"And Jesus answering said unto them, They that are whole need not a physician; but they that are sick. I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance." Luke 5:31-32
Until we as brothers/sisters accept Christ as our Lord and savior we do not realize just how sick we are. We do not realize that we are the walking dead. Paul himself admits that until he became saved that he did not realize it was sin. Christ came to set the sinner free to offer him/her a chance to be redeemed. As Christians our job is to share the good news, with those that are sick and are in need of the great physician which is Jesus Christ. My son Yordon walked out the house one day headed for school, I asked him if was aware that he had food on his face. He replied no dad I did not, once he was made aware of the truth he then sought to fix the issue. The issue here is sin, as long one remains in it. Eternal damnation is what awaits that person eternal pain gnashing of teeth and much suffer. We have the chance to keep many from heading down a road that leads directly to hell. Lord grant us your perfect words that we might speak into the lives of those lost, to those who have been deceived by the ruler of this world. Let us be a reflection of you that your marvelous light would shine into the darkness and they would not fear the light but be drawn to it. So that we might share the good news with them.
