Ha! Got you to click on it! Mwahahahaha ;)

Now that you're here (hehehe) what is your opinion on this sentence, "Preach the Gospel, If Necessary Use Words".

Note: Your opinion, in this case only, means tell me your thoughts on it BEFORE you look it up and yada yada.

Just type out what you first think about it! :)

hahaha you are a gem xD

I think that a lot of the time, actions speak louder than words. Actually, the vast majority of the time that is true. I know people who claim the name of Jesus like crazy with their mouth, but they are also all over their girlfriend, joking around about smoking weed, swearing like crazy, getting into fights, using God's name in vain...words are worthless if your actions do not line up.

Dude awesome joke. I think it means reprasent God by what you do.

I think my get to work post I made today and this sentence would go hand in hand.


Thirst - 11/22/11 @ 8:50 PM

It means that Christianity isn't a message, it's a lifestyle


Gabriella - 11/23/11 @ 6:58 AM

agree with Thirst!!

Don't tell people how they should be, show them. if they still don't get it, then tell them.

y'all are awesome!


For some reason these verses resonate loudly in my spirit in connection with this topic:

Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. - Hebrews 11:1

Indeed, our lives are guided by faith, not by sight. - 2 Cor 5:7

and 1 Cor 13:1-7
If I could speak all the languages of earth and of angels, but didn’t love others, I would only be a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. If I had the gift of prophecy, and if I understood all of God’s secret plans and possessed all knowledge, and if I had such faith that I could move mountains, but didn’t love others, I would be nothing. If I gave everything I have to the poor and even sacrificed my body, I could boast about it;a but if I didn’t love others, I would have gained nothing.
Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude. It does not demand its own way. It is not irritable, and it keeps no record of being wronged. It does not rejoice about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out. Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance.


one more: Matthew 7:16 "By their fruit you will know them..."

I know I asked you all to not do research on it, and you all hit every area I wanted to see. Thank you!

If you want, share a few scriptures about this, as I did, that speak to you about the topic. Do some research if you want!

Maybe God is speaking to you about these verses, and you can tie them together!
