We, who read and believe in the bible have become aware that an awesome fate is awaiting those who do not know what we know, and it is our duty to tell and encourage everyone what they must do in order to be saved.
Picture the following scenario:
While I stroll one evening, I see a tall building whose basement is on fire. Isn’t it my duty to do all I can in order to warn all those who live higher up?
It certainly is.
We, who know the Truths of God must help our fellow men see what we see, and do what we did: that is to fear God, to submit ourselves to him, and learn to love him.
We can only do that by introducing Jesus to them, the only person that can save them.
This is our outmost duty, our mission while on earth. It is the reason that we are still alive, that we did not pass away the moment we were born again: so as to find ourselves in a better world!
Sure, we have to spend most of our time and efforts working and looking after ourselves and our families, but we must not neglect to fulfil our duty of helping others to know Jesus and all that he told us.
Jesus made of each one of us a light in this world.
Of course, we have no light of our own! We are just the lantern…
We just have to keep it clean, so that Jesus’ light may shine through it, and we must display it where others can see its light, not hide it… in a monastery of some sort!
Jesus also told us that we are “the salt of the earth”. Salt causes thirst!
We are strategically placed in this world in order to create thirst to those who are around us, thirst of knowing, belonging and loving the only True God!
We all have a talent, something particular to us that we can use in order to encourage others to join our universal affiliation, the body of Christ, that they may also escape from the wrath of God that will soon be unleashed and that they may receive instead his pardon and an eternal blessed life, just as we did.
We all have a part to do in this body of Christ: Let us not stay idle.
We must look for a way to be useful in propagating the Word of God and drawing others to Jesus Christ!
The way I found is to send these messages of mine “sandwiched” with my music through the air…
Time? Money? Abilities? Knowledge? Family? Friendships? Contacts? Compassion?
It will certainly cost you, but that is the reason that you are still alive, that you did not pass away the moment you were born again so as to find yourself in a better world!
Use your time here on earth, and whatever you may possess to help others turn to Jesus.
Do your part, that nobody else can do…
Deciding to follow Jesus implies joining a community that has been given a mission by its Founder!
The Mission is for us to be a Light to the World so as to inspire those who live in spiritual darkness or error to do the same as we did: Submit to Jesus’ teachings and example.
and we must show them the way to get there, instruct them with the Words of God, the Bible.
It is our duty to do so.
Just as we had been pulled in by others to Christ, so, each one of us must do what he can to pull others to him.
It is our duty, our mission that was given to us by our Lord: we must do our part in the body of Christ so as to bring many others to repentance, change of life and eternal life.
