"Missionary zeal does not grow out of intellectual beliefs, nor out of theological arguments, but out of love." Ronland Allen
I could spend all day on this one if I wanted to. I was reading in 1 Corinthians this morning and came across chapter 13. We can have all the knowledge of the Bible, we can quote scripture better than others, and understand all the mysteries of the Bible but if we do not have love, we have nothing. All the others are very important, but without love they are worthless. When we share our faith we should do it out of love for our fellow man. If we believe in Heaven and hell we know the outcome of those who do not believe in Jesus Christ. If you really love your friends, coworkers, family, and even strangers share Christ with them today. Don't share Christ with others to prove them wrong, share Christ with them and God will do it for you. If you go into a conversation just to prove someone wrong you have lost already. And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.
