Tuesday, April 14, 2009 ( If Satan took over... ) I was feeling abit bored until I came across part of an article in a Christian forum: [What would things look like if Satan actually took over a city? The first frames in our imaginative slide show probably depict mayhem on a massive scale: Widespread violence, deviant sexualities, pornography in every vending machine, churches closed down and worshipers dragged off to City Hall. Over a half-century ago, Donald Grey Barnhouse, pastor of Philadelphia's Tenth Presbyterian Church, gave his CBS radio audience a different picture of what it would look like if Satan took control of a town in America. He said that all of the bars and pool halls would be closed, pornography banished, pristine streets and sidewalks would be occupied by tidy pedestrians who smiled at each other. There would be no swearing. The kids would answer "Yes, sir," "No, ma'am," and the churches would be full on Sunday ... where Christ is not preached.] I then started to wonder: would there be a day where KPC will have powerful and lively worship services packed with lots of warm-loving people. Sundays will be bustling with wholesome events and activities organised for people of all ages. Various needs of all members will be well-taken care of by the church ministries. Many mission teams will be sent out to rebuild schools and hospitals in 3rd world countries. The church leadership and members are of one voice and unity. People contribute generously to the church general and mission funds. Just one thing is lacking: Christ is not preached. When everything else seems to go smoothly, and just this one thing is missing, what will our reaction be? Will we all sit back and relax and pretend it does not matter, or we will be disturbed and alarmed? It can be quite scary sometimes to know the truth. -Andrew @ 9:47 PM by Unknown 0 comments |
