Not in mission...

If we are not in mission as Christians, then what are we doing?  What do we think that our life is about?

I have a customer that does not read this blog.  We got to talking about me preaching three Sundays in January.  They listened to the sermon from Jan 19 about caring for the least of these...

This was part of that person's response:

"One thought....I don't believe that every Christian has the same spiritual gift...example, feeding and clothing the poor is not mine. Growing in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior, studying doctrine on a day by day basis and being part of the pivot of a client nation is a gift that I believe I have. In the past, I tried to do so many things for others!!! I'm so introverted!!! I admire that you can. Would love to hear a message on what you think of the rapture, seven year tribulation, second Advent, the millennial reign and the Great White Throne Judgement!!!"

I will not be able to talk with them about this because we are not on the same page, we are not even in the same book.  We are not in the same universe.  Their Christianity and mine are mutually exclusive.  Using the excuse of being an introvert to not care for people???   Stop.  Really??? Now I have heard everything.

I have said it before and I will say it again... "

"if you did it unto the least of these you did it unto me"  Jesus

It's a beautiful day in God's world, be sure to see the good and do the good.
