I’m sure you have heard this expression, well Friday night at 3rd & Roosevelt Art Fair was the epitome of that expression!
Even a 8 year old named McKayla was able to bring a spark to those she went up to. Twice she stood up on a step stool and through a loud speaker boldly quoted the precious Ten Commands to the crowd.
What came to mind was what Jesus tells us in (Mat 18:3) and said, "Yes! I tell you that unless you change and become like little children, you won't even enter the Kingdom of Heaven!
AL, her father told me later that she had given away hundreds of the million dollar Gospel Tracts, during the two hours out on the street which asks, “Are you Good enough to get into Heaven?” So I guess by what I have been told by those in Church leadership, she has the GIFT of Evangelism. Or maybe she is just being an obedient child who places her trust in her loving father to do what he has shown her to do.
If Jesus is the Lord whom you claim, commands you to go out and share, John 14:15, John 15:14, Mark 16:15, Acts 1:8, to name a few, would you not be counted as one of His children if you did?
What come to mind is Mathew 7:21-23, "Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father who is in heaven will enter. "Many will say to Me on that day, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name cast out demons, and in Your name perform many miracles? "And then I will declare to them, 'I never knew you; DEPART FROM ME, YOU WHO PRACTICE LAWLESSNESS.'
Watch as Nicole understand her sin and is convicted and then gives her reason for her entering God's Kingdom... "She can Redeem herself"
Watch as a stream of people who walk by us on Friday night calmer to get a free glow-stick, if they take the “Good Person Test”.
Listen to the excuses of those who attend church on how God is only a loving God and would not punish those who continually violate His commands. Hebrews 10:26-29 tells us differently!
Our culture has been trained to create a God that suits themselves, one that agrees with what they believe, and their god would not send anyone to Hell. There right their god couldn't, because he is just a figment of their imagination, but the true God the Righteous God and the Just God must punish the Law breakers. 1Corinthians 1:6-9
