"Food for Thought" - 2 Timothy 4:1,2, "In the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who will judge the living and the dead, and in view of his appearing and his kingdom, I give you this charge: Preach the Word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage--with great patience and careful instruction." It was important for Timothy to preach the gospel so that the Christian faith could spread throughout the world. We believe in Jesus today because people like Timothy were faithful to their mission. It is still vitally important for the church to preach the gospel. Half the people who have ever lived are alive today, and most of them do not know Jesus. He is coming soon, and He wants to find a faithful church waiting for Him. It may be inconvenient to take a stand for Jesus or to tell others about His love, but preaching the Word of God is the most important responsibility the church has been given. Be prepared, courageous, and sensitive to God-given opportunities to tell the Good News of Jesus Christ to others that need Him as their personal Savior.
