Evangelizing...the new frontier!

This past week I was able to take a class over evangelism and it really opened my eyes. One thing my professor stressed over and over was "do we really hate people that much to not witness the love of Christ to them?"

It's sad because it's so true.

Why do we hold back? We shouldn't be embarrassed. Christ gave His perfect, sinless life for us so that we may be reunited with God for all eternity. We're all given opportunities to witness to the world about Christ, even if we may not realize it. This whole subject reminds me of the song "Tell The World", which is one of my favorite worship songs. The chorus goes "Tell the world that Jesus lives, tell the world that He died for them." That is our job ladies and gentleman. In Matthew 28: 18-20, Christ commands us to "Go and make disciples of ALL nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit". So my question is this: why aren't we doing it? I'm just as guilty as the next person, and this year I want to evangelize more. I'm not going to be one of those "bullhorn guys" that stands on the corner downtown screaming that all nonbelievers are going to Hell, but I'm going to make sure that I develop friendships as I witness to others. It is so important to build trust with others, and that is the first step. I don't know if anyone is going to be reading this, but if you do, please understand that Jesus loves you so much that He died to forgive you of your sins. And He wants you to tell others you come in contact with about what He did for the whole world. He wants all of you in Heaven with Him rejoicing and praising God :) And that's a wonderful feeling

Well I'm off to bed. Goodnight!
