Bible Note: Steve. I think we make a huge mistake to insist a person repeats a prayer that we lead them in. That prayer is not really coming from their heart. How many have repeated a prayer, then go out never doing anything beyond that point. Tood Friel of Wreched TV and radio shares Scripture and tells how one is to be saved, and then tells the person to please carefully thing about what what he has shared, then leaves. I personally think more asking for questions is important, or asking them is they have questions. It seems as if we are not allowing the Holy Spirit to complete the work that He is apointed to do. Is it not the responsible for convicting and leading. Clearly the unforgivable sin is rejecting the Holy Spirit's pleading to surrender to Jesus Christ as Lord. There is equal responsibility to train this new believer in Scriptures and stimulate growth. Perhaps, this is why there are so many baby Christians who still are nursing on milk. Blessings. justme |
