Can you think of someone that you can’t even imagine becoming a real Christian? Ever! Yo, no one suckin' air is beyond the reach of God! What will ya do?

"Hey man, don’t get all preachy or 
judge my journey."
 

Nothin' to be embarrassed about, believer. No shame in your non-game. Expect. Explain. Tell, they'll never be the same. "So do not be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows. Therefore everyone who confesses Me before men, I will also confess him before My Father in heaven. But whoever denies Me before men, I will also deny him before My Father in heaven..” Matthew 10:31-33

Do you mean, Kurt, that if I just stand up for Jesus before some of my buds or others, then He'll stand up for me? Yup, that's right. Okeee, I'm all in.

Man, don't just quote the Bible like some anamatronic-robot, speak the word but first surrender to what it says. Yes fully, to the Living Word. Fish for peeps. Believer, you can do this.. like Christ did. Don’t pressure em, or get all preachy, or haughty-condescending talkin' down to em, or judge their hearts -- "judging their journey." Why condemn them -- why act religious and weird? Christ ain't like that. Never has been. He's our kind Savior and primary example in this soul-winning and discipleship thang. Listen, God is the only One that can see their hearts. 

We don’t know all they came from or where they will go, where they'll end up. But we can discern their condition saved or lost? Can we evaluate the facts we see, can we righteously judge what’s going on around them, and be fruit inspectors. By their fruit you will know them. Talk tactfully listening to their hurts, questions, needs. Preach the word in a non-preachy or pushy sorta way -- explain turning (repentance) and trust (saving faith) -- just bring them to Christ. He is the One who catches His fish and then cleans them.. so to speak.    

It takes some boldness. Ask for. Simple. If you tell others that you belong to Jesus then He, God the Son of Man who loves and died on a Cross for peeps, will tell His angels that you are His follower. Sounds like a pretty good relational agreement for spreading the Good News -- the best news ever!  

It starts with one praying person on this 3rd rock. Throughout history, biblical revivals and great spiritual awakenings ..began with just one person. Will that person be you? Will you go share what Jesus has done in your life?
If people visit your social media or you like at your work address, can they tell that you are a follower of Jesus Christ? Go into all the world and post, tweet, insta the Gospel with your clean curating. Invite them to this wonderful person.. in person too. 
The more we grow spiritually the more we realize we need to grow spiritually. The early church turned their world upside down. But the church of today is much larger than the early church and has considerable resources, with incredible technology to utilize. Yet it seems as though the world is turning us upside down. Why?Because we need a revival. Pray, wait upon the Lord, Listen, live it wisely, share the Good News! The Gospel is simple. Why complicate what they need to grasp hold of?

"The experience of revival is nothing more than a new beginning of obedience to God.” ~ Charles Finley

Any genuine revival that has ever happened in all of human history has brought about true repentance in the lives of the people hearing the Message, a real change in the community too, and 1 on more than 1 soul-winning (aka evangelism en masse). I love 1 on 1 winning em to the Lord as well. Pray earnestly in faith. Remember June 10th, ‘18 -- pray. Let's thank and praise God in advance for what He's gunna do! He has a part, and we have ours.

“Always point people to the God of second chances.” ~ @GregLaurie

We don’t need some new extra-biblical kinda truth.. or some new spiritual thing. The Church needs a revival, the people and their nations need a spiritual awakening. No need for a new revelation at all really. Rather, we need to get back to the old things.. the old trails and truth if ya will. "Stand in the ways and see, and ask for the old paths, where the good way is, and walk in it; then you will find rest for your souls’” Jeremiah 6:16

"I tell you, everyone who confesses Me before men, the Son of Man will also confess him before the angels of God. But whoever denies Me before men will be denied before the angels of God..” Luke 12:8 
“That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.” Romans 10:9

Some might kinda seem like it, too hardened, but.. No One Is Beyond the Reach of God -- Christ will forgive anyone if they would just humbly turn to Him!

“In the same way, I tell you, there is joy in the presence of God's angels over one sinner who repents." Luke 15:10  Facebook.com/shareJesus
