Aiming,though often failing 'to become all things to all men so that by all possible means I might save some'. Join with me in these reflections,discussions, videos and even humour about how we might become truly authentic in mission:Contextual yet Biblical:Passionate, but also Compassionate:In Word, as well as in Deed.The Spirit of Jesus within is calling each of his followers to reach out and fulfil the Missio Dei in a world of pain and need.
Very excellent testimony! He is absolutely right! That is why I never argue anyone into the Kingdom, I just proclaim the Word, and those who are willing to acknowledge that it is not the work of men but of God, come to Him. God can never be the end result of our thinking about Him. That's why I always say, "You can't think your way to God. In fact you can't get anywhere near Him, until you know for sure that He has called you to Him, that all the initiative is really on His side."
God can never be held as the object of our thought, but we are held as the apple of His eye.
For God so loved the world, that He gave His only-begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have everlasting life.
