Dear John,

I hope it is not a good bye. I have been continiously thinking about you all this day

Now, I think that when we have the backing of our church and we go forth to save souls, we may still be in our Comfort Zone. It is when we are alone and the call comes to go forth that we don’t have the Comfort Zone.. We are very lonely at this point. Ridicule and not support can be expected from all.

Don’t you find it strange that Thomas the Apostle said to the other disciples ‘…let us go and die with him (Yeshua)….’ but later after the ascension we read in the Acts of Thomas that he told Yeshua ‘Do not sent me to the Indians, sent me anywhere but not to the Indians……’

Regarding the reverene for the saints, I am not much interested in it because I do not want this to be a wedge between me and the Jacobites/Catholics. Every Marthomite has a Jacobite or Orthodox related to him very closely. Either as first cousin or sister’s husband or neice or nephew etc.. So it is absurd to say anything in black and white. It is like the pot calling the kettle black.

We Nasranis should not have any political aims but must come under one spiritual umbrella. God has kept us reasonaly intact for a purpose. If there was no purpose then the word ‘Nasrani’ would not have popped up again after centuries of silence.
