La razón para nuestra audacia


Leer | ROMANOS 1.14-15

1 de diciembre de 2012

Aunque la mayoría de los cristianos están muy familiarizados con el evangelio, muchos son reacios a compartir su fe porque no se sienten capaces de explicarlo a otra persona. Cuando nos falta confianza en nuestro conocimiento de la salvación por medio de Jesucristo, el temor a las reacciones negativas o a las preguntas, pueden impedirnos abrir la boca.

Pero recordemos que Dios nos ha dado el mensaje más importante del mundo. Puesto que enfrentamos muchas filosofías antibíblicas y a tanto engaño religioso, necesitamos tener claro el evangelio, y ser capaces de presentarlo con confianza y denuedo. No podemos dejar que el temor o la ignorancia nos impidan dar a un mundo perdido el único mensaje que puede cambiar el destino eterno de una persona.

El apóstol Pablo recibía con agrado cualquier oportunidad para hablar a la gente de Cristo, porque se centraba en el poder transformador del evangelio, no en las reacciones negativas que podía encontrar. A menudo, la razón por la que nos avergonzamos de hablar de nuestra fe, es porque estamos preocupados por nosotros mismos. Pero si prestamos atención a las personas que están en nuestro entorno, si expresamos un interés sincero por ellas y si le pedimos a Dios que nos abra una puerta para compartir nuestra fe, Él responderá nuestra oración.

Tendemos a interesarnos por actividades que se desvanecen con el tiempo. Pero las almas son eternas y las personas necesitan conocer al Salvador. Busque oportunidades para saber cómo están. Cuando las necesidades de otras personas conmuevan su corazón, usted estará deseoso de presentarles el evangelio.

Dios te bendiga!
Amén

In His Eyes

July 23, 2012 Mary Southerland Today's Truth I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth, your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be ( Psalm 139:14-15 , NIV). Friend to Friend It was my first day of teaching second grade. While standing at the classroom door, greeting parents and children, I felt a tug on my skirt. I looked down into the beautiful blue eyes of Sammy, one of my new students.  His mother, who was standing beside Sammy, looked at me and said, "I guess you've heard about Sammy.  Good luck!" As she walked away, Sammy said, "She's right. I'm dumb and mean and can't read or write."  Lisa was a tall, blonde and beautiful young woman with zero self-confidence. Lisa was...

The Danger in Being a Christian: It began as a Jewish sect; fierce persecution only helped it spread

Acts 8 Acts 8:1 On that day a great persecution broke out against the church at Jerusalem, and all except the apostles were scattered throughout Judea and Samaria. In some countries, a person who becomes a Christian forfeits a good education and job. And in a few countries, a person who converts risks his or her life. One church historian estimates that more Christians were martyred in the twentieth century than in all preceding centuries put together. Yet, strangely, more often than not, intense persecution of Christians leads to a spurt of growth in the church. An ancient saying expresses this phenomenon: “The blood of martyrs is the seed of the church.” The First Big Advance For a while, the new faith enjoyed popular favor. But very soon it involved grave risk. In the book of Acts, the persecution that produced the first Christian martyr, Stephen, ironically brought about the advance of Christianity outside its Jewish base. Forced out of stormy Jerusalem, the scatterin...
