Fire in our hearts - The Jesus Army

FIRE IN OUR HEARTSAWAKE O ZION!‘Now, my brethren,’ said Noel, putting down the book andlooking intently at us, ‘this is not an easy road. But Jesus trodit and we must follow him. We Christians must become a forcedeclaring something new. Remember, when Luther stood upfor truth, it was as if he got hold of a rope connected to agreat bell that rang all over Europe. Beloved, our nation isripe for a radical demonstration of Christianity. Only that willsave the day.‘We are to forge a holy Christian culture such as is rarelyseen. Our worldliness is against it, and our flesh will screamin pain. Are we willing to be such a third race? Or would werather stay in the establishment? People’s minds have beenso brainwashed today that they think the way British societyruns is somehow righteous. Do you really think it was ordainedin heaven? What utter nonsense! Are we then goingto be trapped by the greedy urges of society? No!‘Now the Hebrews have a word shalom, which means peace,harmony and completeness. It is such an atmosphere of fulfilmentand simplicity that we desire to create.‘Let me quote an Anglican bishop. “We need a new kind ofmonastic movement,” says John Taylor, “to include simplicity,non-violence, and community.” 38‘You see we are going to refuse the world’s pressure! Weare getting off the treadmill. We are regaining our creativity.The drives of materialism are moving against human fulfilment.All kinds of things are taken for granted that are dehumanisingman. I hate it! We must say “enough is enough”! Wepursue this old way no further.133
