    Ravi Zacharias makes the statement;

    The Spiritual Challenge of the Evangelist to so breathe the spirit of God into himself, so bathe his mind in the word of God, so be in tune with the Creator & the Master of the Universe, so bring his life in tune with the the Lord Jesus Christ to be a reflector of the Lord.

    Have you thought of it that way, that your spiritual challenge was those things?

    Hello Earth, Wind & Fire

    It seems as though, Ravi Zacharias is confusing the issue:
    By making things appear harder than they really are.

    The Bible says.......
    Ecclesiastes 12:13
    “Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this [is] the whole [duty] of man.”

    --------------------------------------------------
    When we are in obedience, “God” will breath His spirit into us(filling us with the Spirit), and everything else will come naturally.........
    Galatians 5:16
    “[This] I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.”



    These words of Ravi Zacharias, sound flowery and touching, but they seem to simply gum up the best way to worship and serve the LORD; Obedience, Obedience, Obedience!

    I really like Ravi Z. I listen to him on the radio when I can catch him.
