STREET YOU NOTHING. !! In the memories of Hudson Taylor, the first missionary who went to China, there is the following incident: At last a cult of the gospel, a leading Chinese rose and stood in a sad voice said:
"For years and years I have sought the truth, throughout his long life as my poor father sought relentlessly. I traveled a lot and I read all the books of Confucius, Buddha, Taos, and I could not find rest. And today, from what I hear, I feel that at last my spirit can rest. From tonight I am a follower of Christ. "
Then, turning to the missionary, solemn voice asked what touched for years and continue stirring to those who truly love lost sinners.
- - How long you know the good news in England?
- For hundreds of years - answered Taylor.
- What! ... "may ? - said the Chinese - for hundreds of years! ... "may you've met Jesus the Savior for so long and so far we know you have done to us? My poor father sought the Truth for many years ... and died without finding it. Oh! Why do not you came sooner, why do not you came before ?
This is the cry of all those who ignore "the good news of health."
How sad to admit that three-quarters of the believers in Christ, saved by grace, are quiet and not tell others what others are telling themselves: that in Christ there is eternal salvation now !
We have a commitment as Christians. Sharing the truth of God with those who do not. It is not an option, but a Commission.
And he said 'Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved: but he that believeth not shall be damned. Mark 16:15
How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? How will they believe in Him whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher? Romans 10:14
