The Chick message is pretty much that one should worship God out of fear of hell - one need not love God, only fear him enough to worship him to avoid punishment.
You're spot on. To worship anything out of fear is neither righteous nor liberating. Jack Chick uses fear to promote his message (and yes it's his message, not Gods or Jesus' or whatever he wants to dress it up as)
Uhh Dude, Chick's tracts are just illustrations of Bible passages- that is why he qoutes Bible scripture about 20 times in every tract. Chick's message is the inspired word of god- that is what the Bible is after all.
Just face it, intolerants. You take shots at Chick because he speaks the word of God and you don't like the word of God- you are ashamed of it. It is o.k. though. Only the most disciplned and enlightened are called to Christ. You undisciplined and unmotivated guys can go join some false religion like Budhism, islam, Judaism,catholicism, or become an atheist like SOS.
If you can't take the heat(Holy Bible) then get the hell out of the kitchen,please.
Anyone can spit Bible quotes taken out of context left and right.
To understand the Bible as a whole and interpret those passages in context is a totally different thing.
