The First Contact


Much of unregenerate contemporary humanity is bent on prejudice when it comes to the things of God. They have been programmed into thinking that we are fanatical, religious "fundamentalists." However, if they only knew what we have in Christ, if they could only have the light of understanding about the issues of eternity, they would listen with bated breath. This is why our first contact with an unsaved person is so important. We can't give them a reason to keep their prejudice. While we speak to them on a natural level, they should be feeling the warmth of a genuine, sincere heart. Then, when they find that we are Christians, they should be saying within their minds, "This person is different." So, let the warmth of God's love be evident every time you make contact with any unsaved person. There goes another minute. Gone forever. Go share your faith while you still have time.
