Extreme

26th July--Thought 4 the Week:

“You want extreme? No one in history ever was born like Jesus, lived like Jesus, talked like Jesus and loved like Jesus. Not even His enemies could find fault with Him. He defies comparison, because there is nobody else you can put in His class. Period. He split history in half. He not only claimed to be God, but showed His kingdom every way you can ask to anyone who really wanted to see it. When you come to Jesus, He doesn’t give you options or alternatives, just a core decision: ‘Follow Me.’ If you do, you are a disciple. If you don’t, you drop off the map forever. And that, my friend, is extreme.” (Excerpt from “Fire on the Horizon” by Winkie Pratney)
