" Will You Be The One - To Answer God's Call in 2008 "

[Gary Rich]

The King of Kings and Lord of Lord's of this world - our Savior Jesus Christ made a promise 2,000 years ago. To return one day and bring all His saved believers to Heaven and send Wrath & Judgement onto the unbelievers on this planet. That time is coming very soon. There are still many lost souls in this world, who don't know Jesus as their Savior. The question God is asking you today is simple. Will you Be the One to answer His Call ? There are so many who need to hear the salvation message, but yet so few who are willing to Go and share the gospel message with the lost

Time is growing short, Jesus is returning soon just as He promised He would do. Are you willing to get out of your comfort zone and take a risk for Jesus ? Will you answer His call ? The soul harvest is many, but the soul winners are few. Jesus has called every Christian to share the gospel message with their friends, co-workers, family and neighbors who don't know Jesus as their Lord and Savior

Every Christian will very soon be standing before Jesus at the Judgement Seat of Christ, where you will have to give an accounting of how you spent your life. Did you spend it on yourself and earthly treasures that won't last. Or have you spent your life serving Jesus and investing in Eternal Treasures that will last forever ?

Jesus has been asking the same question in every generation for the past two thousand years : Will You Be The One To Answer His Call ? Taking risks and sharing the Salvation Message is the calling of every believer. Jesus is looking for faithful servants who will take risks for the Kingdom of God. He is waiting for your answer !!!



have a blessed day, Gary

Hey, I spent a lot of time on the BMW car forums talking to a few atheists, and at least one muslim about Christianity, and other religious topics. I gotta tell you, they were wearing me out.

But the good news is that one of the more vocal and biligerent atheists on there agreed to take an hour or two this weekend and listen to some Chuck Missler presentations on khouse.org.

I love it they said Christians are dillusional idiots for believing a fairy tale like that....Then I made them tell me where they believe humanity came from, they said it all started billions of years ago and our species can be dated back to dust from the universe which has eventually evolved into humans over the course of billions of years.....HA!! And they call us dillusional...

This sums up my week with them..... :snap:frust:hairout

[CHRISTinCheryl]

Amen, YES I am ... I make it a point to witness every week:)
all here know time is short indeed..:candle

STILL witnessing to my family and friends. It's really hard. 8(

I witness every chance I get, even at the risk of my friends or family thinking I'm a nut. :thumb

Father God has been impressing on my spirit to pass out tracks everywhere I go lately.
Today my daughter and I went to Harvard Square, which is a very intense, densely populated area with people from all over the world. ( Harvard and MIT). I live not too far from there and we like to shop or go for coffee so we kind of go alot. But my witnessing is the most fun there because of the diverse group of humanity! So much secular, pride and worldliness. And to tell them humbly, about the love of Christ is about the last thing they expect. There are some very punk rock type stores there, with "dark" themes and music. I used to tell my daughter that it bothered me too much to be in or near them. But today I was in the worst one of all and wasn't bothered. Turns out, I handed a store clerk one of my tracks and got to telling her about end times and what Jesus said to expect. She was very sweet and very interested to know, although to be looking at all the peircings and the gothic cult hairdo was a bit hard. I do believe this one will be saved, praise God!

I'm going to give my testimony to my Psychology of Religion class (most of my students are far from the Gospel Truth and/or from God) in the next one or two days. I just presented my thesis research in there, which glorified Him and has the power to work against one of Satan's favorite current lies.

I KNOW something significant has recently happened or will happen very soon that involves me--because the devil is pulling out ALL the stops to emotionally get to me, and to keep my students from coming during the end of last week & the beginning of this week. It's so intense that I have to keep reminding myself that it's battle, and saying to myself, "don't let him (the devil) win". I've only seen an attack like this once before, but what I found out afterwards was AMAZING!

At my fathers funeral, I witnessed to the whole group in the funeral home. The Reverend asked if family members would contribute, it makes the funeral more personal. I spent a whole day and night trying to think of something to say.
My father was an alcoholic, wife beating, adulterer, divorced 4 times, living with women, never paid attention to me and my brother our whole lives kinda guy.
Drank at bars, bar fights, lieing, dirty underhanded dealings with business and taxes construction worker who never really had much use of God or anybody 'good or Godly'.

The people that came up to me before the funeral and the visitation talked about how they used to hang out at the lions club and drink with my dad, or all the drinking and fun they used to have with my dad.
Like they were proud of it, LIKE I WOULD BE PROUD OF IT, I just nodded my head and didn't respond much, I kept looking at these people like, "ARE YOU CRAZY, this man ruined lives, he treated me worse then a dog, he beat my mother to a pulp, he raised other people's kids, not me, I was nothing to him, I'm so happy you have these fond memories."

But I smiled and nodded and thought, man guy, you need prayer, I will pray for all my fathers friends.

At the funeral, I got up, and in 'honoring thy father', I told all those strangers, a few relatives who had no use for me their whole lives either because I was 'his kid', my brother and his family who are so messed up its not funny, that my hope was not in a 'man', but my hope was in GOD.
I went on for about 15 minutes telling them about their father in heaven, Jesus Christ who died for them, that he loved them, and that all you had to do was seek him, and you will be found.
That our hope for eternity was not death and seperation from God for ever, but our hope was in Jesus and through Him, we would have eternity with God and those who love Him and an eternity with them.
And that I loved each and every one of them, and hoped to spend eternity with them, and that I prayed they would all think about it seriously.

I said alot of other things, most of it was God talking, I was delerious and the spirit controlled it all because if I had truly thought about it, I would have froze up and melted away in a corner.

I hope they all think about it, I pray just one will seek Jesus because the words mean something to them, it touched something in their heart.

I prayed over my father before he died, I read him the bible on his death bed, I pleaded for him to pray, to talk to Jesus in his head, to repent.
I bathed his forehead for 5 days, kept cold clothes on his body for hours, stretched his sour limbs because he couldn't move. Watched him die a slow painful death, praying that God would have mercy on his soul and that he wouldn't die and go to hell.

A man that probably spent a total of 50 hours of his live in my presence, and even less time caring about me, I care that he doesn't go to hell.

Now thats God's spirit, not mine, He gets the glory and the praise.

God bless you, fishersofmen! :hug I pray that God will use your Spirit-inspired message to convict and save the lost ones who attended the funeral. :pray

wow- great testimonies. All these posts show that there are so many different ways to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ with people around us. And especially with salvation tracts, you can leave those just about anywhere. I put tracts in stores, banks, post offices, shopping malls, etc. Another good place for handing out tracts is at sporting events like baseball and football games !!!
