Hello Everyone,

Over the past week, I have fasted and prayed for 7 days in request for a dear friend of mine, Mehernaz (aka Naz), to get to know our Lord Jesus Christ and ultimately be saved. I asked God to open her eyes, ears and heart to the Word; asked Jesus to make a home and dwell in her heart and asked the Holy Spirit to flow in her body. I would just like to ask all of you, please, to pray that God will seek out this lost sheep and save her. I understand that God ultimately decides the opportune time to introduce Himself and His Son, I only pray He will consider today and not tomorrow. Thank you for praying for this person. May God bless all of you.

Sincerely, Josh C.

why is it so important that that person converts to christianity:s?

-- sdqa (sdqa@sdqa.com), December 25, 2004.

Because it is the stated will of God that all men be members of the Church He personally founded for them. Living within the will of God is the only responsibility we have during our earthly lives, and how well we do so will untimately be the sole measure of what our earthly lives are worth.

Laurent, if one does not want to be a christian or chooses not to even hear the message of Christ, then prayer, or better yet, prayer with fasting, can open their hearts first to prepare them to hear. Merely seeking out someone who is closed to discussion will not work.

I think that's everyone his/her free choice !!

But may I ask , why should/must a person hear the message ??

then prayer, or better yet, prayer with fasting, can open their hearts first to prepare them to hear

How or why should praying open another person's heart ??

Merely seeking out someone who is closed to discussion will not work.

How do you know that for sure ??

It sure is. However, i'm assuming you haven't heard much about the power of prayer and conversion have you.

But may I ask , why should/must a person hear the message ??

I think paul already answered your question.

How do you know that for sure ??

Because I personally know the guy.

-- DJ (newfiedufie@msn.com), December 28, 2004.

Because it is the stated will

Agree , but in case of Pauls'answer , not completely !!

People without a will , , that's .... scaring , horrible !!

that all men be members of the Church He personally founded for them

May I ask , and what if praying will not // doesn't help ??

Or why do people must have / follow a religion ??

I'm don't follow any church or religion !! As I said before , I think that's everyone's personal free choice !! But even than , you still can here a message , or the clew or whatever , unless you're "deaf" !!

Except:

Because I personally know the guy.

A "friend" mine is a stubbornly addicted alcoholic , he just will not listen , he's "deaf" as it can be !! He even knows it better than everyone else !! The First 2 weeks of each month (every day of them) , he drinks his bank account to Zero (unemployment money) , the last 2 weeks , each time , he's asking to borrow him some money (??) , but I simply don't give it !! If you start a bet with that guy , 100€ if you quit drinking for 6 months !! The day after , he's partying again !!!!!!!! Talk about the AA with him , he's denying full ahead , logical it seems , of course , 'cause everyone else is addicted , not him !! Like I said/wrote: he's "deaf' for every advice you give him & gave to him !! Even with his parents !!

Behaviour & respect:

In a bar , he pays (2€) and it's 1,5€ , the bartender gives him back (accidently) 0,4€ , oh man , sometimes he becomes ruthless , sometimes even aggressive , he whistles on his fingers to the bartender and starts yelling at him !! His attitude / behaviour is just sick !! People who see him for the first time , they already have enough of him !!

Even this:

At every town / village he's goings out , he will urinate (only once , he told me) against every church he comes along ; of course , he waits untill he's his alone , he said !! (That's just sick , no respect for someone else property !!)

So , I know exactly what you mean !! Also a few other friends of mine have enough of that guy !!
