I was raised Protestant and never heard of this.

The Tea
  1. Carefully open the tea bag without tearing it. Display the bag of tea leaves to the children.
  2. Then explain: Tea looks like dirt. If you put it in water, it will change the water to the color of the tea. It will no longer be clear and pure.
  3. Demonstrate by dropping a bit of tea into the glass of hot water and stirring it around.
  4. Explain: Like this tea bag, we all have dirt in our lives. We are not pure. The Bible calls this dirt, this impurity, sin. We need help from God to remove the sin from our lives. That’s exactly why Jesus came – to help us remove the sin from our lives. We must trust Jesus to remove the sin from our lives. When we ask him for forgiveness, he will make us clean and pure again.

I didn´t knew that. But I never liked any kind of tea. Now the less so.

A safe way to get the sin out of them :)

See now Jesus Christ gave of his energy and love so that others might have more energy and love in their lives and so many in his church teach us, so others might also have that in their afterlives too. A tea bag gives up its energy and wholesomeness so that others (in this case the drinkers) might have more energy for love in their lives and if as in Wragg's poem their love is crucifixion that message is still more Christian than at least three of the ideas at creativeyouthideas.

Also, stop wasting our tea bags they are a precious resource!

That is just weird, the symbolism doesn't work at all! Not at all!!!! The "impure" water now has a flavour and a positive effect on those who drink it FFS! It is enhanced by the tea bag, not tainted by it. How the hell does this teach the Gospel??

Tea is sin? I am flabbergasted. wtf! I despair of these people.

Sorry Wragg for derailing your thread. It was a wonderful poem, on message, humorous, just right. Unlike this ridiculous tea bag "parable".

The way I see it, the pure water of Christ is boiled, and then tainted by sin (tea), making him much more interesting. You're right. It's totally rubbish theology, and a complete waste of tea.

Anything which livens up afternoon tea for one has to be welcome, old chap!

(See verse 2 - there you are, you were on topic!) ;)

Proper tea is theft. :bash:

Actually, it's obvious to one familiar with Scots Presbyterians -
you hang up your teabags to dry, like Jesus was hung out to dry,
then you can resurrect them after a day or two! :devil:

Giggle snort. Leave it to those Scots Presbyterians. One wonders if they ever have any fun?
