Are You Ready?

[A preacher was once asked which English translation of the Bible he believed to be the best one.  He responded, “The one you will read!”  Similarly, one might ask, “Which program or method is best in order to present the gospel?”  Answer, “The one you will use!”]

I don’t know if I totally agree with this statement about what is the best way in presenting the gospel but I am convicted that Christians need to have a good grasp on at least one solid presentation of the gospel.

With that said, I pray that all of us at ODPC take the command of 1 Peter 3:15 much more seriously – to share the hope we have in believing in and living out the gospel of Jesus Christ.  Because I believe the more we commit to sharing our faith, the more we will be given opportunities to proclaim the gospel.

But in your hearts set apart Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect…” (1 Peter 3:15)

Daniel
