Being a witness

Once you have become a child of God we are expected to evangelise. While growing up I thought it was only the Evangelist in the church had that power and authority but as I read my Bible and grew I discovered that we are all called to be witnesses of the gospel of Christ. In my office there are several young people and most of the times (quite regularly to be truthful) I mention to them the need to accept Christ in their lives because if He is not seen as Lord in their lives now the time will come when all will have to acknowledge that He is Lord. If one has never bowed in worship to Him before at that time whether or not they want to bow they must bow. I remember after witnessing to a young coworker he said to me that I made him feel guilty. I said to him that that wasnot me but the Holy SPirit impressing and convicting him of the need to be saved. Of course there are some people who go against what I believe but I tell them that God and I are not in malice therefore if i am wrong He will guide me. I find telling others of Christ a joy and easy to do. What about you? Do you have a passion for souls? Let me know of some of the experiences you have had! God bless.

I have helped a few people get on the narrow road that leads to everlasting life and it is a joy and a blessing to be able to help others. 1 Thessalonians 2:19 New International Version (NIV) 19 For what is our hope, our joy, or the crown in which we will glory in the presence of our Lord Jesus when he comes? Is it not you?

It is a joy to tell people about the good news of the Kingdom of God and the benefit they can have when they apply the Bible principles in their life. I started to study the Bible with a couple who visited us, at age 14. At 15 I followed them and started learning to visit people from door to door. Later I had the opportunity to help some of them to learn to know the True God. I am still talking with others about the great hope we have when we follow the footsteps of Christ. It is a great joy to do that...
