BECAUSE CHRISTIANS WERE SILENT! 😷

📝DAY 3

Some of those millions could be your loved ones, neighbours, or friends. They may suffer a terrifying eternity because of your closed lips.

Share the truths of the Bible and Gospel now. It may be too late to change the Godless direction of society, but at least a Christian can hear the.

Mat. 25:21: “… His master replied, 'Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master's happiness!'

C. H. Spurgeon said “If sinners are damned, at least let them leap to Hell over our dead bodies. And if they perish, let them perish with our arms wrapped around their knees. If Hell must be filled, let it be filled in the teeth of our exertions, and let no one go unwarned.”

C. H. Spurgeon expresses a strong sense of duty, sacrifice, and compassion. He suggests that, if people are to face damnation or a terrible fate (in this case, going to Hell), he is willing to do everything in his power to prevent it. He is willing to go to great lengths, even to the point of giving their lives, to try to save others.

The message is one of deep concern for the well-being of others, even those considered to be "sinners," and a determination to do whatever it takes to help them. C. H. Spurgeon emphasizes that he will not stand idly by; he will actively work to prevent any harm or suffering.

📝DAY 2

🎚 🎚 HERE ARE SOME OF THE DAMAGES AND SUFFERING THAT WAS CAUSED BY THOSE THAT KNEW BETTER BUT FAILED TO UPHOLD THEIR RESPONSIBILITY.
.....................................................................................................................

1) MILLIONS OF PEOPLE WILL SPEND AN ETERNITY IN HELL BECAUSE THEY NEVER HEARD THE GOSPEL. MANY CHRISTIANS WERE “EMBARRASSED,” ASHAMED, AFRAID, OR TOO PROUD TO TELL THEM.

📖Rom. 10:14 says: “How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?”
............................................................................................................................

2) MILLIONS OF PEOPLE WILL LEAD LIVES OF SIN AND DEFIANCE TO GOD BECAUSE THEY HAVE NEVER HEARD THE TRUTH NOR WITNESSED A GOOD CHRISTIAN EXAMPLE

📖Acts 8:30-31: " Then Philip ran up to the chariot and heard the man reading Isaiah the prophet. “Do you understand what you are reading?” Philip asked. “How can I,” he said, “unless someone explains it to me?” So, he invited Philip to come up and sit with him."
................................................................................................................................

3) MILLIONS OF PEOPLE BELIEVED THAT THERE WAS NO DISTINCTION BETWEEN A CHRISTIAN AND THOSE WHO WERE LOST, AS THEY NEVER WITNESSED ANY DISCERNIBLE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THESE TWO GROUPS. THEY HADN'T BEEN EXPOSED TO A LIFE OF HOLINESS. FURTHERMORE, THE TOLERANCE OF SIN AMONG MANY PROFESSING CHRISTIANS HAS CONTRIBUTED TO THE CONFUSION OF THE LOST.

📖II Cor. 6:17: “Therefore, 'Come out from them and be separate,’ says the Lord. Touch no unclean thing, and I will receive you.”
....................................................................................................................................

4) MILLIONS DO NOT KNOW WHAT THE BIBLE TEACHES AS THEY HAVE NEVER HEARD BIBLICAL TRUTHS NOR HAVE SEEN ONE LIVING THE WAY GOD COMMANDS. IN THE ABSENCE OF EXPOSURE TO THESE TRUTHS, THEY MAY HAVE FORMED INACCURATE ASSUMPTIONS ABOUT THE BIBLE'S TEACHINGS, CONSTRUCTED THEIR OWN BELIEF SYSTEMS, OR EMBRACED MISLEADING DOCTRINES.

📖“Romans 10:3 (NIV):"Since they did not know the righteousness of God and sought to establish their own, they did not submit to God’s righteousness."
....................................................................................................................................

5) MILLIONS THINK THEY ARE GOING TO HEAVEN BECAUSE OF THEIR GOOD DEEDS THEY HAVE DONE, AS SO MANY “CHRISTIANS” HAVE NOT TAUGHT THEM OTHERWISE. THAT FALLACY IS THE FOUNDATION OF MANY FALSE RELIGIONS.

📖Eph. 2:8-9: "For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works, so that no one can boast.”

BECAUSE CHRISTIANS WERE SILENT! 😷

📝DAY 1

Christians have the God-given responsibility to share the Gospel and the truths from the Word of God. However, many believers have not done as they are biblically commanded. They are not the society-changing “salt” or the sin-revealing “light” God required them to be. As a result of man’s refusal, rebellion, and ignorance to do as they are commanded, others have suffered.

📖 “Matthew 5:13: "You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot."

📖 Mark 9:50: "Salt is good, but if it loses its saltiness, how can you make it salty again? Have salt among yourselves and be at peace with each other."

📖 Luke 14:34: "Salt is good, but if it loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again?"

📖 Matthew 5:16: "In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven."

📖 Luke 1:79: "...to shine on those living in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the path of peace."

📖 John 11:10: "But if anyone walks in the night, they stumble, because the light is not in them.

The Expectation of the Righteous – Proverbs 23:17-18.

HOW IT WILL NOT BE CUT SHORT: (PART 1)
———————————————————————-

Do not envy sinners, but always continue to fear the Lord. You will be rewarded for this, your hope will not be disappointed. – Proverbs 23:17-18 NLT

I am writing this from a place of great expectations and believe for you and I even as the year 2022 wraps up.

I am so convinced that the Lord has amazing things to unveil for us still in this year 2022.

In this moment I am reminded of this hilarious tweet I saw from a lady sometime last year or the year before.

She was like and I am paraphrasing, ” baba God, so many people have written this current year off and have moved on to the next year already. But I have not written this year off just yet. Now that traffic to heaven for this year has reduced, it is me and you God, please surprise me!”.

Thinking about it and writing it made me laugh all over again.
As hilarious as it may seem, the lady did have an expectation from the Lord.
She believed in the God who does not need the whole year to change a situation around or deliver that new package.
He is the God who sprung up water from a rock, He is the God who changed the lot of His children close to the red sea overnight – (Exodus 14 ), He is the God who changes seasons overnight .

In summary, what I am trying to say is that God is not limited by time.

STRATEGY FOR EVANGELISM AND SOUL WINNING

🚩HOW TO HANDLE REJECTION (Part 2)

🚩Let the rejection drive you to your knees, not to bitterness or self-pity

We are to urge men to repentance (2 Corinthians 5:20).

God is patient and long-suffering with us, not wishing that any should perish (2 Peter 3:9). We should persevere as long as there is even a glimmer of hope. But when they mock the message of God and reject you as its messenger, leave them to the Lord to deal with in the way He sees fit.

But note this: this is not a license to be judgmental or self-righteous. On the contrary, this is a call to humility, to recognize that we are not sovereign to save, no matter how clever or crafty our presentation. This is a call to persistently and sorrowfully pray for them (Luke 19:41–42) and to thank the Lord that in His grace He has opened our blind eyes.

🚩But if we are rejected, what should we do next?

What to Do Next

Do not argue.

Do not jeopardize your testimony (and potentially build barriers for other believers who may engage
this person in the future) by needless arguing simply to prove a point. Let the gospel, not your personality, be the only offense to the unbeliever.

Remember, the Word of God has not failed (Isaiah 55:10–11). He may even use your meek and gracious response to prick the person’s conscience. It only falls to us to be faithful to the message. The results are the work of God.

🚩Do not take their rejection personally.

If you are being faithful to confront with the gospel, we must remember that they are ultimately not rejecting us, they are rejecting Christ (1 Thessalonians 2:13). Be patient and kind, and do not abandon the friendship. Be faithful to get the message right, and then leave the rest to God. Having this understanding will keep you from being discouraged, because it isn’t up to you to save someone. That is the role of God alone.

🚩Continue to pray for their repentance.

Your responsibility is now to ask God for the salvation of this person. Ask the Lord to make His hand heavy upon the person’s conscience and to draw him to Himself. Let the rejection drive you to your knees, not to bitterness or self-pity.

🚩Continue to live out Christ-likeness and be available for future reference.

Make them aware of how to contact you if they ever have questions about spiritual issues. Assure them you will continue to pray for them, and then be faithful to do it.
