Hi, I’m John Sorensen, President of Evangelism Explosion International, and you’re listening to Share Life Today.
In Romans 13:11, Paul tells us, “Do this, knowing the time, that it is already the hour for you to awaken from sleep; for now salvation is nearer to us than when we believed.” Well, what does it mean when he says, “do this?” In order to know that, we have to go back a few verses to where Paul exhorts the Christians in the church to love one another and to love their neighbors. He calls them to faithfulness and serving fellow believers and their communities. Well truly, we find ourselves in days where commitment to God at that level may cost us something. But I want to encourage you today—it is worth it. When you choose to love others by sharing the Gospel with them, you see lives changed to God’s glory. And the day when Christ returns is coming more quickly than we think. So let’s be faithful to share God’s love with others. For resources to help, visit our website at www.sharelife.today.
