Comment on Good Friday – 2012 by Jim Carr

Doug, I feel so unworthy that our beloved Father has given me such a friend as you. I listened to you at the Samaratin dinner last Thurs. You so kindly and generously included my name in the company of Courtney Wilson, Ben Alexander and Bill Bevington.

That so humbled me because I am absolutely convinced that those three followers of Jesus Christ are in a league so far above this very humble servant. That having been said, Thank you, for mentioning my name. As usual, you were too kind.

Doug, once again your insight has been an inspiration to this man. No telling how many others your words are bringing to a unique understanding of our all-loving Father. His love for us undeserving servants is truly incomprehensible is it not? Thank you , and may you as well as all your loved ones have a most blessed Easter.

Sorry to hear about your loss. Sounds like a great young man. May the world know that , “…God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him” (John 3:17). This world needs the good news – gospel of Jesus Christ.

Jesus is all we need. “His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness” (2 Peter 1:3).

Very well expressed Doug and my fellow pastoral collegues.

I wish to add my endorsement to your censure of these hate-filled positions and actions.

Thanks once again Doug for sharing your insights. As usual your thoughts are an inspiration to me at the end of this 30th day of December, 2010. May the good God bless you and your loved ones this evening and throughout the new year.
Your good friend, Jim

Thanks, Doug. We can have victory because “…the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world” (1 John 4:4). Praise God!

Doug, ma man ! For someone whom I’ve always considered as being holy (yes, accept it brother. That’s always been my impression of you), to read of your “small minded” excursion is so refreshing and encouraging to me. Why ? Because I too have, from time to time, those same “less than holy” ruminations.

I am now, a little better able to accept myself as the imperfect, broken, and yet noble “son of God” that I know by faith that I am, and that I know you are.
Thank you soooo much Doug Varnado, For being so REAL. For, is being REAL not being TRUE ? And is being TRUE not being Christ-like, He who is TRUTH itself ?

May God bless you my brother. You are continually a blessing to me.

Jim
