Evangelist Luis Palau points music, sports heavenward

Tuesday, May 22nd, 2007

International evangelist Luis Palau, from the main stage in a two-day festival in downtown Nashville, nudges his listeners to look heavenward by turning to Jesus Christ.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (BP)–Some of the most raucous nightclubs in Nashville, Tenn., can be found in four city blocks along the Cumberland River, but those streets were home of another kind of party during the May 19-20 weekend -– a celebration of the gospel of Jesus Christ.

More than 90,000 people crowded into the streets surrounding Nashville’s Riverfront Park for the Luis Palau Festival featuring music, extreme sports and the simple presentation of the Gospel by international evangelist Luis Palau.

More than 100 of the 300-plus Middle Tennessee churches that helped sponsor the festival were Baptist, event organizers said.

“The point of this festival is not the music and the sports or anything else; it is to get all of you ready to go to heaven when God calls you,” Palau said on Sunday evening.

Christian musician Jeremy Camp quotes from Scripture during his time on stage at the Luis Palau Festival in Nashville.

Palau, speaking from the event’s main stage, began his message by talking about award-winning musician Jeremy Camp’s wife, who passed away just a few months into their marriage. Using that story to contemplate heaven, Palau clearly and deliberately shared the Gospel message, telling the festival-goers that they could never earn God’s approval on their own.

“You see, none of us would get into heaven -– not the nicest grandma or mom or dad -– if it wasn’t for the blood of Jesus that he gave on the cross 2,000 years ago,” Palau said.

If there is design, there is purpose

Think about this...

What is ‘Intelligent Design’? Here’s more on the topic…

Nobody in his right mind would ever believe that a dictionary developed because of an explosion in a printing press. Every designed product in the human experience points to a designer.

The design argument is literally as old as the hills. That’s why it does not matter how loudly the skeptic shouts “chance.” The skeptic has not been able to conquer our counter-intuitive certainty—that information assumes a mind. And so the skeptic, filled with contradictions, ends up giving designed arguments to argue against design. How ironic. Now it is important to note what is being said here. We are not just talking about aesthetic design (time plus matter plus chance can possibly explain aesthetic design), what is being discussed here is intelligent design.
