Status Updates From Only Jesus: A Voice That So...

“The goal for the believer is not to save somebody. We can’t do that. The goal for the believer is to share the truth in love. That’s all we can do.

One word, one hand - tell me, is that too high a price? One awkward moment could be the one that saves a life.”

If we love people like we say we do, we must tell them about Jesus. To help them to seal their place in heaven - that is the true definition of love.

“The gospel says I must be ready to put my friendship on the line to tell my friend the truth. That is true love. I need to love them that much because I made it into their world.”

Most of us would say we’d die for our loved ones in a heartbeat.

But would we allow our child to die in place of someone else?

Jesus did.

This really puts that into perspective.

In the story of the prodigal son, the son’s biological father forgives him and accepts him and welcomes him back home with open arms. We often focus on that part of the story.

But the story goes deeper. His Heavenly Father also forgave him & accepted him & welcomed him back with open arms.

We are all the prodigal son, but the good news is we are never too far gone to come back home to our loving Heavenly Father.

“All the kingdoms built, all the trophies won, will crumble into dust when it’s said and done. All that truly matters is whether I live God’s truth to the ones I love and before those to whom he leads me. Is my life proof that there is only one whose name will last forever?”
