There is nothing more depressing than listening to people making fun of God's servants. All entitled to jokes. Today (29), during lunch I came across this sad reality. Group of teenagers gave evangelical laughter who pray in tongues. It was said that Jesus is not deaf to hear prayers aloud.
One of them said it would never become a Christian. Not admit stay away from drink and the pleasures of this world. It was a shocking experience. I preferred to hear the voice of the Holy Spirit telling me to shut up. Listen in silence the taunts. A woman, who last attended evangelical churches, threw fuel on the fire.
It is proof of the fulfillment of God's Words. That's when the true Christian feels the skin the humiliations suffered by the Lord after the arrest made by the Romans, to culminate in the crucifixion. More interesting is that people making fun of Christians, have devastated life.
In my teens I made several jokes against evangelicals. Chaffed young, dresses and long hair; the jacket boys and well-behaved away from drink and drugs. Almost 25 years later accepted Jesus Christ to guide my steps. I prophesy that the authors of the jokes I heard today are God's servants soon.
