12/11/2022 – “Parables” by John MacArthur / Chapter 9 – “A lesson about heaven and hell” / short excerpt and testimony to a ministry that fights relentlessly against the tide.
Just a short excerpt with a testimony of a warrior brother who has the courage and love for lost souls to fight relentlessly against the herd’s stampede over the cliff:
“Of course, hell has always stirred negative passions. That was true even in Jesus’ time. But today the subject is virtually taboo — even in supposedly evangelical circles. Hell is an embarrassment to those who want Christianity to fit the modern dogmas of universal goodwill and broad-mind tolerance. It is an inconvenience to those who want the biblical message to always sound cheerful to unchurched people. It is an irritant to those who want a religion that makes people always feel good about themselves. And it is an offense to those who care little about righteousness and don’t really fear God — but want to maintain some presence of piety anyway.”
The mentor warrior?
- Brother Carl and the Bezeugen Tract Club he co-founded over 15 years ago. It is a ministry that reaches across the globe now. It takes perseverance, the rate of rejection is overwhelming. You don’t do it for good feelings, but love for lost souls. What if just one person comes up to you in heaven and proclaims, I know you, you are the one who invited me here ! One won’t last long in the trenches, if you are motivated primarily by shared high fives.
