After talking about the helpfulness of asking questions, Greg suggests asking permission to ask another question “Do you mind if I ask you a question?”
His first substantive question is then “What do you mean by that?”
His second question is “How did you come to that conclusion?”
Asking simple questions allows people to relax and really think about why they believe things, and often, to use the Simon and Garfunkel defence (The Sounds of Silence).
In that situation, it is possible to help people really compare what they believe with the claims of the Christian gospel.
It’s easy to point the finger at what other people do wrong. I’m really good at doing that. It’s harder to stop and think clearly about ourselves. What does our life amount to? Can we even keep our own standards? And how do we deal with it if we don’t? This poster encourages people to think about this issue.
Yes – it’s eye catching. No – no one is suggesting anyone gets out a gun. Instead, get thinking about stuff that we might sometimes put in the ‘don’t care’ or ‘too hard’ basket.
Am I really ready to meet god? Especially if we aren’t even sure if he/she/it exists.
If you want to talk with someone about that kind of question, well, that’s what we’re here for.
Well that’s what a self-styled US preacher and radio entrepreneur was telling anyone who’d listen last week.
What do you make of these kind of things?
Over at his Westminster Seminary Blog, Robert Godfrey offers more than just opinions. He has known Harold Camping (the pastor who was spreading the apocalyptic message) for over 50 years.
It’s an interesting read, and offers food for thought about how crackpot ideas can gain a standing amongst ordinary people.
“What if what you’ve believed your whole life isn’t the real Christ? Truth is everything. It does have eternal consequences!”
Eight individuals…devoted, faithful Mormons with unshakable testimonies and a sincere love for the LDS Church…now say that they have found something greater–something beyond compare.
What could possibly cause them to abandon what they had always held near and dear? What could make them step away from the very foundation of their lives? What life could they have possibly found beyond Mormonism?
Come hear their stories. It may not be what you’re thinking.
With the arrival of the dry season, our extra services have started.
You’re welcome to attend any, or all! Please call for confirmation of services, as last minute variations do occur.
