The 3 Ms


7.7.'19
The 3 Ms

I see it daily. And I remember the words of Philip Yancey. A religious organisation uses 3 Ms to control and manipulate people: Miracles, Magic and Mystic. And dumb-ass zealots will come running. They will fill the ranks of the extremists of one religion or the other. On the alter of their chosen religion at the beck and call of the leader all will sacrifice their individualities. Of course most of these moron don't even have any mind of their own much to begin with or else they wouldn't have landed themselves at such a predicament. And then out of the portals of some Bible College or Gurukul or Madrasa will march out moral policemen and women to judge and condemn everything that has breath.

Many will be massacred either by the weapons they carry but mostly by their condemnation and judging attitudes. Words that pass through their mouths and glances that passes from their eyes.

Where does it all end? It ends when they fall a prey to their own judging and condemning attitude when they realise how fallen they themselves are and they have trampled underfoot the source of all saving. They have never had tasted Grace.
