Berean Call
Apples of Gold - March 20
We should be as wise as we can, and certainly we should be loving and kind. But that is not the key to winning others. If it were, Jesus Christ would have won the world of His day and would not even have been crucified. No one was more patient and loving and kind and understanding than He. Yet they hated Him without a cause and crucified Him. He says very clearly that the servant is not greater than his Lord and that the world will hate us just as it hated Him. The only thing that will win people to Christ is God’s truth. They must become lovers of Truth. They must have a passion for Truth. If not, all of our love and patience and building bridges in whatever ways we conceive will not win them to Christ.
"Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves." —Matthew 10:16

Gwendolyn Wehage said: Amen, Amen, If anyone says to you that we must say things the right way so they will be accepted, remind them of what Christ and the apostles went through when the people killed them. Did they not say things the right way? Of course they did because they said them through the power of the Holy Spirit.
