What about them?

January 13, 2008

So many times I have tried to tell people about Jesus and they stop me. They try to say, 'what about the people in a third world country that have never heard about Jesus?' Now Eliahu speaking to Job had some wise advice, probably the only wise thing he had to say:

Job 36:17 NET
(17) But now you are preoccupied with the judgment due the wicked,
judgment and justice take hold of you.

When people bring up that question if you witness to them, you have an answer now.

It can also apply to our day to day life. Have you ever got in to an argument with someone and said, God, why are you blessing them after what they did to me, how they sinned against me? Well, you too are preoccupied with the wicked. Get your eyes off of that relationship and get your eyes on God. What God does with someone else is his business not yours. How he deals with you if your business.
