God’s Word has always been His chosen instrument to create, convict, convert, and conform His people.

I think it's unhelpful to suggest that the task of evangelism is essentially the responsibility of ministers.

We do live best in this world when we keep the next in mind.

Let's say that you want to do everything out of the joy that comes from knowing the Lord. Well, a lot of people aren't built like that emotionally. If they think that some sort of feeling is the basis for their action, they are going to feel justified sitting around, although they are going to feel bad that they have never taken one step of obedience because their heart is cold.

Unfortunately, many of our churches calibrate their life to these nominal Christians. The predictable result is that you get fake, hypocritical churches that confuse the message of the gospel and make it hard for others who are trying to do genuine evangelism.

I'll tell you what's more important than all the commentaries in your library: prayer.

I guess I tend to see divine appointments everywhere. I am always on the alert for opportunities. So I prefer to err on the side of witnessing too often than not enough.
