Perhaps you've also noticed. Our nation is in such dire straits both spiritually and morally.
A lot of people have simply lost hope here in the USA. How about where you live?
Politics alone can't help us turn this nation around, cuz let's say you go vote, well that vote can be stolen by Dominion. So many things have been tried..and have failed. Moralizing sinnes doesn't help. We all need a brand new nature inside.
Or what if the leader becomes corrupt like our current leader. There's evidence. Some people cheat and their leaders cheat.
These things have happened so many times, in so many lands. I've seen the evidence of this stuff myself.
The only hope for our nation is the proclamation of the Christian Gospel in the power of Christ's Spirit. Why? Well, cuz the living word (Jesus) is the ultimate solution for any person or Land. So go, "preach the word."
I don't see anything else that can turn our nation around. Let's earnestly pray for a genuine revival and a biblical spiritual Awakening for our people and Land. Let's lovingly preach the gospel in a non-preachy way.
Teach the word simply. Many people have changed their moral code to fit their personal behavior instead of changing their behavior to harmonize with God's moral code in the word. Bad idea. Do not be conformed to this world -- worship and serve the Lord biblically.
"But the hour is coming, and is now here, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father is seeking such people to worship him. God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth." John 4:23-24
When we simply preach or teach the Scriptures simply, we basically open the door for the Holy Spirit to do His work in people's lives, because as believers this is what the Lord through His Spirit told us to go do. You know preaching doesn't have to be all preachy or religious.
Ask what did the author want to communicate to the audience back then? He didn't write to us but for us. Are there any cultural differences between then and there, and the here and now? What's the takeaway--what are the eternal truths that apply to our us in day and age and to this specific personal situation? The word is His will, and the Great commission is our mission.
Use some righteous bait that the fish like (so to speak) and put a hook into every opportunity. That might sound crazy, but what I mean is use a band or a sport or a movie etc.. to draw em that doesn't have contradictory weirdness with it. Measure your life, your choices and message against God's words in the Bible. No spiritual compromise.
You want the people to hear God's message (the gospel, about the death burial and resurrection of Christ), perhaps some from your own story on what God did to convict, draw, and save you...and to be pointed to Jesus Christ the ultimate Savior and Solution. Fish4souls.org
