Agreed. But careful not to put pastors on a pedestal. It’s God in him you appreciate and love. John MacArthur, like us, is a wretch who will die because his sins are great, and he would be the first to tell you this is so, and to glorify God, and not himself.

There are multiple festivals every single day of the year. 21) You are a working person. Don't have time for religion. Its okay. You will still be a Hindu. 22) You like to go to temples. Devotion is loved. 23) You don't like to go to temples - no problem.

So you worship your mother, father, guru, tree, River, Prani-matra, Earth, Universe! 26) And If you don't believe that everything has GOD in it - No problems. Respect your viewpoint. 27) "Sarve jana sukhino bhavantu " (May you all live happily) You represent this! You're free to choose, my dear Hindu! This is exactly the essence of Hinduism, all inclusive .. That is why it has withstood the test of time inspite of repeated onslaught both from within and outside, and assimilated every good aspects from everything That is why it is eternal !!!

He is truly a blessing to our household, he is a tool used by God.💜🙏✝️

Doesn’t seem so when a pastor praises God, but the saints only seem to praise the pastor.
Thank you for sharing this!
GLORY TO GOD!
Please pray for the Christians massacred in Nigeria, for all underground churches, and God bless this man of God... 🙏amen
Maranatha Yeshua ✝️
