Subject: How to "win the world" ? |
Bible Note: Greetings Rowdy - I am glad to see your passion for the study of God's Word - far too many believers are complacent in this area . . . right now I am reading a book on evangelism by Brian McLaren: "More Ready Than You Realize". His view of evangelism is quite different from what we have grown up with. Typically, the church is about numbers not names, sad. I believe that evangelism is found in our relationships with others. We glorify God when HE can been seen in us. We can not make Him attractive to others, but we can reflect His character. We forget that evangelism is the work of the Holy Spirit, both IN us and in those whom He is drawing. How arrogant to think that WE are responsible for another's eternal destiny! If we fail to respond, God will send another, maybe even a donkey. At this point, I'd prefer not to "spar" on the issue of eternal security. Let's agree to just stay in our corners OK? Thank you for clarifying your response. Blessings, mommapbs |
