Bible Question: Where in the bible does it tell you that you will be judged for not sharing the Good news of Jesus Christ? |
Bible Answer: Hi, Keli... Judgment is for the lost, not for the believer. Furthermore, God does the entire work of redemption, not us. Our responsibility is just to speak the Word. The results are completely up to God. This is no onerous task for someone in love with the Savior! Therefore, there is no need to motivate people with fear or guilt! Who ever heard of someone who was in love not wanting to talk about the object of his love? True disciples are always about the business of multiplying themselves... but they do so always and ever in utter dependence on the Lord in prayerful, humble, and obedient living. In Him, Doc |
