Winter Park, FL 2008: The ceiling on the floor. Water everywhere but in the sink. Plaster falling off the walls. “Niagara Falls” in the hallway. Sound like your life? Check out this message to make sure you haven’t become “The Dumbest Person on Earth.” The list of nominees is growing by the hour. Remove yourself.

From Trent Ling:

This title label has hounded me on and off throughout my entire life.  Truly, God has a great sense of humor in His sternness.  Of course, it’s not always funny to us.  Often in retrospect, and sometimes in real time, vision restores long enough to see that God has intervened in our lives to tell us something very important and necessary in our quest to follow Christ.  Sometimes, armed with the Truth and the Holy Spirit, we still plunge to the spiritual and earthly depths necessary to be rudely but finally awakened from our blase life.

In all of that, perhaps God has made you the “Dumbest Person on Earth.”  Embrace the truth and the understanding today and shed that dubious title as soon as possible!

This message features the reading and preaching of the following Scriptures:

2 Peter 2:21-22
