One object of pursuit

There is ONE object of pursuit in life and that is Jesus Christ, and none other. Not Holiness, nor purity, nor security, nor goodness, nor generosity, nor any fruit of the Spirit- they are fruits - not objects of pursuit, not happiness, (it is a mind set, it can't be pursued), nor missions, nor ministry. All these are enjoyed as by products. They are enjoyed because they are good, but they are good because they are right. They are right because God has designed them that way. The best thing for a man to do is to bow his head before the Lord of the universe, Jesus Christ, the cornerstone, the solution, the origin, of all things material and immaterial. All the universe falls in place in looking at him. 

He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation. For by him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things were created through him and for him. And he is before all things, and in him all things hold together. And he is the head of the body, the church. He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in everything he might be preeminent. For in him all the fullness of God was pleased to dwell, and through him to reconcile to himself all things, whether on earth or in heaven, making peace by the blood of his cross.
Colossians 1:15-20

...There is one God, the Father, from whom are all things and for whom we exist, and one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom are all things and through whom we exist.
1 Cor 8:6


For from him and through him and to him are all things. To him be glory forever. Amen.
Romans 11:36

Random Thought

If it weren't for the doctrine of justification by grace through faith in Jesus Christ, I would probably be an agnostic

I can't believe I get the honor of calling her my sister....  :)
Can I say something? Being a part of this thing called 'Christianity' I have gotten to see the Christian God very closely. I have also gotten to see how he can transform people, very closely. There are few of them. There are never many... but there are. The God who works in them... woh kuch aur hai.... He is something else!

Agnosticism appeals to my brain, Christ to all my being and Atheism to nothing

My cup runneth over

"If we give the impression that the main effect of Christianity is to make us miserable, then it is not surprising that ninety per cent of the people are outside the Christian church. 'Miserable Christians,' they say, 'look at them!' And they add that they have life, they have joy, they have fullness. Shame on us Christian people! But it is not merely a question of saying shame on us. What a terrible responsibility is ours if we are so misrepresenting this 'glorious gospel of the blessed God' (1 Timothy 1:11). We are meant to be witnesses to all people that we are filled to overflowing. We are meant to show the truth of the psalmist's words: 'My cup runneth over!' (Psalm 23:5)."

Advice for Athiests

To be a genuine, skilled and an effective atheist - an atheist at heart who truly believes what he says, (especially to be the kind that attacks Christianity or at the minimum, the kind that will have a slightly more lasting effect on me, a Christian) you should understand Christianity... so that when you fire your arrows at it you know you have aimed for the right target.

I don't have much of a problem with the fact that you attack Christianity (I am quite for it) but with that your arrows miss it completely and that you call whatever it hits Christianity. Then I have to go pick up the arrow and say, "Hey, you gotta aim correctly". Don't get me wrong. I think you are skilled. You just gotta know what you want to aim at.


Somewhere there, my friend, somewhere where you want to aim at lies the best news of your life.
