One day the scripture says we all will give and account for ourselves to God. If one believes it or not it will happen and then it will be to late to change eternity. This is a speech that I have repeated over and over and over. It just does not matter to some, right now, for the enemy has blinded them and they can not see the truth and I just pray some way they will before it is to late.

Romans 14: 11-13 (NKJV) 11 For it is written:
“As I live, says the Lord, Every knee shall bow to Me, And every tongue shall confess to God.”
12 So then each of us shall give account of himself to God. 13 Therefore let us not judge one another [any longer]anymore, but rather resolve this, not to put a stumbling block or a cause to fall in our brother’s way.
There is a very thin line between judging someone and giving them scripture. When I first got saved I was out to win the world. However as a new Christian I had all the zeal and energy but not all the learning. As I grow I see where I made mistakes. To some one may plant a seed, to another one might water the planted seed and sometime may do both however our Father receives the harvest, not us.
There are people around us, every day that does not know Jesus as there savior. And out of pride or not knowing would not ask for help. Those are the ones that our walk talks to. That will give them the desire to want what we have. I can not say it enough 2 Timothy 2:15 (NKJV) Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
Then we read in 2 Timothy 4:2 (NKJV) Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching. I do not believe that the scripture was written for some, I believe it was written for us all. Yes there are different callings however it is for us all to learn and know and understand.
No one will be able to stand and blame any Preacher for not knowing as a reason for not doing. We go and listen and take notes and highlight however we are told in Proverbs 3:5-6 (NKJV) 5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; 6 In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths.
We are told, to trust the Lord and NOT to trust our own understanding. Those two things are mutually exclusive. In other words, if we trust in the Lord, we cannot also depend upon our own ability to understand everything God is doing.
I do hope and pray that is will help us understand and do as we are commanded in Matthew 28:18-20 (NKJV) 18 And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. 19 Go [omits therefore]therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” [omits Amen]Amen.
I now pray this all in the mighty and wonderful name of Jesus Christ—AMEN!
