re: martin lrther sharing by taupok below.

"like this cos it reminds us that in whatever evangelistic and social action God has called us to, He has called us not so much to win arguments or achieve causes, but to live in love and let His love transform the world. " taupok


thnx for sharing this particular point..wanted to share something that happened in camp..that happens quite often to me recently..wanted to point it out during pcg but din dare say it..shared with cs abt it casually but felt what taupok typed above seems to make some sense..

my office guys often point out christian behaviour that 'amuse' them.. how we praise in tongues (and they start making funny noises), how we are 'targetting' non-christians.. how our church expansion is for money reasons.. how come we use a bible that have books choosen by a roman emperor (who gave him the right to choose the books that are in and out?).. and how our christian past may not be that nice (crusades)..

i nv ever knew how to win those arguments or debates..either laugh it off or try to change topic?
but maybe it makes sense now that He has called us not so much to win arguments or achieve causes, but to live in love and let His love transform the world..

i always believed in that.. and thats why i still think lifestyle evangelism is very impt to me.. loving others unconditionally (and unpreteniously)..

what do you think?
