Why Should You Be Eager to Share the Gospel?
Are non-Christians often more eager to hear about the Lord than we Christians are to share His Good News?
At a meeting in England, a woman named Jane stood and said, in effect, "What’s wrong with you here? Why are some of you so opposed to evangelism?” Jane then proceeded to tell us how God saved her.
Jane described a wild life filled with trouble when she was single. Ironing clothes one day while high on pot and drinking vodka, she panicked as she shook and recalled a friend’s advice: “When you hit bottom, listen to these two messages.”
She listened to a Good News Gospel message I had given at London’s QPR Stadium.
Halfway through that message, she called her friend, who had given her life to Jesus Christ at QPR, and begged her to come. That day her friend led Jane to Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord.
“I was saved from drugs and drunkenness and a terrible lifestyle,” she said. “Now I’m married and my husband is pastor of a great church. I don’t understand why you’re against evangelism.”
May you and I never be ashamed of the transforming power of the life-changing Gospel of Jesus Christ, as in Romans 1:16.
“May you and I never be ashamed of the transforming power of the life-changing Gospel of Jesus Christ”
Romans 1:16
“For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes: first to the Jew, then to the Gentile.”
