NKF Controversy

Guess enough has been said about the misappropriateness of funds in the local media... one thing that strikes me however is the fact that many people continue to believe that "the ends justfifies the means" and yet continue to slam Mr Durai for doing so. In other words, what NKF is saying is that "since we helped raised lots of money and we are saving lives", therefore, we have achieved the bottomline, and therefore the rest is secondary. In fact, seems that a certain Mrs Goh also endorses that view.

The point that I want to make here is that "the ends DO NOT justify the means"...and that applies to our faith as well, especially in a postmodern age when the church preaches "relevancy" and "trying to reach out to as many people as possible".

Just because our anthropocentric methods of evangelism garner results (and thus leading more people to Christ) does not mean that we are on the right track to revival.

Even though God may use those who "preach Christ out of selfish ambitions... (or out of) false motives" to expand his Kingdom, it does not excuse us from our responsibilities.

Let us hope the Church will be enlightened on this point - sooner than later.
