Missions

I am listening to these lectures from the Ockenga Institute Online (through Gordon-Conwell) and the lectures are so good.

I can't quite describe the feel they give me, but its the same feeling I felt sitting in my Perspectives on the World Christian Movement back in... 2003 I guess? A long time ago.

Its that feeling of a whole lot of smart talented people pouring their lives into missions, this amazing labor force enabled with the much more amazing Holy Spirit of God, and they are coupled together to complete this joyful task and bring the End, and the End will be ultimate Joy as we see Jesus on His throne. And all that labor force, and all the people that have loved Him and died, and all those buried in that missionary graveyard outside Nairobi, Kenya, and all those Africans that sing so loud and well, and all the quiet worship types, we'll all be there and there will be no more pain, and it will be worth it.

That's kindof the feeling, and it reconfirms and reconfirms and reconfirms every day to me that I would not want to be anywhere else but working in Christian Missions, promoting the only Message that really came to help all the problems in the world, the gospel of Jesus Christ.

So it is getting me ready...
