Spiritual Fitness & Witness Victorious Christians Shout It From The Mountain Top


I am sure you have heard many Christians say, that if you just live the life, non-believers will come in.
This is not entirely effective.  Did Paul just live the life, did the apostle just live the life, did Jesus just live the life?  Even the illumination of light goes out into the darkness, and the salt must be tasted.

We are commanded to do more in relations to witnessing and God is expecting us to share the good news of Jesus Christ with non-believers.  If you are relying on just living the life (which translates into saving yourself), how will one know whether you are simply a good person according to this world vs a believer?  The bible tells us that faith without works is dead, lets stop here for a moment.

Simply put, If you believe, you will do that which you believe, starting with obedience to God's word and then moving on to witnessing and building the kingdom of God which is not of this world, but the world to come.  What recruiter do you know, just sits in one place waiting for individuals to look at him or her and think to themselves, I like that army suit, and the way he stands, I want to join the army, that school or company.  There must be a transfer of information, a word witnessed (experienced/testimony shared) and ad on the monster board, or an ad in the paper.  We must realize, we were not saved only for ourselves, but also for those who are still lost in their sin.

I understand that this is a process; the disciples were involved in a discipleship program taught by the best -Jesus- and then on, equip with power from on high before they went out.  We must follow the same steps, you cannot share that which you do not know, however, as you learn, you should share with others when the opportunities are presented or able to invite them to a bible teaching ministry that they may receive the promise, the teaching, knowledge that they may go forth and witness.....for the harvest is ripe, but the labors are few. 

In closing, we, yes are commanded to live the life, and along with it, to bring in the harvest of lost souls that awaits us, for the profiting (building) of the Kingdom of God..... www.Thegospelguide.org  Forward this to someone today!
