Nobody wants to be a fool. But imagine what it would be like to live in another world where everybody was blind. You would be telling the people there how beautiful the sky, the earth, and the sea are. But the blind people of that other world would probably think you you were crazy. After all, they would say, nobody has even heard of people seeing the things you talk about.
That's what it's like to be a Christian in this world. Most people don't know God or Jesus Christ, personally. And they don't see the works of God. As a Christian myself, I would want to tell others about Jesus and how wonderful it is to know Him. But sometimes people will say, "you're a fool to tell them about Jesus," because they don't even know He's alive. So, we have to be ready to be "fools for Christ's Sake", it's just a small price compared to the price He paid to save us!

I am sure some people will say your crazy for sharing Christ to others.I know some people will not recognize Gods wonderful creation,but the most is His salvation offered for free to any who will accept.Hope people will know it for now while they are alive..

That's so true! We really encounter such criticism when it comes to God's activities that we're doing in life, but personally it feels good though that people are calling me that way because in the first place, it is God who is being pleased and that's only matters most. :-)

There is a saying that in the land of the blind, the one eyed man is king. This however, is untrue, in the land of the blind, the one eyed man is crucified
I would be happy to be a fool, if being a fool meant I would see a little of what is seen by he who has eyes in the land of the blind
all the best urban

Perhaps you are a fool for Christ's sake but what makes you think you are better as the other fools who don't believe in him? Or who do believe in an other god or goddess? Who are you to judge? How about respecting others, their opinion, their way of living and their believes? Where is the part about loving others like yourself?

I can understand what you pointed out here, and don't get me any wrong about what I'm sharing because first of all, it is never my intention to offend anyone or not even to defend my belief or whatsoever one may call it. I do respect everyone's opinions and beliefs and it's not that I came out clean to what I said, and I'm no better than anyone else's just so you know. Peace Out!
