Paul never forced anyone. I'm asking about commitment and time. How much should we give? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul planted churches and preached to the lost, Jesus went to all sinners, h even dinned with them. While I would not go into a strip club or even into a bar to witness, i would go outside of those places and witnesses to people going in and out. I'd be happy to witness to a prostitute or drug dealer or addict, simply because I know that God loves them, and desires they repent and be saved. If we saw someone drowing we'd jump in to save them,orat least throwin a life preserver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest HIS girl Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 'Blien' I was thinking.. Paul seemed to follow these words of Jesus.. that healthy people don't need a doctor. So my question is this. In our life, when we meet someone who is evil.. someone who is contrary to everything about our faith. Should we invest our time in them more than others? I know we are not Jesus... and we are not Paul... but what say you? Blien, I haven't read any other replies yet but just responding straight off to this post, I am reminded that Jesus didn't go to every single village and sick person that was near Him. His steps were ordered from God ...so my answer is this - go where the Holy Spirit leads. If the Holy Spirit presses on your heart to invest more time in one person over another, then do that.
