The most meaningful thing that I can remember about today was a quote I came across:
If your Gospel isn't touching others, it hasn't touched you!
--Curry R. Blake
In my opinion this really rings true. How could a Christian believe what he says he believes without telling others? The natural tendency is to look out for yourself first , but to be a benefit to others is certainly more noble. It is better to give than receive. Perhaps some people are opposed to the preaching of the gospel and some people dont understand, but that is no reason not to try. If a million people reject the gospel and one person accepts it then for all eternity that person will be saved. But the emphasis on the quote is on the people that already have the gift. Not sharing it is like having an endless supply of gold while people starve in the streets. Well the analogy falls apart because everyone wants gold not God, although he is more valuable. Even if someone is opposed to the preaching of the gospel they should understand that to a person who believes it its only natural to tell others.
