The danger of not wanting to hurt (continued)

I should have told the gentleman I mentioned yesterday that his situation was alarming. I just told him leaving him that God was working his heart and his life patiently to bring him to a total submission (just as he had been working for 10 years to purify a beach), but I should have read him the passage from Romans 1: 20-23 and confront him. If we refuse to go to the end of what the Spirit leads us to say, and boldly proclaim the whole message of the good news, then we will not perfectly fulfill what God had for us, and especially, for the lost.

To announce the Gospel is for some a smell of death, and for others a smell of life. But we must fully announce the gospel. We can call our churches the Full Gospel churches, but when we share the Word of God in the streets, do we always share the Full Gospel, or a diluted gospel ? We must share to the end the truths of the Word of God.

We can not speak only of grace without speaking of sin. If we do not want to confront people and show them that they have sinned and are thus deprived of the glory of God (in this case, I still declared this truth to him), then they will not know that they need of a Savior who has paid to clear their sins ! We must really learn, and I invite you to pray about it, to fully, absolutely, fully, fully, perfectly, totally announce the message of God. Tell him : "Lord, help me to announce a clear message !".

John the Baptist had a radical message. Jesus had a radical and complete message. The apostles also had a radical message. If we want the same fruits, we must use the same message.
