It may be illegal in the not too distant future that spreading the Gospel will earn jail time, loss of job, fines, or any other punishments that Satan's cohorts will dream up. One thing I do now is put religious tracts in car-door handles in parking lots. It is illegal here to put any kind of advertising on cars parked on public streets and will earn fines or jail time.

One way of spreading the gospel is by religious tracts. Public libraries are a good source of books in which Christians can place tracts. Libraries carry books on witchcraft, abortion, and many other categories of books that are prime targets for religious tracts. Free newspapers and magazines are carried in groceries and other public places: Tracts placed in these papers and magazines can reach large audiences.

Is ignoring the sure death of eternal souls forever really a MUCH better use of anyone's time?

The sad irony, Buck -- after this mortal world ends, *you* won't have any excuse or pleading of ignorance when you approach the Great Throne of your Maker in judgment.

Yet still -- all things and events in your life have brought you to people like Don and THIS very moment of great decision. You *still* have time to humble yourself before the Lord and ask for Jesus' grace. You can be assured of the embrace in the bosom of the Lord forever in Paradise...OR succumb to the unpleasant alternative and lie. Isn't it amazing that you still have a choice in the matter?

I am reminded of a sermon that was given by the former leader of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America, Archbishop Iakovos.

He had been ordained to the priesthood and started his ministry in a Church within the country of Turkey. Turkey has Muslim "sermon police" who actually show up to Sunday services to monitor Christian pastors' sermons to see if they said anything "offensive to Islam".

Not surprisingly, shortly after this new young priest began his sermon, the Muslims placed him in handcuffs and took him to a Turkish jail. When his Bishop came to bail him out, young Iakovos was in tears. "Your Grace, if I cannot even proclaim the Gospel in my sermons, how can I ever serve God in our Church?"

"Do not be anxious, Iakovos." the elderly cleric replied, "Come see me tomorrow and I will teach you how to preach a sermon that will be faithful to Jesus Christ and that will not get you arrested."

Iakovos showed up early at the Bishop's office and followed him throughout the day as he did his regular pastoral rounds, visiting sick people, taking food to poor families, visiting a retirement home and ministering to elderly Christians there. As the nighttime approached, an irritated Iakovos asked: "So when are you going to teach me how to give sermons that won't get me arrested?"

"Why Iakovos, I've been teaching you how to do that all day today. Preach the Gospel. Use words only when necessary."

It is good to show Christianity, but the Bible is clear on the importance of words as well. Perhaps, different people need different ways of learning about God; however, It is the Holy Spirit who works in people to guide them into the truth and knowledge of God, but He also uses people to accomplish His purposes.

Indeed the bishop taught the then young priest the works and love of Christ. However, the Greatest Love was Christ sacrificing His own Life for sinners. If that got the priest arrested, actually preaching the Gospel of Christ crucified, died and Risen, then he will have his crown in heaven. If we are silent on the Truth of the Gospel, then we deny Christ to others.

The advice from the bishop is sound. From our emulation of Christ people will inquire about our faith. However we must be prepared to tell others why this Light shines from us and there is no avoiding preaching the Cross and Empty Tomb when we do. Otherwise we cloud the Object of our faith.

Indeed so, and to clarify, the Bishop was certainly not counseling Iakovos to never proclaim the truth of Jesus Christ -- it may be hard for us to see clearly since we have enjoyed so much freedom here -- it was more of a situation of making sure that when you do speak about Jesus with words, that it is more likely that those words will count. He did, after all, say "use words when necessary."

A person who has been shown the love of Jesus Christ for an extended period will be much more likely to be receptive to the Gospel than someone that just sees a random tract that was left by an anonymous stranger. Can a random tract sometimes bear fruit? Certainly. But what the Bishop was trying to teach, among other things, is that if we find ourselves in a situation where speech can mean jail time, or worse, then the wise thing to do is to make sure that our speech has to maximum impact possible once we decide to speak.

It's not unlike someone in a gunfight with a very limited amount of ammo -- choose your shots carefully and make them count.

The history of the Church teaches us that if we come into a period of intense persecution as was endured in the first centuries, that very often a bold proclamation of the Gospel in public will be our last, so we should make sure that it is not in vain. St. Ignatius of Antioch had observed that some people had thought to themselves that they would face martyrdom bravely and had sought it out, but that when the tortures began they gave in and died in shame. So we should not actively seek to be persecuted, but if it comes upon us we should pray that God will fill us with the same courage as He did to St. Polycarp:

"Polycarp 9:3 But when the magistrate pressed him hard and said, 'Swear the oath, and I will release thee; revile the Christ,' Polycarp said, 'Fourscore and six years have I been His servant, and He hath done me no wrong. How then can I blaspheme my King who saved me?'

Polycarp 10:1 But on his persisting again and saying, 'Swear by the genius of Caesar,' he answered, 'If thou supposest vainly that I will swear by the genius of Caesar, as thou sayest, and feignest that thou art ignorant who I am, hear thou plainly, I am a Christian. But if thou wouldest learn the doctrine of Christianity, assign a day and give me a hearing.'

Polycarp 10:2 The proconsul said; 'Prevail upon the people.' But Polycarp said; 'As for thyself, I should have held thee worthy of discourse; for we have been taught to render, as is meet, to princes and authorities appointed by God such honor as does us no harm; but as for these, I do not hold them worthy, that I should defend myself before them.'

Polycarp 11:1 Whereupon the proconsul said; 'I have wild beasts here and I will throw thee to them, except thou repent' But he said, 'Call for them: for the repentance from better to worse is a change not permitted to us; but it is a noble thing to change from untowardness to righteousness'

Polycarp 11:2 Then he said to him again, 'I will cause thee to be consumed by fire, if thou despisest the wild beasts, unless thou repent.' But Polycarp said; 'Thou threatenest that fire which burneth for a season and after a little while is quenched: for thou art ignorant of the fire of the future judgment and eternal punishment, which is reserved for the ungodly. But why delayest thou? Come, do what thou wilt.'

Polycarp 12:1 Saying these things and more besides, he was inspired with courage and joy, and his countenance was filled with grace, so that not only did it not drop in dismay at the things which were said to him, but on the contrary the proconsul was astounded and sent his own herald to proclaim three times in the midst of the stadium, 'Polycarp hath confessed himself to be a Christian.'

Polycarp 12:2 When this was proclaimed by the herald, the whole multitude both of Gentiles and of Jews who dwelt in Smyrna cried out with ungovernable wrath and with a loud shout, 'This is the teacher of Asia, the father of the Christians, the puller down of our gods, who teacheth numbers not to sacrifice nor worship.' Saying these things, they shouted aloud and asked the Asiarch Philip to let a lion loose upon Polycarp. But he said that it was not lawful for him, since he had brought the sports to a close.

Polycarp 12:3 Then they thought fit to shout out with one accord that Polycarp should be burned alive."

And to add a bit more, along the lines of Paul Harvey's 'The Rest of the Story', once Iakovos moved to America and became the Greek Orthodox Archbishop here, he still remembered the lessons that he had learned under Turkish oppression -- that sometimes actions speak louder than words.

Based on our conversation of demonstrating the Gospel in action, I wanted to share the below from Francis Schaeffer a Christian author, philosopher and apologist:

Let us look again at the biblical texts which so clearly indicate the mark of the Christian:

A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another. (John 12:34-35)

That all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me. (John 17:21)

What then shall we conclude but that as the Samaritan loved the wounded man, we as Christians are called upon to love all men as neighbors, loving them as ourselves. Second, that we are to love all true Christian brothers in a way that the world may observe. This means showing love to our brother in the midst of our differences -- great or small -- loving our brothers when it costs us something, loving them even under times of tremendous emotional tension, loving them in a way the world can see. In short, we are to practice and exhibit the holiness of God and the love of God, for without this we grieve the Holy Spirit.

Love -- and the unity it attests to -- is the mark Christ gave Christians to wear before the world. Only with this mark may the world know that Christians are indeed Christians and that Jesus was sent by the Father.

In some countries, it would mean jail time or worse.

I don't believe you really believe in a God.

Tic tock...Tic Tock... Time is marching on to a time when you will have no choice but to believe in God.

I believe your point is what drives YOU to perform strange and archaic actions. Here, let me let you in on a little secret: just go into a quiet place, [s]uch as a closet as Jesus suggested.

You are afraid to die, aren't ya Donnie? So you run around with various antics as through there is a requirement to enter the Kingdom of the afterlife called "heaven."

I think you have gone oft the deep end.

Well there was this instance once that I had a kidney stone; Man that issue was painful, too. I thought I was dying as I couldn't walk without sever pain running up and down my right side of the body.

So, I went to my medical doctor. He diagnosed my pain as a kidney stone. He told me, be a man about the 200mm stone; pregnent women have children everyday and live.

He kicked me out of office without even a pain reliever.

Well, that's a start anyway.

Christians have a safety button. They know where they will go. The main problem is leaving loved ones behind and leaving the known for the unknown. I have been close to dying, but never made it all the way. The younger versions of us know it's always the other fellow. That sounds like a cliche, but it was true for me. The older versions know better.

Am I afraid of dying? Not so much anymore.

Actually, it is not a cliché. As we age, you hear about death more and more and more indirectly and/or directly.

Am I afraid of dying? Not so much anymore.

??? Please explain your riddle.

Hence some Christians are resorting to stealth mode and other cloaking devices when witnessing.

Indeed. For centuries on these shores in North America open air preaching of the Gospel of Christ has been a hallmark of our freedoms.

Now we draw closer with our Asian and African (and some cases European) brothers and sisters now facing the test of Matthew 10:32-33

32 “Therefore whoever confesses Me before men, him I will also confess before My Father who is in heaven. 33 But whoever denies Me before men, him I will also deny before My Father who is in heaven.

For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.---John 1:17

A loving judge is now requiring D'Sousa to undergo psychological treatment. Welcome to the Mad Hatter's tea party.

Wow, did not know that. Considering liberalism IS a mental disorder.

Well here it is...

Fed Judge Orders Psych Counseling for Dinesh D'Souza

A federal judge has ordered Dinesh D’Souza to undergo ongoing psychological counseling, despite two psychologists already clearing him.

U.S. District Judge Richard M. Berman told D'Souza that he considers his violation of federal campaign finance laws to be evidence of a psychological problem and ordered further counseling.

D'Souza said the judge already ordered him to complete eight months of counseling and once he finished, the judge said it wasn't adequate.

D'Souza added that a prominent New York psychiatrist also "certified that he was perfectly normal" and provided a written statement to the court concluding there was no need to continue the consultation.

But Berman, who was appointed by President Bill Clinton, overruled the judgment of the two licensed psychologists.

The riddle is fairly easy to solve if you see one there. On my next birthday, 31 July, I will be 70, with all of the aches and pains, the infirmities, the plain getting tired of this really messed up world, and the hope of a better world to come. Death doesn't have the fears that it once did.
