Confucius ( 1 Corinthians 2 v 18 - 25 )

 The word of God tells us we are all sinners, that is serious,because any sin,makes it impossible for us to have a relationship with God who is holy. That means we cannot enter heaven,but we will go to Hell,serious stuff,we have to say it the way it is,no fudging ,no ducking the issue,it is the biggest challenge that mankind has to face.But what if we were to get all the brainiest  people in the world  and  lock them in a room and ask them to solve this problem,no matter how long it takes.But alas they would not be able to solve that problem ,even if Einstein was one of those brainy people.Do world religions have the answer? A Chinese Christian leader,C.K.Lee spoke to an American audience and afterwords invited questions. A student asked this question,'Why should we should we send Christianity to China when it has Confucianism?Mr  Lee replied;'There are three reasons. , First of all, Confucius was a teacher and Christ is a Saviour. China needs a Saviour more than she needs teacher. In the second place, Confucius is dead and Christ is alive China needs a living Saviour. In the third place, Confucius is one day going to stand before Christ and be judged by Him.China needs to know to know Christ as Saviour before she meets Him as Judge''What applies to China applies to every human being,yes even you.
