We are in debt to the lost!
Imagine discovering that you possessed the cure for a disease that was killing millions of people. Would you keep it to yourself while people all around you suffered and died? Of course not! You would tell everyone you could.
Christian, we have something infinitely more important than a cure for cancer. We have the gospel of Jesus Christ!
Sin is the greatest disease known to mankind. It has infected every human being, separated us from a holy God, and left us under the sentence of death. And its consequences extend far beyond the grave.
But we know the cure! Jesus Christ died for sinners, was buried, and rose again. Through Him, sinners can be forgiven, reconciled to God, and delivered from the penalty of sin.
Paul said in Romans 1:14, “I am under obligation both to Greeks and to barbarians, both to the wise and to the foolish.”
He understood that he had been entrusted with a message the world desperately needed to hear.
Christian, if we truly believe that sin is killing people and Jesus Christ is the only remedy, how can we possibly remain silent?
People are perishing. We have the gospel. Tell someone, anyone about Jesus!
