Who Then Should Go?


In the past 2 days I have heard 3 sermons that pretty much say the same thing and has spoken directly to me. That's not to say that I am doing what was therein, but it is to say that it is imperative and commanded by God in His Word. The Word is this:


"But how can they call on him to save them unless they believe in him? And how can they believe in him if they have never heard about him? And how can they hear about him unless someone tells them?"- Romans 10:14 NLT


Actually I got the text from Pastor Greg Laurie this morning and in each message the word was the same and that is to tell others about Jesus! Whether at work or play, in the marketplace or the home place, day or night, in the mood to or not but we are to share Jesus wherever we go.


Pastor Greg also shared a story that hit really close to me as well! 'What if we knew of an absolute cure for cancer and all we had to do was to tell someone about it. And we even knew someone who had cancer and was needing that cure. Whether we felt that we could speak the cure correctly or not, wouldn't we feel compelled to share the cure with this person? How much more so should we share Jesus with a lost and dying world???'


"What, after all, is Apollos? And what is Paul? Only servants, through whom you came to believe—as the Lord has assigned to each his task. I planted the seed, Apollos watered it, but God made it grow. So neither he who plants nor he who waters is anything, but only God, who makes things grow. The man who plants and the man who waters have one purpose, and each will be rewarded according to his own labor. For we are God's fellow workers; you are God's field, God's building."
-1 Corinthians 3:5-9



Which is more important, a person's physical well-being or a person's eternal soul?
