I’m not sure why I still get surprised when I’m witnessing with someone and they say they hope their going to Heaven or they think their going to Heaven. It’s so easy to know weather or not you’re saved that it stupefies me that others have not shared the simple, saving grace of Christ Jesus. All one needs to know whether they are saved or not is know three simple verses.
The first verse is one that most every person has heard, John 3:16. “For God loved the world so much that he gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life. ”The second & third verses are Romans 10:9 & 10. ”If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For it is by believing in your heart that you are made right with God, and it is by confessing with your mouth that you are saved.”
I’ve found that if I don’t have very long to witness with someone that if I stick with these three verses I can make inroads really fast with the person I’m witnessing with. Don’t get me wrong, I still prefer the “Way of the Master” way where you show them the Ten Commandments and lead them to repentance that way, but like I said, if times short, I can cut right to the chase this way! I look at it this way, it’s better to share Grace then to not share at all!
I hope this helps and encourages you in your sharing too!
Be Blessed!!!
