WHY CHRISTIANS ARE CONSIDERED CRAZY
Thankyou to Amrita, this is on her wonderful blog
According to this, I am crazy, and happy to be that way!!!
WHY CHRISTIANS ARE CONSIDERED CRAZY
Christians are considered by many to be crazy, and with
good reason as A.W. Tozer notes:
"A real Christian is an odd number anyway.
He feels supreme love for the One he has never seen,
talks familiarly every day to Someone he cannot see,
expects to go to heaven on the virtue of Another,
empties himself in order to be full,
admits he is wrong so that he can be declared right,
goes down in order to get up,
is strongest when he is weakest,
richest when he is poorest,
and happiest when he feels worst.
He dies so he can live,
forsakes in order to have,
gives away so he can keep,
sees the invisible,
hears the inaudible,
and knows that which passeth knowledge."
Yes,Christians are different,but its encouraging to know that we are in
good company.

Would You Stay?
There was a church full of worshippers, waiting for the pastor to start speaking, when a man dressed in black with a black hood on his head burst through the doors aiming a machine gun. "Any of you who are willing to take a bullet for Christ, stay where you are!" The choir ran in all directions. The junior pastors hid behind the pastor. The congregation almost crushed each other heading for the emergency exits. Soon only about 20 people were left. The gunman took off his hood and said "There ya go preacher, I cleared out all the hypocrites for ya, you can start now!"
Would you be one who stayed? Why or why not? Leave a comment.
