Re: [parablenet] RE: Will you go to the Benny Hinn Crusade?
JY's I was closely tracking the discussions on Benny Hinn crusade. So many views, arguments it was very interestingbut now I feel it has crossed all barriers and are aiming at people than than issue.and there is one person who is laughing at.the ENEMY I really dont know whether we should spend so much time in finding who is right / wrong with regard to the crusade I CHALLENGE you people,to take up issues that will help us to grow more closer to Christ and his people. I as an individual look forward from Joynet is to learn more from the rich experiences and knowledge of the my fellow Joynetters, so that I become more encouraged and motivated with regard to my mission in spreading the Love of Christ.

I think the problem is in your own mind. It is because of people like you who only know to bark but cant raise a finger to do any good that are the reason for the sad state of our community today. You have the name of an apostle added to your name, but have you ever lived up to that name? What have you done till today (except crib and raise allegations) to promote the unity in the Church where you belong? Dont bother replying. I have better work to do than sit and reply to confused minds like you. In Christ service, Irma Quoting [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Dear Irma, Thanks for the reply and I understood the overall thrust of your arguments - we have to safeguard the flock. But my concern is, What about those who are not of His flock? This crusade is presently with that in mind. You mentioned of certain sects with some dangerous backgrounds - such groups are always there a tiny minority, but we should lift our vision to higher levels. There are robbers on the highway, but that does not mean that vehicles stop plying. The work has to go on, inspite of minor impediments. One way is if the church leaders come together and seriously work on ecumenism - unfortuanately, it does not happen, or very infrequent contacts (mainly reduced to the one week unity octave programmes). If this was done with greater enthusiasm, this would be the right forum to address sheep stealing issues. But no one really is interested in unity moves - some see this as a threat to their existence, position in the current church structure (includes pastors, priests, evangelists, lay ministry leaders, etc.) All churches have this sheep protection mentality, forgetting that ultimately there will be one flock and one shepherd - all churches are responsible for disunity in different degrees. The prayer of Jesus that they may be One is very important - Jesus is reported to have told Vassula Ryden, the well known mystic, that the main churches (Catholic, Protestant, Orthodox) are like 3 bars that refuse to bend. He said that unity has to first be in the heart - then we will work in the outside. Secondly, why this apathy to the Charismatic Renewal movement within the Church? I am referring to the very cold attitudes of many clergy (though they will openly profess their love when a fr. Augustine vallooran conducts a meeting, but when the lay people approach him to start a prayer meeting, all sorts of obstacles are put). Let there be freedom, then the Spirit will freely flow, live and let live. Thirdly, I think it not right to pass judgements like Most of our so-called Spirit-filled Catholics leave and join other sects because they want more... greedy hypocrites... Let us deal with root causes within and walk in love with one another - most problems will be taken care of. Thanks for the valuable points you gave me - but I thought it necessary to stress on certain nagging issues which we are always shying away from - deal with the root and the fruit will be okay. All the Best, Binny John. -Original Message- From: Irma Raymond [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, February 12, 2004 1:00 PM To: binny john (WT01 - TECHNOLOGY INFRASTRUCTURE SERVICES (GS)) Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: Will you go to the Benny Hinn Crusade?

Re: [JOYnet] Don't fall and get fractured
Hi I feel Jennifer's mail is really a balanced one. We absolutely have no right to judge a person, whether he/she is doing right or wrong. I also feel that we are going to the extreems...trying to prove points the way we like. We can always suggest the ' + ves' and '-ves' based on what we have seen, heard and experienced. But let's not make judgements saying that this is wrong that is right. My experience is that if we sincerly ask Lord from our heart...for his guidance/ help with regard to our decisions(let it be anything) He'll definitly help you and guide you And who in the world can give you the best decission other than our Lord Jesus Christ God Bless Jose Antony Bangalore, India - Original Message - From: Jennifer [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Joynet [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, February 28, 2003 11:52 AM Subject: Fw: [JOYnet] Don't fall and get fractured Dear Friends in Christ, It's good to know so many among us sharing on the topic of. Also noteworthy are many life experiences on the topic of arranged marriage. It's very disheartening however to see that one is shown only one side of the coin and a general assumption made that Love marriages fail. Moresover it is a sorry state as mentioned by Br. Jude Asogwa that too much of emphasis is laid upon the erotic love. Let me share my set of experiences - I also belong to an organization called Legion of Mary. I personally know many members among the same group who liked each other came before God, seeked His blessings and are happily married till date..so what if they were in love before marriage...who are we to judge whether their falling in love before marriage is a Sin. That means even Jacob was a sinner because he felled in love with Rachael (does the Bible say so, esp. to those who quote the Bible and interpret the Word of God according to their convenience). I am sorry to say but how can one interpret the Bible just to prove their point. This was even done by the Pharisees when they brought the woman caught in adultery in front of Jesus and they quoted the word of God where the law of Moses mentioned that in such situation, the woman has to be stoned to death. What did Jesus had to say, He asked the Pharisees, the one who has not committed any sin will throw the first stone. Then was there anyone to condemn her, no one. But the word of God says Adultery is a sin still Jesus forgived her because above every law is God's Love Mercy. It's a good thing that many get married to the girl/boy their parents make a choice but it's definitely not bad to like a girl or boy and then show him/her to the parents and seek their approval. How can one say that the choice of getting arranged marriage was yours infact everything done in our lives is a plan of God. How can we judge that my neighbour who did a love marriage is wrong and that I have done an arranged marriage am right? Who r we to point out to the plan of God. I have seen so many arranged marriages breaking up. What reason can u give here? How can anyone make a statement that Love marriages fail? How can some people be so fanatic? I can only say that a term like LOVE has been badly smashed and brought down to a level of erotic love by many among us. Inspite of making it very clear the different kinds of love, still why the falling in love is condemned as erotic love. I can understand this kind assault being done by the others who knows nothing about Agape love. DON'T FALL AND GET FRACTURED - I would like to put my own commentsif only Jesus wud have thought like this and avoided falling just because He was scared of the pain, I donno whether we cud have enjoyed Salvation. Christ says unless you fall you cannot rise. I am not encouraging anyone to fall in love before marriage neither am I against arranged marriage, I only want to say that let us not close our minds. God has His own way of working. His plans for different people will be different and we have no right to question it. wrong choices are made by us whether in arranged or love marriage but God who Loves us too much can change every bad thing to good. I have seen many arranged marriages being total failures. What answer is there for this. Why these marriages are broken if only arranged marriage is the will of God and why Love marriages sustain if it is not the will of God. This argument of arranged marriage being the will of God and love not being the will of God is baseless. I have seen some of my friends seeking the will of God before taking the decision of marriage in their lives be it Love marriage or arranged. One of my close colleague who also counsels many had shared one of this experience which I had mentioned in the previous mail and that is of purifying oneself before receiving the Sacrament of Matrimony. How many couples spend time in making a good confession and come before the Lord
Re: My comments on [JOYnet] SIMPLICITY.. my view...
Hi, I too agree with Ravifor most people when you talk abt simplicityThe first thing comes to mind is about the dress you wear...the way you look etc etc. I feel our priority should be the internal simplicity(I mean Simplicity in our hearts). If we try to become simple in our hearts...it will have an automatic effect on our external appearence and behaviour. Not by wearing simple dress or giving a simple looks will make a person simple. If Jesus has given you the best of things .I feel that we should use it and glorify Him..than saying I'd like to be simple ...so I prefer the other way.

[JOYnet] Tith
Hi everyone I totally agree to all the mails posted with regard to ' Tithing '. I have heard many experiences with regard to the same. It's easy to Tith when you are financially comfortable. I know a person who was without a job for a long time even after he finished his studies. and this guy used to get really frustrated abt it. But one thing which he used to do faithfully was to give tith from the little pocket money (30 Rs) which he used to get from his dad. ( This person is not in the renewalbut a strong believer of the Word). Today Lord has blessed him with a wonderfull job and he's earning more than a lakh of ruppes a month.(and still he give tith) The poor widow gave from the little she had . and the Lord was pleased I used to feel satisfied for the fact that I give 10% of my earnings to the Lordtill I heard someone giving 50 % of his earnings to the Lord. One thing is for sureThe more we give the more we'll be blessed...The word says ... Those who give to the poor is giving to the Lord and Lord will give it back..not in the same fold but in multiples. Another thing is that.. most of us tith our earnings(money) to the Lord..TRY if you can tith your TIME alsoout of 24 hrs that we have each day. a min of 2.4 hrs to be in the presence of the Lordthanking Himpraising Him...hearing Him wowit'll be awesome Ciao God Bless...
