“Oh man, look at her, she's an emo!”
“Those emo kids give me the creeps.”
“I hope they don't have guns today.”
“Don't let them sit near you or you'll get cooties.”
“I hear they pick bugs off of each other and eat them like baboons.”
“My cousin says they dance naked under the full moon and have carnal knowledge of animals!”
'EW, yuck, that's so gross!"
Yes, we've all heard this at school about emos and goths. While goths are possible demons, emos just need understanding and they are really just crying out for love. Emo is for emotional. The most powerful emotion is love. And we all know the most powerful love is God's love.
When you see an emo, you really see a cry for help. And can we call ourselves True Christians(TM) if we don't answer that cry? Every emo you see is a soul on the path to Hell, yet some part of it manages to show that it is ailing and in need of Jesus. We must intervene with Satan and fight that battle to save a soul. You might say to yourself, "Gosh, I'm too young to fight with Satan!" Just remember, it's not you that's fighting Satan, it's every Christian, and Jesus Christ himself fighting Satan. Satan has chosen young people as his target and so young people have to fight him.
You need to understand something. This is the story of a young lady named, let's say Kelly. That's not her real name. Kelly was always a True Christian(TM). It may be difficult for you youngsters to believe, but it wasn't always "cool" to be a Christian! No, not long ago, before Ronald Reagan and the Moral Majority, it was very uncool. The liberals and hippies, and the "social" scientists were running the country and God was kicked out of the schools and all public life. Christians were mocked openly in the streets and vegetables were even thrown at them.
But Kelly Maywright never faltered. She was firm in her faith and nothing phased her. The boys and the girls used to laugh at her and call her a weirdo. They would chant, "Carrie," at her. But she held her head up high and she fought the devil. She would organize album burnings and burn that hard rock heavy metal rock and roll. Groups like REO Speedwagon, Foreigner, Steve Miller, Boston and Chicago and even Fleetwood Mac went up in flames. She always told us that Jesus would help us and she would pray for us all. Those were foul times indeed but we didn't know better. The left controlled media had us under control.
Now things have changed. You're the cool kids at school. There was only one Kelly, but there are many of you at school. That's why you should form a God Squad at your school now. An ideal God Squad should have 5 members. Two teams of two and one squad leader. This way you can maximize coverage on an emo. One group of two should be near the emo at all times.
The first step is identification. After Identification comes isolation. Cut the emo off from his pack. When you see him heading toward his group, just walk over and start talking to him or her. Ask them "What's up?" and get comfortable being around him and allowing them to see that you are a normal person and they can trust you. Then they'll realize that they can be popular and "cool" too. Soon you should start to become more friendly. It will take time and it won't be easy. The emo will perhaps resent your presence at first, but never give up! Did Moses quit? Did Job start whining at the first boil? Do you think Jesus was a whimpering coward on the cross? Of course not! Christians aren't losers and losers never win! You have to stand up and fight the Devil and save souls!
The next step is invitation. Invite the emo to a party. Set it up in someone's basement or game room. Have snacks and soft drinks and maybe some pizza. After everyone gets relaxed and full and settled down, it's time for:
Intervention. Now is the time to fight. You have to take charge. You have just been tagged in the battle royal for a soul. The entire squad should be present for this. You should have your Pastors number on speed dial too. Start off friendly and talk about eternal life and Paradise. Talk about how great it will be in Heaven. When the Emo starts to agree with you it's time for some Bible verses. You didn't learn them in Sunday School for a ribbon only. Now is the time to use them. Show them what the Bible says and how they can avoid Hell and live forever in Paradise!
(HEY Kids, time for another contest! Which 5 Bible verses would you use to testify to an emo? Send me a P.M. with your choices and I'll post the top three in a special thread and you'll also win a gift certificate from one of Landover's fine merchants!)
When the emo starts to break down a bit, use that speed dial and get a Pastor there as fast as you can. Then it's time to step back and let the pastor do what he's trained to do. You should go to the ice cream parlor and get a treat because you've earned it. Make us proud and get out there and save some emos!!
Feel free to post your stories here. Maybe the good folks can get together and make a grand prize for the God Squad that gets the most emos to join Jesus. (I suppose we could include goths, animae, and others too.)
