Are You Doing Enough?

I solemnly charge you before God and Christ Jesus, who is going to judge the living and the dead, and because of his appearing and his kingdom: Preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; rebuke, correct, and encourage with great patience and teaching.

The Charge of a Life Time

Here in this verse we that Paul gives us a Charge to do something that often times we lose our sights on.

First lets focus on the choice of words that Paul decided to use to make his point. The word to focus on are the very first three words in the I Solemnly Charge, now we know that Paul is an educated man and spoke very well for a Roman Jew. To use these choice words was to show the importance of what he was going to say next. Then he goes and explains the important task that he we wanting timothy to do. That is to Preach the Word of God.

Now we can stop right here and see that it is another passage is telling us to go get people, which is something that we are all use to hearing. So we might as well go home .

See this month we are focusing on the One person we are to pray for and to try to get save. This Passage gives us the reason why we need to take a look at ourselves and ask the Question of are we doing enough.

we have to be willing to Accept the Charge and be willing to lead it head on over anyone else. See the passage goes on to explain why we need to be ready.

2 Timothy 4:3–5 CSB

For the time will come when people will not tolerate sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, will multiply teachers for themselves because they have an itch to hear what they want to hear. They will turn away from hearing the truth and will turn aside to myths. But as for you, exercise self-control in everything, endure hardship, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry.

People are going to get tired of hearing about Christians without see the results and it is going to affect us drastically. Lets think about this.

Don’t You Think Were There

Don’t you think that we are there? What do I mean about that? Don't you think that we are there in a time that the world is tired of Christians being all the talk with no results. They don't see the action to match the Passion for the God that is living and Alive today. Its getting to the point that the People that are starting to turn to the other Faiths that are not as free just because they see the actions that match.

About 30 Christians were killed last week in Africa just for being Christian. that was there crime they loved Jesus. Here we are to afraid to leave our church building and rather worry a youth having an attitude or vice versa. We need to start showing that we are Christians that take action.

Are You Doing Enough ( Next Steps)

So now is the time were we talk about what we should do next with this informations. Rather than do that as you might have heard we are focusing on Whos Is Your One for the month of March. On sunday I have the competorary service pick one person that wasnt just a christian but someone that they wouldnt respect someone they had a dislike for. We all have one.

I think we can go a step further in this process. lets not only pick one person to pray for lets pick someone that we havent talked to in and months. we all have those friends that we dont talk to and try to show them the Love of christ that we so Freely get to recieve Daily.

During this invation time Lets pray for that person. If you want to pray and Accept Jesus as you savior now is the time for that. the Altar is open and God is calling Wont you answer him today.
