**Is the Mormon Temple in SLC a public arena? The actions of some of those who feel the need to be engaged in it may lose this right for all of us. I wrote: Is the above completely honest? (not being interested in converting anyone to a religion or belief) I've seen lots of notch counting here and have been accused of not doing anything because I'm not out there on the street like the rest of you racking up converts.
I don't remember anyone saying anything to this affect. I do rememeber asking how many you have led to the Lord in any way, by letting your light shine. It is not notch counting. I think you are just hyper sensitive because you have no converts.
Kevin the way I understand it is- if one is of God the fruit will just be there -as one cannot help but to bear it. I can see two sodomites crossing the street and cry" God loves you" and they will just smile and thank me while continuing on in sin. But if I tell them the truth that God will destroy them in hell unless they repent of this sin and turn to Christ-they may get mad at first but the word of God will eventually hit it's mark-hence one bears fruit.If I bring them home for dinner they may believe that their sins aren't so bad this Christian accepts me surely God will also- no fruit-or bad fruit. The bible teaches that the Law (ie God,s commandments) are our school master to teach us-This means teach/preach the breaking of God's commandments as being wrong and that have an affect on them to bear fruit-but give then a way out of sin by proclaiming Christ.. She that is able to hear let her hear.
