"It's 'magic'..."

(--continuing on from the previous post:...)

What will it ("The 90-Day, '90-Second', Worldwide 'Wonder' of God") DO? --It'll "UNITE".

"Unite" who? (Answer:) "EVERY PURE-HEARTED FOLLOWER"...
(--"GLOBALLY"--)...
"--of The Light of the World."

And, what will 'we' "DO WITH IT" then,... --after 'we''re "united"?
(Answer:) "(We will) ACCOMPLISH GOD's WILL." ...
"--as His Holy SPIRIT...
...will 'LEAD'".

(But, "the 'magic'" of it ('all') (of course) will (--THEN--) be that (--"FROM 'NOW' (then)- ON"--) we'll be 'ministering' IN Power... to the em-POWERed.
(--i.e., to the ('already') "'EARED' to 'HEAR'"(!).)


(--And, THAT will make... "ALL THE DIFFERENCE"...
..."IN THE WORLD"(!).


('Amen.')

"'For (and 'Because of') Your Loving..."

(...continuing on from the previous post, 'we''ll entitle today's entry:)

'Conception' of "90/90" ("(-'09)")
(:"'For' (and 'Because of') Your Loving:
(Global) 'Smoking-Out' (--of 'Hiding'--) of
the (em-Powered (and em-Power-'able')) 'ANYBODIES'")

(...and (again), continuing on:)


--Though I had PRAYED to know if the young filmmaker's "'arrival' from 'out of nowhere'" had been ('unquestionably') "of the Lord" (i.e., (particularly) 'arranged', ('set up') by Him), I 'received' no answer(s) to that/those prayers. Therefore (the 'situation' was ('beginning to seem') that), though 'who could say it ('definitely') HAD been' ('so'),... (--'equally',--)... 'who could say it HADN'T?

ONE thing, however, was (certainly) "for certain": (that is (was):) Whether or not THIS particular young man could be 'enticed into' participation in the global 'birthing' of "The Time of (the) Light (of the World)", whatever 'approach(es)' might be 'useful' in 'winning' HIM to 'the idea'... 'would be' "the same one (or ones) that/which... 'would' ('serve to') 'win'... --'ANYBODY'"!


Therefore,... maybe 'the purpose' of the young man's 'appearance' 'on the scene'... was/had been to 'win to em-Power-ment' (in the Spirit of God), not THIS (particular) 'SOMEBODY', but,... (--who knows?: maybe--)... a 'whole WORLD'... of... 'ANYBODIES'. (!) (--'Anybodies', that is,... "born of (the) Christ (-Spirit)"... "--in Holy Ghost Power.) (Maybe 'the goal' (of our meeting) was/had been the global 'smoking-out' (of their 'hiding-places') of the (vast numbers of --who KNOWS how (--possibly,--) many(?)-- of) (the) ('simply') previously "unable to be 'LOCATED'" (but, nonetheless (--for all 'we' know (knew)--), "'just-waiting'"... 'ANYBODIES'!)


(And, THAT's "the POINT": GLOBAL 'REACHING'. (--Which will UNQUESTIONABLY, 'EFFORTLESSLY', IMMEDIATELY (--in the SPIRITUAL 'Body' of "("the Truth" that is (the Power of)) GOD"--)... 'LINK' (--in (Loving) SERVICE--) the Holy-Ghost em-POWER-ed... of... (disciples 'in' and "of") CHRIST JESUS. (-!!))

(And, 'so',... "--LORD,... has this ('all') 'been' 'for' (and 'because of') Your LOVING of (and 'towards') all of Your... (--'just'-waiting--)... 'ANYBODIES'...? (--"ALL OVER the WORLD"?)
(--REGARDLESS of whether or not this young man "from out of 'NOWHERE'" is (--and/or will be--)... "interested" AT ALL?)"

The "'just-waiting', em-Powered, and em-Power-ABLE", 'ANYBODIES'... are all 'out there',... "JUST waiting"... (But,... must NOT be "KEPT so".
(--'Would' 'say'... (--and, I say, "DOES 'say'"--)... the LORD.))

('SO,... (!) ...') ... ... ...

(My 'task', then,... (after having 'encountered' this young man)... was to 'come up with' a ('catchy' (-'enough' (to 'pique the interest' of this 'sparkling' young 'talent'))) film-short, introductory PROGRAM-title... (: something 'one' would 'think' (--and, I would HOPE--) he "COULDN'T RESIST"...),... and have it --"fully-'hatched' (and 'ready' and 'waiting-for-him')"--... --by the time he got back HOME. (i.e., in the (--from THAT time--) next "TWO WEEKS".)

________________

(--What I 'came up with' was THIS:)

(The 'Anybodies' are all (of course) 'out there' --the 'immediate' 'need', and therefore, "goal", is 'only' to (--electronically (via the Internet)--) 'UNITE' them. How? --Ask 'em to do something "ALL" of 'em "WILL" "do". (--IF they (will) wish to (continue to) "be identified as" "FOLLOWERS of CHRIST". What's THAT? --STAND for Him. --Take a stand for Him. --One that ALL the WORLD can then, and WILL then, "SEE". Such as how? (--"Simple".) --'Such as'... SIGN their NAMES. (And then have those names published on the 'Net... "for all to see".) ('Like',... "comin' out o' 'the closet'"... (--'sort o' thing').))

(--NOBODY will be 'DRAGGED' into participation. --And, THAT's how we (--and, indeed, "all the world" (too)--) will "know": --We'll "set a time-limit" for their "making up (of) their minds": if the 'can' decide within the time limit, they're 'in'; if they can't (and DON'T) 'make up their minds' within the ('specified') time limit, they're 'out'. --Simple as that. What's the 'thing' (asked) to be "'stood'-for"? (--Something 'simple'(:). (--But,... PROFOUNDLY 'MIGHTY':)) --That JESUS is LORD; The Light of the World; and that ('WE' now 'stand' and 'SAY' that) "NOW" is OUR time... for HIS "Time" --"The Time of LIGHT"-- to "BE".)

(How much time'll they 'get' "to 'DECIDE'"? --A MINUTE and a HALF.
--NINETY... SECONDS.)

(--And then what? --And, 'THEN', 'we''ll 'put all the "90-seconds-or 'LESS-ers'"... into a great-big, electronic 'POT'... (--AS A UNITED BODY (--'at LAST'(!)--),... and 'look around'... to 'find' "the NEXT 'INTERESTING' (--i.e., "GLOBALLY SPIRITUALLY 'ADVANCING'"--) 'QUESTION'"... TO... "'UNITE' them OVER". (--"To the glory of God").)

(--'And, so-on and so-on.')

___________________

(But, the FIRST "stance for "The Light of the World'"... will be "the 'TELLING' one".)

___________________

(And, then (--'to make it fun'--), 'we''ll "set a 'DEADLINE'"... for all to "have 'STOOD'" (who are "GOING to 'stand'")... all over the world. What'll be "the deadline"? THREE MONTHS. --90 DAYS.)
___________________

(Will it be wonderFUL? --Yes. --What's the noun (-form) for (of) the adjective, "wonderful"? (--Right:) A "WONDER".)

What will it (the accomplishment of 'all this') "BE", then? (--Right:) --It'll be/have been... a "WONDER". --Of What/or Whom? --Of "God".

(I'tll be ('have been') "The 90-Day, 90-'Second', (-'UNITING',--) WORLDWIDE 'WONDER' of GOD".)

('Flash!'... --'Breaking News!')

"--We interrupt (the (formerly-anticipated) 'roll-out' of) this web log...
in order to bring you this (--'important bulletin' of--) 'breaking news!'..."


(From: Seat-of-Protestantism Prague (--Bohemia, Czech Republic):)

--For YEARS having been 'DESPERATE' to, in order to 'reach' the (comparative) FEW already 'blessed with' 'ears' to 'receive' it, get 'word' of this 'ministry' spread (--electronically--) WORLDWIDE, 'one' may 'imagine' my surprise, then, when, in the middle of (wide-open) Old Town Square, about three weeks ago, a young FILM-student from the FILM and DIGITAL MEDIA department(s) of the LARGEST Baptist university in the United States of America (--Baylor University, in Waco, Texas--)... stepped up to me --"out of the BLUE"-- and said he wanted to ask me some QUESTIONS..."about Christianity"(!). (Immediately (of course), I thought (-prayed), "--LORD,... --Is this" (young man's coming to me) "from YOU?"

Now, as it happened,... 'it would appear that' 'the interview' didn't go quite the way the young man had planned; as, it seemed that I ended up asking HIM more questions that he asked ME. Why? Because, before I'd be (have been) able to intelligently, MEANINGFULLY answer his QUESTIONS, I ('d) needed to know (at least 'approximately') whether or not he'd ('be able to') UNDERSTAND (the SIGNIFICANCE of) the (whatever) ANSWERS I'd give (have given) him.

I asked him where he was FROM; he'd said, "DALLAS". So, I'd asked him if he knew where PILOT POINT, Texas was. He said, "No." (Pilot Point, Texas is the founding city/town of the (holiness-doctrine) Church of the Nazarene. (AND, the (also-preacher) BROTHER of (famed Dallas Baptist preacher) GEORGE W. Truett (after whom the SEMINARY 'attached to' this young man's university is NAMED) was (for many years) pastor of the Baptist Church there...)) (So, I'd been 'doubly hopeful'... (But, 'drew a blank' on BOTH accounts. (As, it was clear he knew nothing of these things.))

(So, 'o.k.',... --'got nowhere with THAT 'stab'.) So, I then asked him a 'broader', (more) 'general', spiritual-DEVELOPMENT (-related), Protestant-doctrine question: Did he know who GEERT GROOTE was? "--No." (Geert Groote was the 'spiritual father' of the "DEVOTIO MODERNA", and founder of the Brethren of the Common Life (--with whose members Martin LUTHER studied for a YEAR (--in Magdeburg)).) (But, "No",... --he didn't know him, either.)

So, THEN, I thought: "--'O.K.',... --'piece-o'-cake', "EASY 'one'":--... and (pointing to the massive statue of, and monument to, Jan HUS that dominates the square in the middle of which we were then standing, I asked him: "--Do you know who THAT" (--Jan HUS--) "was?" (--He glanced at the statue, then back to me,... and said,... (--of course, entirely HONESTLY (but, having (seemingly) NO IDEA 'whatsoever' of how ignorant it... 'made him look',--))... (--he (had then) said:)... "--No."

(So,... 'there' I 'had it'. (:'The results' of MY 'interview'. (:--He 'wouldn't have understood ('much of') anything'.))) So, I'd then told him the reason (so-called) "Christians" had/have "no POWER (of God))" was/is because they think that their just attending CHURCH is "enough" for God. --'Enough' to 'SATISFY' Him. (So ('of course'), they (think they) 'need do
no more'. (And then, saying to him that it's "NOT 'ENOUGH'".)) And, then I 'preached' him a little 'sermon' on personal HOLINESS, telling him how if he wanted his films (' content) to 'reach' people in ways, and to 'depths' that will "CHANGE THEIR LIVES", he'd have to "become 'another man'". --He'd have to become HOLY.)

So, I then asked him how long (it'd be) before he'd be back home: --he said, "Two weeks."; we exchanged email addresses,... and,... he 'had to go'. (--This was all (now) three weeks ago.)

(Now, all this while we talked, I was (had been) 'listening' for 'something' --'ANYTHING'-- "from the Lord"... --But 'got' nothing. EVEN SO, (--I'd thought:--) "But,... --'WAITAMINNIT!'--... it shouldn't MATTER whether or not this (our) meeting was "OF THE LORD"... --more than "NORMAL"(!). --He'd said he was a "CHRISTIAN" (--though not a Catholic--)... --THAT should be "ENOUGH"? --Shouldn't it? (--Of COURSE it "should be". (And (--in the Lord's 'Sight'(?)--) "IS". (--'Wouldn't you say?'))))
