Sadly, I think it's that people...Amen to that. Sadly, I think it's that people don't see the gospel as "an incredible, powerful gospel, that contains the means to bring healing and salvation to the suffering." So keep preaching it brother! And writing it!Philiphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02350598700830636417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3460231368220088583.post-62873390409362890572012-01-03T22:14:24.602-05:002012-01-03T22:14:24.602-05:00My apologies if there was any sense of frustration...My apologies if there was any sense of frustration in this. I must double check my wording. There was no frustration intended as I am not at a point of frustration. No, I realize that people either get it or they don't, however the message must still be conveyed. I believe the reason we harp on it is because the Church is drowning in it. It's hard to see such an incredible, powerful gospel, that contains the means to bring healing and salvation to the suffering, being treated with such apathy by those who claim to administer their lives by it.Michael Paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09493809865215323875noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3460231368220088583.post-54723630461397041142012-01-03T16:53:03.016-05:002012-01-03T16:53:03.016-05:00Hey Paul, This is a great and helpful admonition. ...Hey Paul, This is a great and helpful admonition. Thank you for the reminder to keep my eyes on Jesus. It's the only way not to get choked out like you said. <br /><br />But I do think we harp on mediocrity and luke-warmness a lot, and people don't change until they begin to realize the sort of grace and love that's been lavished on them. I picked up a hint of frustrated boot-strap pulling in this post. Sinners don't turn around on their own, me included.Philiphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02350598700830636417noreply@blogger.com
