Not only is Joe Paterno and practically every College institution and administrator guilty of polluting God's Holy 7th Day Sabbath but this watchdog, the NCAA, the body that currently claims to have the interest of the nation, is actually aiding and abetting the cause of the most horrific punishment to ever be poured out on a nation.
The NCAA is actually encouraging Sabbath breaking which will eventually cause the citizens of this nation to be outright vaporized or left half dead by the horrific nuclear explosions to rock this entire nation in the years ahead. After you hand out all your sanctions, you need to be sanctioned yourself. The NCAA is contributing to and encouraging sins in this nation that will have a far more impact than on the victims of the people and institution they are currently condemning.
After you finish your job of condemning, NCAA, then shut your own organization down and confess and repent of your sins before God for encouraging Sabbath-breaking helping to destroy this entire nation!
I believe in the Sabbath (7th day)...but seriously?
Why is this your approach? Why not draw from the example of Jesus?
Let's see.
John the Baptist spoke out in his day. Result: got his head chopped off.
Christ spoke out in His day. Result: beaten beyond recognition, mocked, crucified, mortally stabbed in the side by a Roman soldier
The 12 apostles and Paul spoke out in their day. Result: all were believed martyred (after being tortured for some) except John and he miracously escaped a pot of boiling oil.
The beloved Saints who keep the Commandments of God and who have the Holy Spirit with the Faith of Jesus Christ, many were martyred -- "I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God."
This nation needs to be warned! And to not to do that til martyrdom comes, I feel I am not worthy to sit next to these great men who all were torn to pieces by the vicious satan inspired mobs of this present evil world. Men who fearlessly proclaimed the Truth of God no matter what the consequences. Physical death is but for a moment but eternal life is forever...That is my personal belief...
This nation is not being warned properly for all of their sins against God.
mark 2:27 Then he said to them, "The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath
Wakey, wakey...
But it is still God's Day to be sanctified and set apart from the rest of the week. A day for man to rest and worship God. Not to follow strict laws added after the days of Ezra and Nehemiah to make the Sabbath a yoke of bondage. You jump from one ditch into the other.

What was Jesus' approach when spreading the gospel?

It was a warning and witness to the world in general so they would not be converted at the time. He spoke in parables to hide the meaning but still preached it to them even though their eyes were blind and their ears were deaf to actually come into God's Church and receive God's Holy Spirit. But to the true Saints He spoke plainly the Gospel of the Kingdom of God and these were converted and repented of their sins and kept the Commandments of God did recieve the Holy Spirit at Pentecost.
But to the leaders of His day He fearlessly spoke out against their errors. He didn't spare condemnation for their evil ways. And neither do most true ministers of God! They will condemn evil!

Jesus preach in parables and gave plain message with love...and not constant condemnation. Sometimes its not what we say but how we say it.
John 3:17 - For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

You may have deduced from this that Christ spoke to everyone like a mother would speak to her children with kindness and affection.
Now, please answer my request. Give me examples where Christ did not speak timidly and really railed out on the evils He saw around Him and give example(s) where He actually got physical with the evil people of His day. Don't hold back. Scan for His most vicious remarks that He used to make His words really sting so the listeners would get the point.

No one said anything of the sort @ the bold. However, he carefully considered to whom he was speaking and not simply spewing anything at anyone. People are going to be "vaporized or left half dead?" Really?
*sigh*
