The Feast of the Trumpets Continued.

Numbers 29:17-19 

Twelve bullocks, fourteen rams, fourteen lambs, and one kid of goats were offered. May we realize today that God does not want rams, goats, bullocks or lambs as a sacrifice, but He wants our bodies as a living sacrifice. Read Romans 12:1 today. 

1869 - Birthday of Mohandas Ghandi. 

Mohandas Ghandi, often called Mahatma Gandhi, was the leader of millions of people. He perhaps influenced as many people in his day as any man alive. He made this statement during his latter years: "I would be a Christian if it were not for Christians." In other words, the poor testimony that Christians offered kept him from being converted. 

This reminds us of II Corinthians 4:3, "But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost." What a tragic thing it is when our lives, testimonies, and influence are not for the best and we keep people from becoming Christians. Think of it, if Mohandas Ghandi had seen Christ in Christians, he himself would have turned to Christ and no doubt millions and millions and hundreds of millions would have followed his example. Let us pray today that God will help us to live the kind of "life that will benefit the cause of Christ and turn folks to the Saviour rather than away from Him.
