I think of my brother and sister who responded to an altar call because dad and a couple friends went forward. Or my sister-in-law who still refuses to believe. Our many friends who “knew” they were Christians because they grew up in the Church.
Only a few of those mentioned have turned and repented. They only did because of someone asking them about their relationship with Christ and sharing the Gospel.
It is not just the outside world that needs the Gospel. We do, too. And besides, Jesus warned that many who say “Lord, Lord” will be rejected in the last day. (Matthew 7:22-23)
Do we truly love the Lord our God with all our hearts, souls, minds, and strengths? Maybe I can help with the mind part, at least! This is Daniel M. Klem, apparent poet, reluctant yet passionate Disciple (Peter?), and foolish man attempting to understand theology!
Thanks!
