AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 Corinthians 1:18 ¶ For the message of the cross is foolishness [absurd and illogical] to those who are perishing and spiritually dead [because they reject it], but to us who are being saved [by God's grace] it is [the manifestation of] the power of God. |
Subject: sharing our faith to unbelievers so hard |
Bible Note: Oh, dear Jesusman, I must strongly disagree with your statement: " Tell the unbelievers to have faith in what they think is a myth, and give them a book they might think of as no more credible than an edition of Snow White?" A sister of mine in a cell group was just given a bible in the Mainland China when she was young and she read it and believed. This testimony is only the tip of an ice-berg so to see in many places.
