RE: [TruthTalk] What is a Christian?

[Kevin Deegan]

Well thanks for speaking to him about his condition..

So many today think the armour of the Lord is a seat cushion!

 

 "Brethren, do something; do something, do something! While societies and unions make constitutions, let us win souls. I pray you, be men of action all of you. Get to work and quit yourselves like men. Old Suvarov's idea of war is mine: `Forward and strike! No theory! Attack! Form a column! Charge bayonets! Plunge into the center of the enemy! Our one aim is to win souls; and this we are not to talk about, but do in the power of God!'"  Charles Spurgeon

There are only 2 times to preach IN season & Out of season

Very true Kevin.  However I don�t read the word �Bludgeon� in there.  We cannot bludgeon anyone into the kingdom.  A rebuke and a reproof and exhortation can be done with dignity and firmness�but doesn�t always have to be harsh.  Your heart is in the right place.  Check the fruit of your efforts to see if they are working now and then.  Maybe they are; I don�t know. I just know that DaveH has chosen his path, and I can�t reason or scream him out of it.  Some things are between him and his conscience. I�m ready to talk if/when he is ready, but can�t barge in against his will. Izzy
