After Jesus resurrection he gave his followers direction to "Go into the world and preach the good news to all creation."[Mark16:15]
Today we can treat our neighbors not as friends but as family. Tell them how grateful you are to have them in your life. Invite them to dinner, let them know that they are special. Invite them to church with you and your family. Tell them of instances where God has blessed your family whether financial, personal,medical etc.You do not have to cram religion down a persons throat in order to spread the word of God. This is all to often what some individuals try to do as they set out to become messagers of Christ.This method only creates tension between you and the ones you are trying to introduce to Christ, try doing it with love and compassion and you will see that people become more fascinated when it is done this way, your personal testimony seems to create a hunger and yearning in them which causes them to want to know more about Christ and experience the blessings themselves. There is nothing more rewarding than watching as a man whose life was empty and meaningless accept God into their life and to watch as he transforms them into a happy spiritual follower of his Lord and Saviour"Blessed is He Who Accepts and Follows the Lord Jesus".
Are you seeking a relationship with Christ? Do you believe that Jesus died on the cross, so that you and I could have eternal life.If so let us pray. Dear Lord I believe that you died for me on the cross at Calvary. I believe that you did this so that I too could have eternal life. Please forgive me of my sins dear Lord and come into my life and save me. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.
