K. P. Yohannan on willingness to suffer

Posted on July 3, 2012 Written by Mark McIntyre 1 Comment


KP willing to sufferThis quotation is from Against the Wind, by K. P. Yohannan.

” . . . if you humble yourself and repent, saying, ‘Lord, my heart is cold. I am going after the things of the world. I am more concerned with my health and my comfort and my wife and kids than Your kingdom and Your people. Lord, I am more concerned about my comfort and future than the lost in the villages going to hell. Please forgive me, Lord. Would you change my heart?’ – I tell you, something amazing will happen inside of you. His anointing, grace and peace will enter your life, drawing you closer and closer to His side and changing your heart to be one that is willing to give whatever He asks because of your love for Him.

Follow in the footsteps of Christ. Be one who is willing to suffer.”

We should not all look the same inside the church because the people in the culture around us are not all the same. Within the bounds of correct belief and practice is the opportunity for diversity.

No Politics

McDonnell OKs abortion regulations – Comment on a Washington Times Article

More proof that opponents to Virginia legislation regarding abortion clinics care more about population control than women’s health.

One Another

One Another

If we did a better job of “one anothering” those outside the church, perhaps those on the outside would see less of our failures and more of Jesus.

He sat down to teach – Sermon on the Mount Series #2

The beginning of the Sermon on the Mount:  1 When Jesus saw the crowds, He went up on the mountain; and after He sat down, His disciples came to Him. 2 He opened His mouth and began to teach them . . .” (Matthew 5:1-2 NASB) At the end of chapter 4, Matthew informs us […]

Graveyard

Confessions of a functional atheist

One of the accusations against Christians is that we have a psychological need to believe a fantasy. In other words we make up a belief in God to provide comfort against the unknown. Our belief in God is like whistling as we pass through the graveyard. It doesn’t provide any real benefit but it makes us feel better. Is this true? How should we respond?
