Its pretty fun watching someone new discover the desire to see the lord change there heart. I have had the priveledge to do this with a friend of mine and all I can say is that it gives you alot of hope and faith. I can see jesus doing his work in his heart. I really want to see us move into an apostolic group of people. I find myself always pushing to see if they can start stepping out into evangelizing to there co-workers and unsaved friends. I think this is partly because that is part of who I am, but also because I really want to see the harvest. What would it look like if everything we did was geared toward the lost. The body of christ has so much time and resources spent on making believers grow. What would happen if we spent that same energy on bringing in the harvest. I really think that we can be really effective by taking the people without out alot of theology and just get them on fire with one message, the gospel. Then we can send them out to preach that message alone. Everything else the holy spirit can build within loveing relationship, confession of sin, and digesting major ammounts of the word. I really believe that paul did not spend alot of time getting new believers ready to preach the gospel. I believe the power of the holy spirit made their salvation so real that they were absolutely on fire to tell others about how jesus forgave them of there sins and saved them from hell..
