Let this sink in...
"We bear zero responsibility for how
people respond [to the gospel]. There is no strategy that is more able
to save a person than any other. A well-articulated argument is no more
or less effective in a person's coming to faith than the testimony of a
person who stutters and fails to string two sentences together well.
Why? Because we can't save anyone - ourselves or anyone else. We all
need Jesus to be our Savior. Our methods, our strategies, our arguments,
our personalities, our sermons, our concerts, our outreach events, and
our programs are not capable of bringing salvation to even one soul.
They never have been. It is Jesus, and only Jesus who saves. We must put
more faith in the gospel and less faith in our own methods. When you
put faith in a method, that faith is placed in something other than
Jesus." - Neil Cole, Viral
