Rebuild the Walls of the Entertainment World (Joe)
Alternatives (Bernard Soh)
To entertain or to evangelise? (Ivan)

At the end of times, many will turn away from the fundamentals of the teaching of Christ and turns towards the world. With the leaps and bounce in science and technologies, human has now more time and resources to look elsewhere to fulfil the desires of their heart. Multimedia has never been a forte of the spreading of the Gospel, however it is still a good medium for use to break into hard grounds, especially that of the dialect-speaking people. As for the illusion performances, to me it is just pure entertainment and serves no purpose in advancing the Gospel of Christ. Desolated people are drawn by Christ for the fact that there is physical and spiritual healing of the mind and body. You get nothing out from seeing a person pull a rabbit out of a hat if you are suffering from cancer and needed healing. Nevertheless, when you have a lamb that has lost his way, are you going to leave the 99 still with you and go for the lost one? I always believe that Jesus will and we should too. Forgiveness is always better than condemnation. Mercy is what God desire, not our sacrifices. If our prayers and supplication could aid a brother to turn around, I believe Father would be very please. And if Father decided to throw a feast for the return of our lost brother, would you join in the celebration?
MK 9:49 Everyone will be salted with fire.
