So, most of us do believe in a literal place called Hell, but the majority of us are doing nothing about our friends and family and neighbors that we know are headed there.

Why?

Well, the poll tells you why.

Fear seems to be the run away winner.

So here are some things to consider if you are afraid to share Christ with others…

What’s the worst thing that can happen to you?

Think about this one. There are many countries around the world where your very life would be in danger for simply being a Christian. Yet. Here in America, likely the worst things that ‘might’ happen are ridicule and rejection.

Once you realize this, it reduces your fear.

Here’s the next thing we can do…PRAY.

Why?

Take a look at this verse. It answers that question.

And this verse, if you still don’t get it.

And this one.

And one more.

All good reasons to pray.

Here’s the third help…

3. Start small and work toward more. How about simply inviting that friend to Southbrook Church this weekend as Clayton King shares the gospel in a compelling and relevant way? It might make an eternal difference, and it’s easy!

4. Educate yourself. A lot of Christians claim they don’t know enough to share Christ with others but, at the same time, they make no effort to learn. The Bible says, study to show yourself approved.

Study what?

The Bible!

It’s the best place to start. See this verse, and I’ll see you this weekend!

Hey Rob,

Thank you for taking all the excuses and making it clear that what we as a “Church”, ALL OF US, need to be doing to everything humanly possible to get the lost to recognize where they are in life and what will happen without the love of the LORD and belief in his ultimate sacrifice. It is clear that even those that were hesitant have no more excuses not to bring the lost. This weekend will be a wondrous revival. LET’S blow the top off the church and meet in the streets. Let the glory of the Lord shine in all of his BELIEVERS so that none can deny his awesome works.

See you Saturday Night with two lost souls. I will drag them in if needed. I love them and I have faith the Lord will work in their hearts.

This weekend, He will be a shining beacon for all of our lost to see.

Glory to GOD he is so awesome.

My prayer is as Paul’s (still working on it……well God’s working on it in me)

“19 And pray for me, too. Ask God to give me the right words so I can boldly explain God’s mysterious plan that the Good News is for Jews and Gentiles alike.[g] 20 I am in chains now, still preaching this message as God’s ambassador. So pray that I will keep on speaking boldly for him, as I should.” Ephesians 6:19

Hey Rob,
Your comments today remind me of a quote I read just this morning. ‘A ship is safe in harbor, but that is not why the ship was built.’ It’s the same with us. We feel safe and comfortable where we are; smoozing with the people we know best. However, God oftentimes moves us out of our comfort zone to stretch our faith. Thank you Rob for being a beacon of light in my world that taught me…”Frances, you have to keep moving forward…You can’t go back!
