Hi again to any who are interested.... I have had to do a lot of thinking about this issue we are writing about in here lately. You know, regardless of what NAMBLA has done, not done, failed to do. Regardless of anything their members have done, with or without thier knowledge or approval, in the public eye, their reputation is terrible. Can anyone dissagree with that? I doubt it. But the question that keeps bothering me is...What would Jesus do? My conclusion is that He would probably NOT do what I have done in here. He would not point His finger at them (even though, of anyone who has ever lived, He would be the most qualified to do so.). He would not condemn them...because He did not come to us to condemn, but instead to bring the Gospel...the good news of salvation for ALL who would come to Him. "But to all who believed in Him and accepted Him, He gave the right to be children of God." John 1:12 So.....I am climbing down off my soapbox. I am going to take off my fake wire halo, paper mache' wings, and borrowed white robe. These things are up for sale if anyone is interested, but I don't recomend them. They haven't done me any good. How 'bout I just throw them in the trash barrel where they belong....ok? Jesus HAS done something great and nobel for us, and I believe it is up to us (me!) to bring it to all who would listen...to any who would come. I believe our brothers are those who are needy. Anyone who is in need, in fact. That includes our brothers in NAMBLA too!!! I must apologise If I have said anything that might even remotely be seen as though I am better than them in any way. Because the truth is, I am not. But the higher truth is that God loves and cares for us ALL, regardless of our sins. THAT is why our Lord, Jesus Christ came and loved us and died for us!!! "So the Word became human and lived on earth among us. He was full of unfailing love and faithfulness. And we have seen His glory, the glory of the only Son of the Father." John 1:14 And so I must recant in order to do His work. I am praying for them, and any who are brothers of mine. All BL's are my brothers! I pray I can be a light for my Lord....and an open hand to bring them to Him, instead of a pointed finger that might drive them away!!! "This is the message He has given us to announce to you: God is light and there is no darkness in Him at all." "...if we are living in the light of God's presence, just as Christ is, then we have fellowship with each other (!), and the blood of Jesus His Son, cleanses us from every sin." 1 John 1:5-7 In Christ's Love, Chris |
