Bible Question:
Very few Christians share their faith in Jesus Christ. What is one way you share you faith in Jesus Christ with others the Lord has directed you to. Do you ask The Lord to direct you to someone to share Jesus Christ during your day? Would you be willing to ask the Lord to bring someone into your life to share Jesus Christ with today? |
Bible Answer: I do not believe the so-called "Great Comission" is given to every member in the Body of Christ, except to those specifically called by Christ as it was given specifically to the eleven disciples. We are not all thumbs in the body of Christ. We are not all apostles in the body of Christ. I prefer to believe that we are all commanded to live as peaceably as possible with all men and to always be ready to give an answer to those that ask of the hope in you with reserved strength and reverent respect, and if they don't ask then to say nothing. Being taught correct Biblical Doctrine is important and necessary before the Lord use you, for the Spirit of Truth cannot use lies, error, or heresy when trying to bring increase to what you may be planting or watering.
