Burdened...

As Christians, we are to keep a burden for sinners. Sometimes it can be someone close to us as well. You want to tell them about Jesus, what he has done for you, what he has brought for you, and most importantly, that he CAN save them. I know it can be tough finding words and verses to tell them that will plant the seed of conviction in them that will eventually lead them to accepting Christ. A good knowledge (some) of the bible is something that can help to no end in situations like this. Romans road is one of the common ways that you can use through scripture to lead someone to accepting Christ. If you want a burden for someone you love, imagine them, and read this verse in the bible :

Luke 16:23 - And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.

He closed his eyes in death, and lifted them in hell. If you truly care for someone, and their soul is of your concern, you will be burdened for them when you read this. Around 200,000 people die every day from various causes and surely you don't want your friends, family, people you work with, church family, or anyone else you care for to die and go to hell.

I don't mean to offend anyone with this post, but I want to assure you that hell is a real place that sinners who die without Christ go every single day. I have people on my heart that when I see how they live and how they believe, it pains me to think that they are on the road straight to eternal torment when salvation is a free gift that keeps them from burning.

Hebrews 9:27 - And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgement...

All honor and glory to the Lord
Amen
