In Scripture it says you cannot please God without faith. I’ve got news for you, you also cannot please God if you don’t witness for Christ. It’s the main reason the Lord still leaves His saints on this earth after salvation is secure. It won’t really help you much if you go to church regularly, are a deacon in your church, and give lots of money to the church if you don’t also share the gospel of Jesus with unbelievers. Witnessing for Christ is job number one for all Christians. Once you understand that you need to figure out how you can best accomplish that task. Your works on this earth have eternal ramifications.
Jesus set aside His heavenly crown, emptied Himself, and came to earth for one reason. Jesus came to save sinners from hell and unceasing torment in the lake of fire, FOREVER. The restoration of man’s fellowship with God was the main reason Jesus came and the thing closest to the heart of Jesus. We know this from references in just about every chapter in the Bible. The final command of Jesus to His disciples, and all Christians through them, prior to His Ascent back to heaven was the Great Commission, to preach the gospel to all the world in order to save sinners. God told us how to save sinners and Jesus set the example for us to follow.
John 3:16 – For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.
Luke 19:10 – The Son of Man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.
1 Timothy 1:15 – Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners.
Mark 2:17 – I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance.
