Yancey’s Three Questions

Yet behind the three questions stands a person who claims to have the explanation and the answer to these questions.

Heavenly minded or no good at all

I have heard it said that a person could be so Heavenly minded that he is of no Earthly good. Perhaps it is only me, but I find that I am in greater danger of becoming so Earthly minded that I am no good at all.

Love – not busyness or programs

Paul prayed that the Philippians’ love might abound. He did not pray for busyness or programs to abound. Maybe we need to re-think our church life.

Ungodly means to a godly end?

If one or more of the leaders is using ungodly means to implement his vision, I struggle to see how the church could be healthy.

New news, old news

Malcolm Muggeridge is attributed as saying, “new news is old news happening to new people.” Jeremiah warns us of repeating the errors of ancient Israel.

Willing to get a little messy

Jesus was not afraid to be seen with people of bad reputation. He was not afraid to get a little messy to bring home those he came to save. The only person that Jesus sought to please was his Heavenly Father.
