Lee Wei Ling's Beautiful Easter Story

Lee Wei Ling has shared with ST readers a beautiful Atheist Easter story today. God is patient with atheists but even more with professing Christians. That's why it is so important for believers not to judge others. You don't even need to love others if you only know not to judge them because you would already have fallen into Love's trap. Now I am still wondering after more than five years why she said to me, "Judge not less ye be judged". I never asked her the reason, I just chose to give her the benefit of the doubt. If I was wrong I learn, if not time will tell. Long ago, God had used her to teach me patience and then love. Sadly as someone who had been part of it, I was not successful at passing on this gift to her. Surely she had as much privilege and right as I had to receive it. Well that is how God works. Nothing new, he is doing it with his people, the Jews too. There is hope for atheists and everybody.


When you grow up from Romans 8 you will get to Romans 9 never mind if most believers chose to be stuck in chapter 8. God is as patient and long suffering as the story of the Prodigal Son. Now back to Romans 9.

With Christ as my witness, I speak with utter truthfulness. My conscience and the Holy Spirit confirm it. My heart is filled with bitter sorrow and unending grief for my people, my Jewish brothers and sisters.[a] I would be willing to be forever cursed—cut off from Christ!—if that would save them. They are the people of Israel, chosen to be God’s adopted children.[b] God revealed his glory to them. He made covenants with them and gave them his law. He gave them the privilege of worshiping him and receiving his wonderful promises.

  1. It is always a marvel to realise that God often sends a most unlikely messenger to deliver His Love. Too often and I noticed very sadly even among some of my good friends who claim to be members of some Christian church, that they display so little understanding or tolerance of people practising other faith or denomination or are just plain atheistic or agnostic. Every encounter with another person or event is destined and God is always trying to tell us something in the process. So if we shut ourselves - especially our hearts, how can we discover more about the mystery of our own existence and have an eocunter with the Higher Being?

  2. Almighty God Allah is the only one who can judge,once Gods makes the judgement,all human beings must follow,the question is whether we are following Almighty God's judgement or are we searching hard enough in this Age of the Kingdom at the end time ?the Age of the Grace (that is, the Age of the Redemption)is well over!
