Friend6:58*pm
****theyre good people
*Joshua 6:59pm
****sure
****i dont doubt that
*Joshua 6:59pm
****but what would they say if you told them the truth about Christ
****what would they say if you told them the truth about the Church’s teaching
****you dont have to
*Joshua 7:02pm
****who can be happy without Christ?
****i just feel bad that so many people dont know Him
****its like my best friend Stephen
****i feel bad that so many people never got to know him
****Jesus asks us to share Him with the whole world
****and we are afraid to do so
*Joshua 7:04pm
****but we know how much Jesus can make anyone happy
****no one can make someone more happy than God can
****but do we really believe this with all of our being?
****or do we doubt
****do we really have the faith that this is true
****if we believe that only God can make one happy, and that Jesus is God, then we know that only Jesus can make one truly happy
****and if we really want someone to be happy, why are we afraid to share Jesus with them?
*Joshua 7:07pm
****why should we assume that they will be more happy without Jesus?
****its not about people going to Hell
****its about “How much do we really love someone and how happy do we want them to be?”
Friend7:07*pm

*Joshua 7:08pm
****im just kind of working some of this through
Friend7:08*pm

*Joshua 7:08pm
****becuz it is not always through talking that we share Jesus with others
****these people know we are Christians
****they know we believe that Jesus is God
****we dont have to say this over and over again
****they know it
Friend7:09*pm
****nope sometimes its listening
*Joshua 7:09pm
****they know we are Christians, so then how do we treat them
****are we the ones who come to their aid when no one else will
****are we the ones who ask them if they are ok when they look sad
****are we the ones who show them that they mean something and who are totally dedicated to them being fulfilled and happy
****God takes care of the rest
*Joshua 7:11pm
****He is the eternal Word, we are just syllables
