Christian! Your Job Description! 1 Corinthians 1:27

“But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty.” Commentary: I graduated last in my high school class in 1967! I earned it and deserved it but I had fun! I was voted by my classmates most likely not to succeed! They had my back! I had physical challenges! Then in 1973 everything changed! I was on my death bed! Really I was excited about it for I thought if there really is a God I will find out tonight! I will find out if this Bible is really true or not? Under the shadow of death Christ entered into my room that night! His light pushed away the darkness and raised me from the dead! He rescued me from myself! I did not deserve it but he came! After this experience all my devotion turned to Christ! I could never repay him but I was going to give him all my devotion both then, now and forever! I came under the authority of some good Pastors! For the next 10 years I went to the down and out into prisons, half way houses and bums on skid row sharing the love of Jesus with them! I told them that if you are a nobody God will make you a somebody! In November of 1983 I found myself in Seoul, South Korea preaching a sermon from the pulpit of the world’s largest church pastored by Cho! I had never preached a sermon from a pulpit before and had no theology degree! Pastor Cho had seven services on Sunday because of the size of the congregation about 500 thousand members then! Now today it is over a million members! I took the 6th service that Sunday in November. Some of the other speakers were Pat Robertson, Marlyn Hickey, Tony Evans and I cannot remember the other names! So when Pastor Cho introduced me to the tens of thousands of members in the audience they had a puzzled look on their faces? Me not know James Sasse? Never heard of him? How he get here? They were perplexed? But Cho had chosen us so everything is all right! When Jesus chooses you it does not matter what people say! You see I was confounding the wise! I was confounding the mighty! We went on to India as missionaries for the next 3 years under Pastor Cho’s commissioning serve there in Korea! A thirty foot wave coming in from the ocean to the beach is strong and powerful! When you get on top of that wave on a surf board you are using the power of that wave to propel you along even thou you are a million times weaker than the power of that wave! You are weak yet confounding the mighty strength of that wave for your benefit! Submit to God’s power and strength and he through you will confound the wise and the mighty! James & Hamsa Sasse.
