“Other people tell us”
After Paul, Silas, and Timothy visited Thesslonika they traveled south to Corinth. Apparently many from Thessalonika had preceded them, because the city was abuzz with the news of new Thessalonikan followers of Christ.
What do others say about your life and about your faith in Jesus Christ? Do others know what you believe and where your hopes allegiance lie? We certainly don’t want to bludgeon people with our version of the Gospel, but sharing the Gospel must be more than deeds. Although our desire should be that something about our lives should be irresistible because God is irresistible, people also need to hear words within the context of genuine friendship.
What part of my interaction with others outside the faith speaks of my love of God and my hope that others can come to know and love Him too?
