Dear JYs and more specially Wijo Yeah we need to pray. But lets us remember Two Things :
1. To Fear is to concede. So if u fear the Lord u acknowledge his greatness. if you fear the evil one u acknowledge his greatness. u chose whom to fear now. u can neither serve two masters. neither can u not serve no masters. 2. Dogs Bark. Whether Black / White / dalmation / dober hound whatever. They bark. You feed it, it remains quite. But after sometime somewhatever reason, it will bark again. Some of them even bite. The thing is are you afraid of being bitten ???? The Hindus will bark against Christians, Even the Muslims, Even the Atheists whoever. They raise 10,000 points , you will give them 10,000 reasons. And even after all this they will find Point No. 10,001 and so on Remember, you havent become a Christian on your own accord. Christ has chosen you. Christ has chosen them too to remind you that you are a Christian. In his time they will realise. Who knows you may be his vehicle for them to travel to their faith in Christ. But till then hold firm to your faith and Pray that whatever his will let it be done. Let not such outburst overwhelm you. There are still many more to come and many more to continue. However if u do feel that such matters are affecting u or stunting ur faith then to every point raised seek advise from a Priest or any word minister [[EMAIL PROTECTED] :)] or maybe Joynet out here. It is good to have some discussion out here periodically. Wijo, If you notice from your own mail. The Hindu + Muslims are not telling Christians against Christ. They are more telling their own flock about why they should not become Christians. More than you afraid of what they could do to you they are more afraid of people leaving and following the one true God:) Take Care urs in faith Jason Mumbai, India ======================================================== Time is a versatile performer.
