Tinfoil Hat Brigade – slang for aluminum or tin foil makeshift hat on one’s head; a nickname for the mentally deranged; describes people who have paranoia or belief in conspiracy theories; shorthand for saying someone is paranoid or crazy.
1 Peter 4:14 “If ye be reproached for the name of Christ, happy are ye; for the spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you: on their part he is evil spoken of, but on your part he is glorified.”
The True Bible Believers who actually walk the walk and talk the talk are often viewed as a type of “Tin Foil Hat Brigade,” especially by those who are on the outside looking in. Oftentimes, we will be labeled, accused, and dubbed by the secular world of so many things, from being self-righteous, legalistic, to unloving, paranoid, even hypocritical, prudish, and not to mention delusional for believing in the things that the Holy Bible teaches.
Mark 5:40-42 “And they laughed him to scorn. But when he had put them all out, he taketh the father and the mother of the damsel, and them that were with him, and entereth in where the damsel was lying. And he took the damsel by the hand, and said unto her, Talitha cumi; which is, being interpreted, Damsel, I say unto thee, arise. And straightway the damsel arose, and walked; for she was of the age of twelve years. And they were astonished with a great astonishment.”
Some of these accusations could be true when it comes to certain attitudes or behaviors that we may have, but the main question is, “Are we truly ‘delusional or crazy’ for believing in what the Bible teaches?” To those who are on the outside of Faith in Christ, to believe in a virgin birth, a man walking on water, people rising from the dead, the sea parting, and the sun standing still for a whole day, among many other beyond fascinating biblical reports would seem ludicrous, especially to those who do not have eyes to see or ears to hear.
Once again, my honest inquiry would be, “Is it irrational for us to believe in these things specifically when it pertains to God and the spiritual realm?” Speaking of the supernatural, I and countless others, especially the eyewitnesses to the accounts recorded in the Bible, don’t or would not think it is in any way, shape, or form delusional and/or irrational for us to believe in such at all! In fact, the unseen realm is more real than what we can see right in front of us in the here and now, if you really want to boil it all down. “Believest thou this?”
