“Since we are not saved by works, why can’t I maintain a relationship with God without witnessing?”

This is an honest question. Here is the problem. We know that we are saved because the fruit of God’s Spirit will begin manifesting through us. God is love; therefore, we should be filled with love if we have been truly saved (see Rom. 5:5). Think of this scenario. You are in Africa. A child is lying on the ground in front of you starving to death. You have food in your hand. You know God wants you to share the food with the dying child. So the question is, “Why can’t I have a good relationship with God, without sharing the food?” You have to answer that yourself.

Proverbs 10:21 The lips of the righteous feed many, But fools die for lack of wisdom.

    Think of this scenario Ray. You have a lot of money. You know there are many people living in squalor and poverty in the world. You know God wants you to share your money with the poor. So the question is “Why can’t you have a relationship with God without sharing all you have?”

    If you have to ask THAT question, you need to read the Bible a lot more! Human dignity has a price, are we willing to pay it?

    CjMartel if you make that sort of remark then obviously, to quote you, you need to read the bible a lot more. Jesus instructed the rich man to sell all that he had and give it to the poor. Ray is wealth so time for him to start obeying Jesus.
