What really gets me in this drama how patience and pusuit are intermingled. Jesus saved us knowing we would run from Him, knowing we would at times go back to our old ways, knowing the trickery of the enemy and how often we may be seduced by him. He saved us and pursues us because He knows we need Him. Jesus does not passively wait for us in His patience but He violently pursues us. Jesus sacrificed His life 2000 years ago for us and He continues to lay it down when necessary...
Thanks you Jesus for your love and patience.
A LETTER FROM AN ATHEIST
"You are really convinced that you've got all the answers. You've really got yourself tricked into believing that you're 100% right. Well, let me tell you just one thing. Do you consider yourself to be compassionate of other humans? If you're right, as you say you are, and you believe that, then how can you sleep at night? When you speak with me, you are speaking with someone who you believe is walking directly into eternal damnation, into an endless onslaught of horrendous pain which your 'loving' god created, yet you stand by and do nothing. If you believed one bit that thousands every day were falling into an eternal and unchangeable fate, you should be running the streets mad with rage at their blindness. That's equivalent to standing on a street corner and watching every person that passes you walk blindly directly into the path of a bus and die, yet you stand idly by and do nothing. You're just twiddling your thumbs, happy in the knowledge that one day that 'walk' signal will shine your way across the road. Think about it. Imagine the horrors Hell must have in store if the Bible is true. You're just going to allow that to happen and not care about saving anyone but yourself? If you're right then you're an uncaring, unemotional and purely selfish (expletive) that has no right to talk about subjects such as love and caring."
