About this listen

 Raymond Lull was a remarkable figure who embodied the spirit of a Renaissance man long before the Renaissance even began. After a transformative encounter with Christ, he dedicated his life to spreading the gospel. While many of his contemporaries sought to expel Muslims from the Holy Land through violent crusades, Lull embarked on a unique mission of love and reason to convert Muslims with compassion and intellect. He championed the study of oriental languages, undertook daring missionary journeys to North Africa, and ultimately paid the ultimate price for his faith with his martyrdom. Lull’s guiding principle was simple yet profound he who loves not lives not; he who lives by the Life cannot die. (Summary by Aletheia Charis)Copyright Biographies 2.0 Christianity Spirituality World
