Occasional Musings of an Old Christian Man

Jesus Sticker

As A Brand New Christian, I put a “Jesus Lives!” Rainbow-sticker on the back window of my old hotted-up Kombi.

I was perturbed when ‘older’ Christians gave me advice.

One said, “you shouldn’t put that on your window, because when you drive badly you’ll give Jesus a bad name”. To this I replied: “Perhaps I can just not drive badly?”.

The other ‘wise’ advisor said, “I shouldn’t have a rainbow on my van because the rainbow was a symbol of the homosexual community”. To this I replied: “isn’t the rainbow, first of all, a sign of God’s promise?”

How easy is it to bow to the fallen world rather than simply live a Christian life amongst the mess?

I’m a happily married, father of eight, who was confident that I “knew it all” until Jesus broke into my life in 1983 and showed to me, my great need for His sovereignty to prevail.

About Me

I’m a ‘sort-of’ retired person who is a follower of Jesus. I don’t like brands and titles because they have varied meanings to different observers. I like to talk about the Good News of Jesus, and the Bible’s story of redemption.
