You can't make this stuff up.

For we are the real circumcision, who worship by the Spirit of God and glory in Christ Jesus and put no confidence in the flesh-
Philippians 3:3
Peter Lin thinks this is hilarious. It is the obvious proof that Christianity is true. Would you voluntarily run around with your hands in the air describing your religion with the following: "I'M THE CIRCUMCISION!"

The man has a point. You just can't make this stuff up.

Unfortunately, as I was contemplating which passage to speak on at Youth Group, I focused entirely on the gold that is verses 7-11 of chapter 3.

But whatever gain I had, I counted as loss for the sake of Christ. Indeed, I count everything as loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord.
etc.

It has only now dawned on me that I will have to deal with verses 1-6 and may have to explain circumcision to a Youth Group that comprises mainly males from the ages of 12-14. Gah.
