One might assume that going to a Bible college is a very priest like endeavor. The student sits in class and soaks up the knowledge of biblical truths that he/she gains from the professor. It is good to know the stories of Jesus’ upbringing, Pauls leadership skills, and everybody’s theological views on everything in the Bible that you can think of, but frankly Christianity is not about this. Yes, Knowledge is awesome. Some might say that knowledge is power. I think we as Christians are lacking in Action. Once we gain the knowledge, wires are getting crossed towards the action.
Christians have an obligation to share our faith with others. I don’t need to recite the Great Commission to you in Matthew and and I am not trying to make assumptions. I see the plain truth that surrounds me as I walk around the mall and see empty faces. They are hopeless and in need of Christ and in this post-christian world, we are going to have to step it up a few notches to light up this world. Do they know you are a Christian at work? Do you make a conscious effort to help people? God see’s who we truly are… ”You are the salt of the earth, But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled by men. You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on it’s stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house.” Matthew 5:13-15 Let your light shine!
