| Michael Jackson: That's Not My King! |
| Saturday, June 27, 2009 |
 It's happened at least three times before in my lifetime-- an icon dies! A god is dead.
I was just a kid when J.F.K. died, but I still remember hearing about it. Then, in 1980, I was in my fiancee's apartment waiting for her to get home when I heard about John Lennon's death. Another "god" died in 1997. It was my wife's last day of work as a practicing nurse when news hit the world that Princess Diana had died. And now we hear that Michael Jackson is suddenly gone.
All kings and queens in their own right....but, friends, I can assure you THAT'S NOT MY KING! While the world grieves its loss of another mortal god, I still celebrate my gain of salvation through the resurrection of the King of kings.
And nobody says it better than that old Baptist preacher, S.M. Lockbridge in this clip as he exalts the Lord Jesus Christ.
Take three minutes to listen to it. You'll be glad you did, and I'm guessing you'll come away saying: NOW THAT'S MY KING!!! |
