I knock on doors every week to spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I always ask, "What are you depending on to get you to Heaven?". I get a variety of answers. Most of the time, sad to say, it is not the same thing that the Bible says. I also ask, "If you were to die today, are you 100% sure that you would go to heaven?". Again, sad to say, most of the time the answer is they are less than 100% sure.
We need more people knocking on doors who know what the Bible says about salvation. Christ is the Son of God, born of a virgin, died on the cross to pay for our sins, was buried and was raised the third day and is in heaven seated at the right hand of His Father. We need more people to spread this news that if we confess our sins to Christ, ask for forgiveness and repent for our sins, and ask Christ to be our Savior that we are made new creatures - and best of all - that Christ is coming back for us so we also may be in Heaven with Him and therefore escape the wrath of God and all the things that will come upon this earth.
If you believe these truths, are you knocking on doors? Are you spreading the gospel even if you are unable to knock on doors? Do you show the gospel in the way you live your lives? Do people who don't know you able to tell you are a child of God when they meet you?

It's good to hear your enthusiasm about the gospel. May it be central to everything else in our lives. It's great to take the gospel to all peoples and plead with them to respond in faith in the sacrifice of Christ. Stay bold, "for God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and love and self-control. Therefore, do not be ashamed of the testimony of the Lord."
Thanks for the encouaging words. Often comments are not so encouraging. It is easily to get discouraged, but we are dedicated to not letting lack of support from others sway us from doing what God has called us to do. Pray for us as we knock on doors. Pray that hearts are soft and prepared to receive the Word of God. Progress is slow when there are so few to go with us.
