Loving Compassion For Hopeless Sheep

It has been awhile since I've posted on this blog. I ask forgiveness, as it really wasn't my fault. Actually, I was even unable to use the regular log-in, I had to go to another's blog to do it. Anyway, I'm straying from my subject:
Matthew 9:35-38 Please, look this up. The materials you will need for this: A small leather bible, if you don't have one then a big leather bible, or any bible, reading glasses if you are going blind, and possibly a notebook for notes. Okay, maybe I'm going a little overboard with this thing.
I. The Condition Of Lost Humanity

Two examples of this:
  • Harassed and Helpless
  • Like sheep without a shepherd.

Without Christ, people are: Sinful, lost, helpless, fallen, rebels, guilty, God-haters, hell-bound and the like. Another thing for you Christians: You were like this before God and Christ rescued you, you were no different from them. Look at 2 Kings 7:3-9. We are the lepers. In our first scripture, notice Jesus' response to this. His response was loving compassion, not hate or down-looking.

A few things to remember: That we were lost at one point, and mostly still are. (In the mind and in the world) Evangelism is a spiritual discipline, not a spiritual gift. If you are a christian, there is no excuse at all to not evangelise. Christ must be proclaimed.

If you are silent, the devil wins. This is definitely not right, therefore, you must:

SPEAK IT OUT!

Mac Over 'n Out

P.S. We are laborers in God's Harvest.

P.P.S. The line above the first P.S. is getting old, and i mean old.
