I was flicking over at Youtube when this video got my attention. It’s about Lee Strobel‘s interview with Charles Templeton highlighting the reason why a preacher who was well on his way to becoming the best preacher of the 20th Century suddenly rejected his faith. Charles Templeton has spent years in the ministry and a close friend of Rev. Billy Graham.

In that interview, Lee came up with two rhetorical questions that describes several objections to Christianity as follows:

1. In a world of thousands of religions and gods, why is Jesus the only way to salvation? Are we actually suppose to believe that only the christians got it right?

2. How could a loving God, the God of the Bible, created a world full of evil and suffering?

What do you think dear readers? Do you have answers to this questions? Please post your answers on the comment portion below.

Lord I Offer My Life To You

“A child in a mission school offered her teacher a handful of weeds and grasses, wilted and soiled at that, which she called a bouquet. Did the teacher refuse the gift, and criticize the poor withered weeds? No, she accepted them with as sincere gratitude and as many thanks as if some wealthy friend had offered her an elegant bouquet of flowers. The child did what she could; and the teacher looking behind the gift saw the love in the little heart, and that transfigured her poor gift. So it is that Christ accepts our poorest work, or our homeliest offering, if it is our best.

But the lesson has another side. “She did what she could.” It is this, then, that pleases Christ. Are we doing what we could do? Do we always bring to Him our very best gifts? Do we never put Him off with the faded flowers, keeping the fresh and fragrant ones for ourselves? Do we do for Him our very best work? Are we faithful?

If we are only doing half what we might, we cannot take the comfort of this commendation. The widow’s mites were very acceptable coming from her, because they were all she had; but they would not have elicited any such commendation if one of the rich men had given them. A little child’s ministry is very beautiful for a child, but it would not be as fitting in the father or mother. We must really do the very best we can if we would have this commendation.” – Excerpted from Daily Devotionals with Dr. James R. Miller

Lord I Offer My Life To You, Lifting my praise to you.
Use it for Your glory. – Amen

Do Not Worry

“Do not worry! Earthly goods deceive the human heart into believing that they give it security and freedom from worry. But in truth, they are what cause anxiety. The heart which clings to goods receives with them the choking burden of worry. Worry collects treasures, and treasures produce more worries. We desire to secure our lives with earthly goods; we want our worrying to make us worry-free, but the truth is the opposite. The chains which bind us to earthly goods, the clutches which hold the goods tight, are themselves worries.- Dietrich Bonhoeffer“

“Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature?

“So why do you worry about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; 29 and yet I say to you that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. Now if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?

“Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.” – Matthew 6:25-34 New King James Version (NKJV)

Daily Devotional: Having a Servant Heart

ByThor

Having a servant heart should be one of our desires as Christians. Jesus set us the example. In Matthew 20:28, the Bible explicitly teaches us with a profound Word: “even as the Son of Man came not to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.” Our attitude should be the same as our Lord Jesus.

“For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve others and to give his life as a ransom for many.” – Matthew 20:28
Dr. James R. Miller put it this way: “He came not to be served; if this had been His aim He would never have left heaven’s glory, where He wanted nothing, where angels praised Him and ministered unto Him. He came to serve. He altogether forgot himself. He served all He met who would receive His service. At last He gave His life in serving — gave it to save others, to redeem lost souls. You say you want to be like Christ. You pray to Him to print His own image on your heart. Here, then, is the image! It is no vague dream of perfection that we are to think of when we ask to be like Christ. The old monks thought that they were in the way to become like Christ when they went into the wilderness, away from men, to live in cold cells or on tall columns. But surely that is not the that is not the thought which this picture suggests. “To minister” — that is the Christ-like thing. Instead of fleeing away from men, we are to live among men, to serve them, to live for them, to seek to bless them, to do good, to give our lives. Christ tells us that this is the stairway to the highest reaches of Christian life.”Whosoever of you will be the chiefest shall be servant of all.” To worldly men this seems indeed a strange way of rising. According to this, all men’s scrambling for place and power is really scrambling downward rather than upward. The real heights in human life are the heights of self-forgetfulness and service. We are to use all our redeemed powers in doing good to others in Christ’s name. That is what Christ did with his blessed life, and we are to follow in his steps.“
