I have some advice for you...if you are sick, don't go to the hospital
Wait, why not?
Because there are sick people there.
...That doesn't make sense.
Sure it does, you shouldn't be around other sick people if you want to feel better.
...But, there are doctors there that can heal me and make me healthy. If I don't try to get healthy, then I will always be sick. If I am surrounded by other sick people, we can share stories and encourage each other to fight our illness and get better!
...Realize that we are born sinners...and in order to turn away from a sinful life and repent, we must go to church and learn to live a righteous life. When you are not saved, you are sick. The church is your hospital, the pastors are your doctors. And in the church, you will be surrounded by sinners and imperfect people. But like how in a hospital, patients want to feel better. Church goers realize they are not perfect but are willing to be perfected. If your friend or family member is sick, wouldn't you take him/her to the hospital, and be there for him/her until they get better?
Of course I would.
So if your friend or family member is not saved, not born again spiritually, and is living a sinful life; wouldn't you take him/her to church and be there for them, support them, and watch them grow?
This New Year, really challenge yourself to reach out to someone, invite them to church. We can't save everybody, but we can all save at least one!
