K.P. Yohannan (Living in the Light of Eternity: Discovering God's Design for Your Life)

Never trust a man who laughs after each occasion he has spoken. He is sure to have some scheme afoot.
Shane K.P. O'Neill
Romance is not the giving of flowers, or any other gift. It is a way of life, a way of being. Romance is every thought, gesture, and deed on your part to make another feel special, even if only for a moment. For a moment can last a lifetime in the heart of the recipient, be that the one you love, or a complete stranger.
Shane K.P. O'Neill
Any time I sit down at my laptop to write and I'm feeling lazy, or that I can't be bothered, or if I'm generally just lacking inspiration, I sit there and remember life with my ex-wife, and the words flow from my fingertips.
Shane K.P. O'Neill
Beginning to sense his call to preach boldly in dangerous situations even though he was young and slight, the author agreed to go only if God would give him a particular sense of His presence. The next morning, the author says it was as if God took out his human eyes and replaced them with God's own because he saw other people so much more vividly.

One aspect of the human condition that never ceases to amaze me, is the frequency with which love can turn to hate. But then, a broken heart no longer possesses a penchant for love.
Shane K.P. O'Neill
The act of trusting your heart to another is a leap of faith. You can never know if your love shall last forever, or if the other might crush your heart to dust. It is a risk, the biggest you shall ever undertake. All you can do is take it one day at a time, but never take it for granted.
Shane K.P. O'Neill
Be true to yourself always, and remain the master of your own destiny. Should you place your heart, or your hopes and dreams, in the hands of another, then you allow that person the power to crush them. When all is said and done, the only one you can truly depend on, for anything, is you.
Shane K.P. O'Neill
I'm not into caps with lots of diamonds on them, like KP.

Submitting to history allows us to remember our society’s past. Although writing and art express history, it's our humanity which keeps all of us striving for an improved future.
K.P. Kollenborn
He knew what he had found here, a precious treasure that had remained hidden away for so long. To the right man, she could give more happiness and fulfilment than any amount of gold, or gems. Just by holding her in his arms, he knew this. He had the key to her heart in his hands. All he had to do was unlock her, and he would enjoy the most wondrous chest of delights. He knew it and he knew, too, that nothing would ever compensate him should he lose her.
Shane K.P. O'Neill (Bound By Blood: Volume 1 (Bound By Blood, #1) (The Dracula Chronicles, #6))
What will you do with your self? Many men and women are still in darkness, trying to figure out the meaning and purpose of life. But no matter what you try to do with your self— whether you deny it, obliterate it, annihilate it, accept it or express it—believe me, it is still alive and kicking.

Pimpin' ain't easy, but it's necessary, especially if you wanna fully utilize the power of your kitchen. You can't have your spatulas and whisks runnin' around like they own the place. Having the right utensils is a good start, but then you gotta show them who's the boss up in this bitch. In this chapter, I'm gonna tell you what you need to get started, what you don't need, and how to know if you're ready to become a full-fledged KP.
Coolio (Cookin' with Coolio: 5 Star Meals at a 1 Star Price)
Yet so often it seems that victory eludes us. It is when our self-confidence is finally destroyed and is replaced with dependence upon God that we have victory.
K.P. Yohannan (When We Have Failed-What Next?: God's Answer to Our Failures)
God's word tells us that righteousness is a gift; it cannot be earned. But godliness is not a gift. We must pay a price to touch godliness through a daily decision to die to self and embrace the cross. God calls us to learn godliness in the classroom of life among people as we sit on airplanes and buses, walk among our neighbors and labor at our factories or desks.
K.P. Yohannan (Touching Godliness)
Lift the breasts high, but not so high that they tower over the men. They do not like it if a woman is taller than them. So shrink. Be young. Never ever grow old. Don't live, don't breed without permission, but always give pleasure.

The secret to following God's will, I discovered, usually is wrapped up in rejecting the good for God's best.

We could begin to allow the history of science to curb scientific awe by imposing a rating system, like those used with movies and television. Any scientific claim that lasts longer than a millennium, we'll rate "GC" for "Getting Close." For claims that stand for five hundred years, we'll rate "KP," for "Kinda Probable;" for a century, "PF" for Probably False;" for fifty years, "ACF" for "Almost Certainly False;" for twenty years and less, "TLA," for "Treat Like Astrology.

I thought creators were supposed to tell their younglings they were special. I didn’t know mine meant something more when she told me. I could’ve never known what she’d seen in the water. My future was a secret she kept bound up inside her.
K.P. Ambroziak (El and Onine)
With all the decision making in my life, I often have to pause, look up and remember God is the One working behind the scenes. I say to myself, “He is able to work all things out for good. I just need to submit to Him and His ways. I can rest.
K.P. Yohannan (The Beauty of Christ through Brokenness)
The High Cost of Servanthood Jesus warned, however, that this life of servanthood is not lived without cost. He said, "The servant is not greater than his Lord" (John 13:16) and, if the persecuted and hated Him, we can expect no better treatment. In 2 Timothy 3:12 Paul wrote, " All that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persectution," so this is also the cost we as servants must be willing to pay. This is so difficult for us to accept in our world of man-pleasing, "I'm OK, you're OK" Christianity. No one wants to be disliked, hated or misunderstood---especially by family, friends and loved ones. But this of often exactly the price to be paid by anyone seriously wanting to follow Jesus into a life of servanthood.
K.P. Yohannan (The Road to Reality: Coming Home to Jesus from the Unreal World)
Abortion is one of the most shocking, yet entirely logical, extensions of this obsession with comfort, convenience and luxury. Less dramatic, but just as deadly to millions of lost souls in our world, is our unwillingness to make even small sacrifices to reach them with the Gospel.
K.P. Yohannan (The Road to Reality: Coming Home to Jesus from the Unreal World)
She waited barefoot beneath the great reflector for the Kyprian to come and take her to the outer sands. She didn’t scream when they came, she didn’t cry, she simply faded away in silence. I woke to the eye shining through the lattice of my shanty. I could hear Bendo gnawing on the blades of grass outside. Minosh had told me she was sure many more species existed before the Kyprian arrived but only a few survived the induction of gold.
K.P. Ambroziak (El and Onine)
When our flesh stops trying, when it is thoroughly crushed and broken, His purposes for our lives are unhindered, and we bring true glory to His name. First Peter 2:23 (NIV) tells us, “When they hurled their insults at [Jesus], he did not retaliate; when he suffered, he made no threats. Instead, he entrusted himself to him who judges justly.
K.P. Yohannan (The Beauty of Christ through Brokenness)
Americans are more than aware of their affluence- they almost seem to despise it at times.

Part of the sin of Pride is a subtle but deep racism.

Not one was willing to break out of that velvet cage of comfort and convenience to begin a radical lifestyle lived from an inner reality
K.P. Yohannan (The Road to Reality: Coming Home to Jesus from the Unreal World)
No matter what Jesus faced, He lived by what He knew about Himself, not by what others thought or said about Him.
K.P. Yohannan (Destined to Soar)
Murdering each other in the name of God. It is indeed the greatest of all ironies and one that aids my cause. Long may it continue.
Shane K.P. O'Neill (The Dracula Chronicles: For Whom The Bell Tolls)
When we are broken like Jesus, we are able to forgive people, truly forgive them, and desire no revenge. A good example of this is found in the life of Joseph. When his brothers came to him desperate in the time of famine, he had every reason to turn them away and let them die. But he didn’t. He said, “My brothers, don’t be afraid, the Lord sent me here for you” (see Genesis 45:5).
K.P. Yohannan (The Beauty of Christ through Brokenness)
The trick to running a successful humanitarian operation is to appear to be constantly alleviating poverty without solving any of its underlying causes and ensuring that no one else does either.
Eli K.P. William (The Naked World (Jubilee Cycle #2))
To look into the sad eyes of a hungry child or see the wasted life of a drug addict is to see only the evidence of Satan's hold on this world. All bad things, whether in Asia or America, are his handiwork.
K.P. Yohannan (Revolution In World Missions)
Girls have poisoned themselves in the pursuit of beauty, drowned in the need for perfection. Just to obtain some worth, because even a little worth is everything. It happened and it will happen again and again.
Kristy Park Kulski (Fairest Flesh)
I’d like to call him Bitner,” she said, as though she’d contemplated it long and hard. “Bitner?” “I read it in one of your books.” She continued to gaze at our son, her cheeks reddening with her angst. She’d already anticipated my departure. “He’ll grow up to be wise like his father, and loyal like his kin.” “I love it. Bitner Bijarnarson.” I stepped forward, admiring the first boy born to us. I wondered if there’d be another. Netta
K.P. Ambroziak (Grief For Heart (Vincent du Maurier #4))
.....I felt other Christian charities and ministries of compassion were wrong in showing the love of Christ. No, many were doing a wonderful job. But I felt the local church should be the center for outreach, and we needed to bring the balance back.
K.P. Yohannan (Revolution In World Missions)
When we learn to run to it and embrace it, when we can plan habitually to go without things for Christ’s sake, then we’ve begun to live the life of reasonable service: “I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service” (Romans 12:1).
K.P. Yohannan (The Road to Reality: Coming Home to Jesus from the Unreal World)
Real Christians accept suffering as a normal part of following Christ, just as mothers accept labor as a normal part of delivering a baby. “No pain, no gain” applies to world evangelism as well as exercise programs! Until we can accept suffering, sacrifice and self-denial as routine and normal, we will never see the Great Commission fulfilled in our generation.
K.P. Yohannan (The Road to Reality: Coming Home to Jesus from the Unreal World)
To expect to continue controlling the use of money and the ministry overseas from our foreign-based mission board is an extension of colonialism. It adds an unbiblical element, which only humiliates and weakens the national missionaries in the long run. Christians need to learn that they are not giving their money to national workers, but God's money to His work overseas.
K.P. Yohannan (Revolution In World Missions)
This book has pushed back against the randomness thesis, emphasizing instead the skill in venture capital. It has done so for four reasons. First, the existence of path dependency does not actually prove that skill is absent. Venture capitalists need skill to enter the game: as the authors of the NBER paper say, path dependency can only influence which among the many skilled players gets to be the winner. Nor is it clear that path dependency explains why some skilled operators beat other ones. The finding that a partnership’s future IPO rate rises by 1.6 percentage points is not particularly strong, and the history recounted in these pages shows that path dependency is frequently disrupted.[5] Despite his powerful reputation, Arthur Rock was unsuccessful after his Apple investment. Mayfield was a leading force during the 1980s; it too faded. Kleiner Perkins proves that you can dominate the Valley for a quarter of a century and then decline precipitously. Accel succeeded early, hit a rough patch, and then built itself back. In an effort to maintain its sense of paranoia and vigilance, Sequoia once produced a slide listing numerous venture partnerships that flourished and then failed. “The Departed,” it called them. The second reason to believe in skill lies in the origin story of some partnerships. Occasionally a newcomer breaks into the venture elite in such a way that skill obviously does matter. Kleiner Perkins became a leader in the business because of Tandem and Genentech. Both companies were hatched from within the KP office and actively shaped by Tom Perkins; there was nothing lucky about this. Tiger Global and Yuri Milner invented the art of late-stage venture capital. They had a genuinely novel approach to tech investing; they offered much more than the equivalent of another catchy tune competing against others. Paul Graham’s batch-processing method at Y Combinator offered an equally original approach to seed-stage investing. A clever innovation, not random fortune, explains Graham’s place in venture history.
Sebastian Mallaby (The Power Law: Venture Capital and the Making of the New Future)
A friend in Dallas recently pointed out a new church building that cost $74 million. While this thought was still exploding in my mind, he pointed out another $7 million church building going up less than a minute away. These extravagant buildings are insanity from a Two-Thirds World perspective. The $74 million spent on one new building in the United States could build more than 6,000 average-sized churches in India. The same $74 million would be enough to guarantee that the Good News of Jesus Christ could be proclaimed to a whole Indian state-or even some of the smaller countries of Asia.
K.P. Yohannan (Revolution In World Missions)
We celebrate the dedication of Olympic athletes who diet and train and exercise daily for years in order to prepare for the games. They give up not only physical comfort but also any hope of a normal social and family life. When police officers or firefighters die, often thousands turn out for their funerals. We honor our children who die in military service in much the same way—often arranging public ceremonies and holidays. We expect television celebrities such as actors, news correspondents and musicians to sacrifice any kind of normal life in order to entertain us around the clock—and they are paid millions of dollars to do so. The names of astronauts become household words because they risk their lives in order to forward the conquest of space. But the minute a Christian young person starts to fast and pray, consider the mission field or give up career or romance for Christ—concerned counselors, family and friends will spend hours trying to keep him or her from “going off the deep end on this religious stuff.” Even devout Christian parents will oppose Christian service when their own son or daughter is about to give up all for Christ. Discipline, pain, sacrifice and suffering are rewarded with fame and fortune in the world. Why then do we refuse to accept it as a normal part of giving spiritual birth in the kingdom of our Lord?
K.P. Yohannan (The Road to Reality: Coming Home to Jesus from the Unreal World)
But there is a dark and deadly side to this fascination with comfort and convenience. Among the developed nations, every 5 seconds the life of an unborn child is snuffed out through abortion.[1] The reason usually given? “We’re just not ready to have a baby now.” Translated into plain English, this means that having the baby would be too inconvenient. If a new human life should happen to get in the way of our career and income goals, school schedules or marriage plans, the first choice is ruthless and simple: kill it. Nothing is allowed to get in the way of feeling good. Abortion is one of the most shocking, yet entirely logical, extensions of this obsession with comfort, convenience and luxury.
K.P. Yohannan (The Road to Reality: Coming Home to Jesus from the Unreal World)
Die Kommunistische Partei bildet zusammen mit Tarabut-Hitchabrut und vielen "Unabhängigen" die "Front für Demokratie und Frieden" (Hadash). Der Knessetabgeordnete Dov Chinin (der Hadash vertritt und selber KP-Mitglied ist) entschied sich vor einem Jahr, der hebräischen Teil der KP zu einem Bündnis mit der zerstörten zionistischen Linken (Meretz) zu ziehen, was den Schulterschluss in dieser Protestbewegung jetzt ermöglichte von so vielen verschiedenen politischen Richtungen, also ein gemeinsames Marschieren von Sozialdemokraten (Meretz) und revolutionären Sozialisten (Hadash). Andererseits weiß die kommunistische Partei immer, was richtig ist, und wer anders denkt, ist ein Feind. Das ist die Politik aller Kommunistischen Partei seit eh und je. Als der Stalinismus sich festigte, wurde klar, dass jedeR Andersdenkende ein Faschist ist. Millionen wurden unter diesem Vorwand ermordet, in Russland, im spanischen Bürgerkrieg, und in vielen andern Ländern. Und das ist nicht nur Paranoja. Das Schlimmste daran ist, dass die meisten Leute die Ziele des Kommunismus mit diesem brutalen unmenschlichen Regime identifizieren. Und genau das geschieht jetzt gerade: Dov Chinins strategische Entscheidung entfernt die Kommunistische Partei und leider auch Hadash – obschon die beiden nicht identisch sind, aber auch das ist ein Prozess der negativen Identifizierung - von den Massen in den Entwicklungsstädten und den "geschwächten" Stadtvierteln, die zwar nie der Kommunistischen Partei nachrannten, mit denen Wir aber in den letzten drei Jahren sehr erfolgreiche Arbeit machten. Diese Bevölkerung interessiert weder die arabischen noch die hebräischen Kader der Kommunistischen Partei, weil sie seit dreissig Jahren Likud oder Schass oder Liebermann wählen. Diese hebräischen Kader nennen Wir "die Dov-Jungens". Wir wollen keinen Kontakt mit ihnen, aber einer dieser Dov-Jungens glaubt fälschlicherweise, dass Wir auf ihrer Seite sind. Er versucht, Uns zu überzeugen, dass diese ganze Initiative, die Peripherie demokratisch an der Führung teilhaben zu lassen, eigentlich ein faschistischer Putschversuch ist. Demokratie, ja, das ist gut für die Theorie, aber in der politischen Realität muss man den verblödeten Massen den Weg zeigen. Wir sind die Avandguarde, die die Macht ergreifen muss, das Volk wird danach schon früh genug verstehen, dass es richtig so war.

When an infant is designated as marketable, the algorithm immediately identifies the parents from the gene pool—with the exception of relatively rare cases in which the sire is bankliving. The precise moment the infant is accepted into the receptacle, they are both upgraded to gifters and entitled to a bonus for one year as a reward for gifting.

There will come a time when each of us and the ministry the Lord gave us to do on this earth will be tested by fire (see 1 Corinthians 3:13). Only that ministry which was done in His way will last. It does not matter what it may have looked like on this earth, it does not matter how well-known it may have been or how much fruit it may have seemed to produce. If it was not done as unto Him, it was not done in His way ... and it will not stand in eternity. My brothers
K.P. Yohannan (The Lord's Work Done in the Lord's Way)
I know for our ministry, the need is absolutely huge, mind-boggling. We need to get the Gospel to so many people before they die and are lost for eternity. So it is logical and reasonable to be absolutely committed and fully involved in doing everything we possibly can to reach the lost. But if we do this independent of Him, our love for and intimacy with the Lord begin to fade away and our ministry cannot be pleasing to Him, no matter what kind of fruit it is producing. As a ministry,

With politics almost exclusively funded by corporations, elections are dramatized proxy disputes between competing lobbies. Political positions disadvantageous to all, or at least most, industries are eliminated from public discourse by default, and only those legislations beneficial to some but not other industries are debated.

Posle 1948. godine mi smo vodili borbu uzbrdo gurajući kamen: otkačili smo se od Rusa, a Oktobarski model je sam nešto korigovan. Fijaker možeš da ofarbaš, ali od njega nikada ne može da postane automobil. Tako je i sa Oktobarskim modelom: nešto smo ga doterali, ali šta se može iz diktature KP učiniti? Kad smo ostali sami, bez tutora, nastavili smo da radimo ono što nas je tutor naučio. Mi nismo u bloku, ali smo objektivno parče toga bloka. Kao kada od lednika odlomite jedan komad leda: on više nije deo lednika, ali je led. Tako, nije reč samo o mafijaštvu na vlasti, nego smo ostali ono što smo bili na tom malom ostrvu.

just the thought of some temporary discomfort was enough to keep him from the spiritual adventure of a lifetime.

When we live in rebellion, He can't bless us as He would like.
K.P. Yohannan (Touching Godliness)
When we give away our rights and surrender our wills, when we give our obedience, our return is "good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over.
K.P. Yohannan (Touching Godliness)
submitting to authority is never for evil, but always for blessing.

Study Guide for Chapter 1 The Way to Freedom Overview Everything around us operates on the principle of submission, and to the extent that submission is heeded, to the same extent that way is prospered. Submission is a choice toward life. Adam chose death, and we are born into this curse. Submission to God includes submission to delegated authority.* It is out of God’s love for us that He asks us to submit. Authority is and flows from God Himself, and the principle of submission to authority is eternal, sacred and foundational.* Where is your heart? Are you fighting, or are you surrendered? Adam’s curse is broken as we surrender and choose the way of the cross as Christ did.* Just as Christ manifests absolute submission and surrender, Satan manifests absolute rebellion.* God created us to depend on Him, and only what is done in His Spirit will last. Through the mystery of submission to authority, God is restoring creation back to innocence. When we submit, we become part of that work.* * These topics are developed more fully in later chapters. Reflection and Action 1. Reflect on your day. Write down some of the many different ways you saw the principle of submission to authority at work in nature, in society and in your personal life. How might your day have been different if the response in each of those cases was defying submission? What was the result of submission in each of those cases? 2. Note each time that the words “choice” or “choose” were used in this chapter. What are we choosing between? And what is the outcome of the choices made? In the Garden of Eden, what did the two trees represent? What was God’s purpose in allowing Adam and Eve to choose between them? Can you recall an incident recently in which you were faced with the same kind of choice? How did you respond? 3. Prayerfully review all of the Scripture passages related to submission within the Trinity itself. How does this glimpse into the very heart of God change the way you think about submission? Meditate on Isaiah 43:10–11. How would you explain to someone else the concept of God and authority? Why is this principle so important and holy? 4. It can be painful to admit, even to ourselves, that we may imitate Lucifer, rather than Christ, in our attitude toward authority. However, by allowing God to reveal truth to us, we are taking our first steps toward godliness. With that perspective, review these questions from the text and ask the Lord to speak to you through them in any way He chooses. 5. What are the reasons why we find it difficult to submit to authority? And how is it possible for us to remain in rebellion for years after having received Jesus as our Savior? Write down specific times you can look back and see how you remained in rebellion. How would you want to handle those times now? 6. The author writes: “Nothing will remain in eternity that is not of the Spirit.” Explain what this means to you and how it applies to your own ministry. 7. What does God want to accomplish through giving us the freedom to choose submission? Write down any changes in your thoughts and attitude toward submission as you’ve studied this chapter. Close your time by thanking God for His kindness to open your eyes to the things He showed you through this chapter.

The magic is still here, you'll remember it soon enough.

As the IDPs poured into KP, other provinces were already shutting their borders to them. These proud tribals had sacrificed their homes for the peace and prosperity of the nation, and no one wanted to help rehouse them. At the start of the operation, no one had even arranged drinking water for these displaced people. I tweeted about it and Nestle immediately responded by delivering thirty-eight tons of water to the main relief camp in Bannu Sports Complex, which they would then continue to do every week. But hardly anyone else was doing anything. No one cared.

I never really cared to spend money on jewellery anyway, which was ideal since I would never receive anything of the sort from Imran. He kept saying that his mother had kept gold on the condition that his bride was a Muslim Pakistani, but his first wife had been Jewish and white. He never gave it to Jemima. The thought was sweet but I knew his sisters better than him by then. I assured him that I was past the age of wearing gold. But I did make it clear what I really wanted. With Allah as my witness, I asked him to work towards making KP a model province.
