Our Sermon Section

In Reference to: 16 September 2012 - Where Is Their Mercy?

Pastor Frank,

I wept when I read your sermon. I used to be an agnostic/atheist because no Christian I ever knew would speak the truth and so I thought God was not Love or Kindness. I wondered if He loved/condoned killing even though He said "Thou shalt not kill." Nothing ever made sense. So in my mind He did not seem Real.

And yes, when I leaflet, people often say "No - I don't want to know" or wordlessly turn their heads and walk away from me. And yes, my relatives died from meat-given diseases and still would not stop - and denied to the very end that eating other living breathing beings killed them.

I always send your sermon to my sister but I am afraid to send it to non-veg friends for fear of losing them. What do you think I should do? What do you do?

I will send it along today to veg friends who are no longer believers because they still see God as cruel/unreal because no Christian they know will speak the truth. Maybe reading this will heal their hearts as it is healing mine.

As always, I really have no words that can express my gratitude to you for your courage and strength.

With love,

Barb
