T'aint no Foolin' about it.

A girls parent from my office came by today to see their daughter. The dad handed me a trillion dollar bill with obama's face on it and i laughed, then as i turned it over it was a track. They know im a believer but wanted me to have it so i can pass it on. I read the track just to make sure it was a good one, which it was, and then her mom and i had a conversation about how important it is for people to know their sin. She said you can toss a person a life saver but they wont take it if they don't know their drowning.

This is so true. How important is it for people to know they are sinners? EXTREMELY important, how can someone know how desperate their need is for a savior unless they realize how far from God they are. I know the Holy Spirit plays a pretty big part here, which is yet another reason for us to tell anyone and everyone about Christ because we don't know who the elect are or how the Holy Spirit is working in a persons heart. Yes we need to tell people about Jesus but we don't need to butter people up and tell them that they are great people, when we know that our hearts are dark and wicked. Leaving this part out of the gospel makes us liars. And if a person is so "great" without God, why have a need for him. Just something to think about. Please don't leave how sinful humans are out of the gospel.

Grace and Peace.
