....but folks...this is some serious stuff. This is cosmic, earth-shattering, soul destroying stuff. And there is no way to run from it.
I love Christians who take a back seat approach to religion. They think that a nice cozy place in heaven is waiting for them, and to get there all that is required is the scheduled prayer and service. Guys...this is not that kind of place. If that has been what you’ve believed for awhile...it is time to flip the switch!
This is warfare! It is not knitting. This is a place where everything under the sky comes to bash into each other. This is a place where demons run around like they own it and guys like me are sent in to clean up the mess. This is no kind of joke, this is real life stuff. Maybe you think your ministers are just there to hold hands. I guarantee you that is not all they do.
All of us....all of us who take Jesus very seriously, are called into this battle. Yes, we’re like America, and we are only on the offense in a defensive way, but that is still a HUGE responsibility. I can only bag them and tag them so fast. I need help for this kind of thing. You could look at it as war, but it is actually far worse than that.
This place is just a little stopover in a much bigger game. If you think the end of this planet matters...well...it kinda does I guess...but it is just an island. The whole game is much bigger. I don’t want to simplify stuff too much for you, but the movie What Dreams May Come is a pretty good representation. This kind of thing goes on and on and on.
Folks, I am not here to ask you to do something. I am here to tell you that if you DON’T do something...then you are making a grave mistake. You have POWER!!! You have INTERNET ACCESS!!! There are tools everywhere that can help you make a point on behalf of our Lord and Savior. There are forums, and blogs, and directory, and websites, and online advertising. I tell you all the time about the ads I run in heavily Muslim countries. And my latest idea, clipping one dollar bills to ministry business cards...that’s a good one! www.VistaPrint.com can send you 250 cards for $5.
Guys....I’m just trying to tell you what is really going on. I’m sure lots of you know, but for those that don’t, be grateful that you are learning. This kind of thing never stops, it never ends, and the only thing you can do is make sure you are playing for the right team.
