Since I trusted Christ in 1973, there have been many times that I have either been to workshops on evangelism or else taught workshops on that topic. I have lost count on the number of times I have been in conversations centered on that topic.
As believers we tend to, well at least I do, come up with really good reasons not to share the good news of the gospel with those around us. There are those around us that we feel will be offended if we share, after all they are leaders, they are wealthy. They do not see a need. But they are in need if they do not know Christ.
Psalm 49:5 – 20, seems to answer that for me.
The key phrase is repeated twice with some variation in verses 12 and 20. We are not to fear those who are lost but powerful around us. They are in need. We are just to share what we know (more on that tomorrow).
For the reality for those around us in Psalm 49:8 – 9. They have a major problem even if they do not know it yet. We have the answer. We need to share it. That is the right approach. That is a significant act of love.
