It's a SIN
I was reading some stuff on this website and saw this Arab proverb.
"What is the greatest crime in the desert?"
"Finding water and keeping silent"
Man! That is exactly what some Christians do. They find Jesus Christ (the water) and don't tell those that are looking for Him about Him. Just imagine, if you really were an Arab caravaning through the desert and you hadn't come to any water so everyone was dying from dehydration, and someone finally finds water, but doesn't tell anyone about it. That would be horrible. Especially if you find out later when you're sick and dying from dehydration. That's what will happen when we get to heaven if we don't tell everyone about Christ. I am reminded about an article that David wrote called The Judgment. It is a must read. It's about a dream where he is standing by Jesus during the judgment and is watching as all his friends and acquaintances are being condemned to hell because he didn't tell them about Jesus. It is so scary to know that everyone that walks by you is on your hands. And if we as Christians don't tell them, they might never hear the gospel! You might be their only chance!

Hey This is theo and I'm reading over a buncha old comments and posts... I like that proverb. Mid if I steal it?
(jk)
Until the net is full,
Theo:)
Hey, Theo!
Finally you're on here!!!
And the reason these are all old posts is because I was waiting for peeps (like you) to comment 'cause if no one comments, that means no one is reading, and if there's no one reading, there's no reason to post new stuff. Get my point???
And of course I don't mind if you steal it! :)
