Listen now, "God is Calling"


Romans 10:15 (KJV)
15 And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!

We must take God's great message of salvation to others so that they can respond to the Good News.

How will your loved ones and neighbors hear it unless someone tells them?

Is God calling you to tell them and to take a part in making his message known in your community?

Think of one person who needs to hear the Good News, and think of something you can do to help him or her hear it. Then take that step as soon as possible.

Lifestyle Evangelism (one's living proclaims the gospel) and Confrontational Evangelism (declaring the message).  Both should be used together in promoting the gospel.

Because we have been reconciled to God, we have the privilege of encouraging others to do the same. When we are united with Christ as members of his body, we join in his priestly work of reconciling God and people. We are given that responsibility of bringing others to him.
