Warning and Teaching...

In today’s society, we are met by those who do not revere God, or think they are responsible to Him. This opposition tends to make us want to retract and let them learn the hard way. But believers have to continue to tell others about Christ. We don’t know who God will choose and who He will reject. We do this by speaking truth, even though most non-believers don’t want to hear it. We are to warn people and teach them all that God has given us. We warn by revealing God’s ways, His commands to us (to love, to respect, to honor). If we are met with vehement opposition, then smile, quote John 3:16, and move on. If we are met with a teachable heart, share all that He has done for you, and point them to Jesus. Our duty is to warn and to teach. That’s it. God will do the rest. And even though we may be met with resistance, we must be obedient in showing God our love for Him.

28 So we tell others about Christ, warning everyone and teaching everyone with all the wisdom God has given us. We want to present them to God, perfect in their relationship to Christ. 29 That’s why I work and struggle so hard, depending on Christ’s mighty power that works within me. Colossians 1:28-29
