"Ditto to what Gary Rich said"

 
 
 
Doves:
I just want to re-iterate Gary Rich's excellent points he made about the imporance of sharing the Gospel in his letter dated 5/4.
 
Funny -  he used the same verse  (confirmation that it is a very important message from the Lord) a friend of mine and I read and discussed recently before heading out on an evangelistic outreach mission:
"As it is written, how beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of Jesus Christ, and bring glad tidings of good things!” (Romans 10:14-15)
 
Brethren, keep in mind, not too many people are out there trying to win souls for Christ!
There are plenty of opportunities for you and me to preach the Gospel.
Also, remember, you may hand a witnessing tract to someone or share the Gospel orally, but the Holy Spirit is working on their hearts, too! So, you are not alone and  remember anytime you share God's Word with anyone, "It shall not return to Me void, But it shall accomplish what I please, And it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it " (Isa. 55:11).
 
Also, let's look at the eternal rewards for people who lead many to salvation:
 
Daniel 12:3 says, "Those who are wise shall shine Like the brightness of the firmament, And those who turn many to righteousness Like the stars forever and ever. "
 
 
I truly love to discuss Eschatology and the End Times things... And I have seen a lot of folks at seminaries, in academic circles, even in Bible discussion group and apologetics conferences caught up in a lot of seemingly good things.    But unless it's in His will it does not mean a whole lot! So, let's not get too wrapped up in it! Yes, let's all look actively for His coming...And I think right now, in my mind, taking into consideration, the Lunar Tetrad that will take place in 2014-15 and the experience I had when the Lord told me back in 2008 of His coming soon, I am not looking at being here past 2017. So, that gives me maybe 3 and a half more years to share the Gospel and try point others to the Lord Jesus.
 
So, Remember Christ's first mandate is the Great Commission!
 
Let's preach the Word in season and out of season! (2 Tim. 4:2)
 
Maranatha!
