The Gandhi movie and India.......

i have not been to a movie theater for more than 30 years, and i can't remember the last time i watched a dvd movie, however two days ago i was pricked in my heart to begin viewing the dvd movie "Gandhi" after i saw such lying on a table at a library .

And yesterday i cried, heart wrenching tears, sobbing as India did.......

And today my heart yet aches evermore when i consider that one of many warnings Mahatma Gandhi sounded has been ignored!

“GOD forbid that India should ever take to industrialism after the manner of the west... keeping the world in chains. If our nation took to similar economic exploitation, it would strip the world bare like locusts”.......

It needs be REALized by the few who yet have "eyes that see", that "whoever would be a friend of this world is the enemy of Our FATHER and GOD"! (James 4:1-4)

A response to a youth in India.......

i appreciate your message, yet that which is needful, Mahatma Gandhi bore witness of, not just with words or activism, but in his latter years with his life!

"A Simple and Spiritual Life"!

And that which caused him concern has not only come upon India but the whole of this evil world! (John 7:7, I John 5:19)

For he testified, "GOD forbid that India should ever take to industrialism after the manner of the west... keeping the world in chains. If India took to similar economic exploitation, it would strip the world bare like locusts”.......

And not only India but China and the whole world is following that "broad way to destruction"! (Matthew 7:13)

Why?

Mahatma Gandhi testified, "Let no one say that he is a follower of Gandhi"!

Mahatma Gandhi testified, "Let no one say that he is a follower of Gandhi. It is enough that I should be my own follower. I know what an inadequate follower I am of myself, for I can't live up to the convictions I stand for."

Thankfully in his latter years i believe Mahatma Gandhi sought and desired to follow The Messiah on "The Way to The TRUTH of The Life"! (John 14:6)

And he testified, "My life is my message".......

Life IS! For those who have seen how "poor and in need" of Our FATHER and GOD they truly are! (Psalms 70:5; 72:13, John 5:19,30; 8:8-29)

Mahatma Gandhi REALized such when he testified, "I have been a willing slave to this most exacting MASTER (WHOM i believe was Our FATHER and GOD) for more then half a century. HIS Voice has been increasingly audible as years have rolled by. HE has never forsaken me even in my darkest hour. HE has saved me often from myself and left me not a vestige of independence. The greater the surrender to HIM, the greater has been my Joy".
