       People really aren’t joining the extremist group, that is, at least Jews or Christians. When we are sharing the Gospel then, as preachers and teachers of God’s Word, it is important how we speak. I think the best thing we can do is just speak about the Bible. God is already in the background working on the person’s heart. It is my personal belief that if the person is to be saved by God’s grace, that God will certainly see to it that the person comes into personal faith with him at some point in time. It isn’t our job, no matter who we are, to try to twist someone’s arm into come into faith. I have often seen a great amount of fear from Christians in the form of worry and concern that this person or that person won’t come into saving faith. Why the concern, though? Why the fear? We do our part and God will do his part, and it will happen at the appointed time. Living in fear isn’t going to do any of us any good. The eagerness needs to go too because that eagerness is based in fear also. We do what we do relaxed and patiently, just like Jesus did.
