And that realization really gets ME going sometimes. If it had not been for the degree of hope extended to mankind in the gospel, mankind would never have gotten off the ground far enough to see what we called the Industrial Revolution. People sometimes talk like the kind of hope and vision required just grew on trees everywhere, and it can get pretty silly when atheists do it. Every grocery store with its proliferation of goods is a testimony to Jesus and we had better believe it, if we want to really give Him the proper place in our hearts and lives.

Christ was/is passionate - I think He expects us to be so also. He has provided us with all that is worth living and dying for and we owe it to Him to carry His Word as passionately as the Evil One pushes to deligitimize Him.
