What's in it For Me?

Extreme Soul Winning “These men who have turned the world upside down have come here also…” --(Acts 17:6) The apostles turned the world upside down with the Gospel. The Lord had accomplished such amazing things in their lives that they could not hold themselves back. They had passion. They were believers. We are believers with the same Holy Spirit, a powerful testimony, and the Word of God. We, too, need to be extreme in our passion for taking the Good News to the lost. Passion is an intense desire. The opposite of passion is apathy. Apathy is indifference, an “I just don’t care” attitude. As a tire can get a slow leak, so our Christian walk can experience passion leaks, and before we know it, our evangelism tire is flat. Apathy is the reverse attitude of those in Acts, who turned the world upside down. When we are apathetic, everything will turn us upside down. Our zeal for witnessing is in direct proportion to our passion for God. If we keep a vital relationship with Jesus, and guard against those things that could diminish our love for Him, then we will turn our world upside down. --Jamie Morgan Copyright 2002.
