The Church


There was this Church which was strong in faith and doctrine, always believed in ministering the word of God. The pastor was a man of influence and intellect and so was the congregation. Technically, they did everything what they thought was right to run a powerful Church and congregation.

In this Church, there was a Church member who was not too popular with the congregation and always stirred some controversy. The pastor and congregation got so fed up with this man that they told him to get out of the Church and leave the congregation alone.

This man was heart broken and tried on several other occassions to enter the Church but was stopped by the deacons to do so. He would cry throughout the week and on every Sunday, used to go and sit outside his beloved Church hoping to get a glimpse of what was happening behind the closed doors. He used to sit outside crying and praying every Sunday when one Sunday he saw an old man passing by.

Instantly he recognised this man who used to come to this Church some 15 years ago, sit outside and leave, once the service got over. Immediately, this ostracized church member went running after this old man, crying and sobbing. When he approached this old man he said "See sir, what has my Church done, they do not allow me to come IN", listening to this the old man said "Son, you are talking about yourself? they don't even allow ME, to come in, and I am Christ". As soon as the old man said this he disappeared.
