Sermon #587
As Christians, we know that we are called to evangelize. Jesus gives us the Great Commission in Matthew 28, to go make disciples of all nations. What is so intimidating for Christians in this post-modern world is that we are often afraid that we don't know enough to debate someone into believing in Jesus Christ. But what we see in today's reading from John is that we don't need to have all the answers to all the objections. We simply have to say to people, "Come and see for yourself." And when they encounter Christ for themselves, they find themselves invited into a saving relationship with Jesus, and it's an invitation that is impossible to resist.
John 1:43-51
