on these hikes, but Romans 1:25 warns against worshipping the created over the Creator! These walks are a slippery slope to tree-hugging idolatry. Why gaze at a pinecone when you could gaze upon the Word? Stay on the narrow path—literally! 🛤️
Beloved, youth camps are not the sanctuaries they claim to be! They’re breeding grounds for marshmallow-fueled rebellion and campfire heresy. We urge you to:
Youth camps may dazzle with their starry nights and canoe trips, but we see through their mosquito-netted lies! Let us reject these campy temptations and cling to the true retreat—God’s Holy Word. As 1 John 2:15 commands, “Love not the world!” Trade your sleeping bag for a prayer mat, and let righteousness reign! 🙌
