Here’s a terrifying statistic: 90% of Christians have never led another person to Christ.

People can be seen as sitting in 1 of 4 chairs.

Chair 1: These are the Christians who are on fire for God. They have surrendered their lives to him. They allow Him to guide their entire life and do everything that they can to live their lives in accordance to his will. They understand how amazing their lives are simply by following the path that God has set in front of them. They know how important it is to go out and spread God’s love with others plus they want to because they are just that excited to have God as their Lord and Savior. They strive each day to be a better Christian each and every day.

Chair 2: These are the Christians who have gotten a bit too comfortable. They will say that they have trusted in God yet they do not try to work on improving their relationship with Him. They stick with the status quo of going to church on Sundays. They will say that they love Jesus but will not stand up for him. They do not spread His love. They will say that they love Jesus but certain places are not the right place to talk about Him. God teaches us that as Christians we should stand up and spread His love regardless of the place or situation. It is sad that there are Christians who will remain silent if they are afraid of being ridiculed or talking about God may not be popular. However, look at what Jesus did for us. He was ridiculed, beaten, and eventually died on the cross for us. People being scared of being judged for loving Jesus isn’t anything compared to what He had to endure.

Chair 3: These are the people who say they are Christians. However, if they were to honestly ask themselves if they died at this very moment, they could not be 100% sure if they were going to heaven or hell. They may go to church. They do good works and even help others. They say they live for God but in reality they only do when it’s convenient. They are lying to God, themselves, and to others.

Chair 4: These are the non Christians. As Christians, we should be reaching out to these people and telling them about Jesus. Personally, I would love to know that I have brought someone into the Kingdom of God. I do admit that I have a hard time with this especially being as quiet and shy as I am. However, I know that I should allow God to give me the courage and strength to spread his word.

I don’t know about anyone else but I really want to sit in Chair 1! This kinda puts things in perspective doesn’t it?!
