Remember, we aren’t preaching the truth according to Paul. We are sent to tell them about Jesus, the Messiah, Lord of the world, and the Master who sent us as His servant to serve and help you. The Lord, God who said, “Light – come from obscurity,” has made His light; the truth about Him that shows who Jesus really is, come out of our hearts for you. (2 Corinthians 4:5-6)
What are the things that you should be sure
your people understand about their relationship with you? Do you spend a lot of
time and energy explaining who you are, and how you do things? Do you wait for
a special, right time to let them know why you are, and why they are there with
you?
Paul is clear. When God sent him to a person
it was for him to tell them about Jesus. He didn’t spend a great deal of time
and effort qualifying or explaining himself. He didn’t talk a whole lot about
anything other than what God sent him to do. Shouldn’t that be true of you?
When is too early to tell someone that you do all that you do because you are a
servant of Jesus? Or, how long must you have relationship with a person before
they hear that you believe life is a series of opportunities to tell people
good news?
