Yes, the goal is to reach souls; <br />but at what further cost? <br />Unacceptable is using fear as mind control <br />for reaching those considered 'lost'. <br /> <br />When not as an example of victorious living, <br />the principles of God appear to lose credibility. <br />If not demonstrating a God that's loving, <br />then appeal of the Kingdom lacks desirability. <br /> <br />To berate skeptical souls with Hell's threat <br />will deliberately cause immediate offense. <br />Salvation is not a game with souls to bet - <br />Offer encouragement to get off the lukewarm fence. <br /> <br />Our responsibility is to share Salvation's plan, <br />not forcing people to immediately decide. <br />We are to be God's vessel to reach Man <br />and not propagate the Eternal Divide.<br /><br />Joseph James Breunig 3rd<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/b-font-color-0000cc-danger-of-zealous-fervor-font-b/
