Internet Fire by Alice Spicer
I believe we are living in an extraordinary time in the history of the Church—a time as revolutionary as that of the New Testament age and of Martin Luther. In New Testament times the Greek language had become an international language over a vast geographical area surrounding the Mediterranean world. This made it possible for the Gospel to spread over land and sea to peoples of many cultures. In Luther’s time it was the printing press enabling his passionate teachings to spread across Germany. He won the hearts of the people and turned the tide of the Church’s power in controlling the masses. The rest is history. And today the internet is doing the same thing, but taken it to an unlimited and global extent. We have a God-given mandate to explore, research, and yes, think and judge for ourselves what is right and true. (Luke 12:57; 1Cor 10:15; 1 Thes 5:21).
Please pray for the GOOD NEWS of God’s unfailing, unending love for all to spread across the internet and (thus the world) like a wild fire!
