INT'L FOOLS FOR CHRIST: Who are we?
A simple supra-rational summary of who I serve with:
International "Fools" for Christ.
We are one organism, but cannot organize ourselves.
Instead, the head directs our steps.
International: 2 Chronicles 16:9
Fools: Proverbs 17:24
for Christ: 2 Corinthians 4:12-13
Those who seek the face of God like David. (Psalm 27, 34)
Those who expect life from the barren & resurrection from death like Abraham. (Hebrews 11:11-12, 19)
Those who, like Paul, find a peace beyond psychology. (Philippians 4:5-8)
Those who persevere for the blessing like Jacob (Genesis 32:26).
Those who, like Moses, would see the unseen by faithfully looking to Jesus. (Hebrews 11:27)
Those who find a joy which cannot be adequately expressed in human language & is full of glory. (1 Peter 1:8-9)
Those who daily long to know the the unknowable love which is in Christ Jesus alone. (Ephesians 3:14-21)
We are those who have found the city of God, not geographically bound.
We are those who have found redemption, not with gold or silver.
We are those who have been saved, though not by ourselves.
We are those who have hope, against any human hope.
We have lost our own minds in order to gain the mind of Christ.
We have lost our own strength in order to know the power of God.
We have become as nothing that we might know the supply of the Holy Spirit.
We have become as rubbish in order to find rubies for the King's crown.
