Good morning, Friends, This is Michael De Rosa and today I want to talk with you on witnessing. My text is Matthew 10:16, which reads:
Behold, I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves; so be shrewd as serpents and innocent as doves
In our society today, the Christian faith is being attacked in a variety of sectors, and while it has not been easy to navigate these accusations, God’s Word, here, gives some general guidelines to bear in mind as we face our accusers.
First, be alert. To know how to respond. Be shrewd. Recognize if the individual who is confronting your faith is sincerely questioning your position or if he is wanting to be confrontational regardless of your response.
Secondly, be forthright, and sincere in addressing the error in their argument, while taking care to continue to respect the individual who is voicing the accusation.
And while our interactions and words may not be accepted, when we do this, we can walk away knowing that we did well, and that God bless will this as He sees fit.
