Well, speaking of bodybags, what about India? How many people are dying there every day? (It's one of the most populous countries on earth.) And yet, how many of them is 3ABN reaching? As can be read on the Wikipedia ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3ABN ), currently none, since they were banned from the country. The next question is, Why? Is God doing damage control? Consider that 3ABN is representing God to millions, and God has an interest in preserving His name. Eternal death is much more to be feared than our mere departure from this life. It's too bad about those who never had a chance to hear the good news. May we never be responsible for such through our neglect.

It's too bad about those who never had a chance to hear the good news. May we never be responsible for such through our neglect. It is God's responsibility to reach everyone. We have an opportunity to be a vessel, a tool, a vehicle, to be part of that. When a vessel, a tool, or a vehicle becomes of no more use, there are other of the same. God is always in control. He doesn't NEED man/woman to do it for him. If we are given the opportunity and we blow it, I know MY GOD has many more mysterious ways to get it done still. God may do damage control, but I think He probably does many things at once every minute of time. I have faith in God to always do what is needed and when, and that to me makes me remember that HE IS IN CONTROL, and we need not worry about all the "whys". When we start thinking and become obsessed with the idea that we have to take care of everything, we can get off track very easily. And if we blow it? Is He not big enough to handle that? Remember, in heaven there will be people who never heard the name of Jesus. So, obviously, they will be there still. -------------------- Here's the thing - "...if you pull "folks" into a fight you don't know what "weapon" they will bring."
