"Evanglism or extinction"- Keri Jones
This catchy phrase, stated by the apostle of mwb, has sparked a new passion in me. What an amazing gift we have been given. It's free and we have it to offer to other people. Though we can't save them, we can point them to Christ. If we were given a million bucks and were allowed to tell anyone else where to get some too, we would tell our friends, family, and all those important to us, so that they could enjoy that sweet chunk of change as well. But, Christ seems to be the best kept secret of our generation. We all seem happy to have our own personal savior and keep him to ourselves. I am not suggesting that everyone should run out and talk to complete strangers about God, but we should make sure that all those close to us know where we stand, and share Christ with them. I have been excitied about the recent salvations in Gilman and St. Charles/Elgin and look forward to more growth. We must continue to grow, because if we are not growing we are standing still and if we are standing still we are back sliding. Extinction is not an option, but I don't want my generation to be past by, for the next generation or the generation after that. I was born for such a time as this and so were you. Let us serve the purpose of God in our generation, and see the church brought in to fullness. Be blessed and be a blessing... oh yeah, and SHARE YOUR FAITH.
