This Week #3-6

In continuing our DUSTY series we focused on the “T” – Telling others the TRUTH of who Christ is. We looked at many verses of that not only showed the calling Christ gives us (Mark 16:15-16/ Romans 1:16-17) but also the concern each of us should have in our hearts over those who don’t know Christ (Romans 9:1-3). In this verse Paul is in agony over those who do not know Christ. The question we need to ask ourselves is, “Are we truly concerned about those who don’t know Christ?” Because we need to be!!! Some of the tangible steps given to the students to start the process of telling others about Christ is: 1. Make a list of 3-4 people you know that don’t yet know Christ, put this list by your bed and pray for them every night. 2. Pray for those on your list AND for yourself to have opportunities, wisdom and boldness to share your faith. 3. Live a life that is an example of Christ to others. Don’t tell others how much Christ loves them and what He is doing in your life and then be a jerk to others-that doesn’t make sense. 4. Invite them to come to church, so that we can, as a community, show them a love they haven’t experience before, Christ’s love. 5. When God tugs on your heart and asks you to share your faith DO IT.
