Today, two guys in our congregation at church publicly proclaimed that they love Jesus and desire to follow Him wholeheartedly. It was beautiful to watch them get baptized, and to know that on this Easter Sunday, Jesus is alive and well.
In other news, I've been getting some hits to my blog from this blog post. Interesting. I wanted to quote something from it (the writer is apparently a student from the University of Alberta):
All the talk about porn aside, I’m sick of the religious advertising everywhere. Seeing PORN NATION plastered everywhere across campus gets on my nerves, and even when it wasn’t there, the whole place is covered in leaflets inviting me to find Jesus. Everywhere I go, old men are offering me free Gideon bibles. F**k!
You know, reading this makes me feel happy, despite the negative attitude. For some, the gospel will be a revolting stench, reminding them of death. For others, the gospel will be a sweet fragrance. On Easter Sunday, it was so fitting to read about how Jesus is alive on campus, actively reaching out to those who do not know Him and inviting them into a personal relationship with the Creator of the Universe.
