Sharing Our Faith is a brief presentation of the gospel message using God’s words as presented in the book, Jesus Christ, Why. It is designed to help others share with someone the gospel message. You may give the book to the person to read as well. There are many formats for sharing one’s faith. God has placed this format on my heart.

Sharing Christ becomes a part of our relationship with Him. When you meet someone in love, he/she wants to talk about the loved one. As we grow in our love relationship with the Lord, we want to tell people about Him. The Apostle Paul, in Colossians 4:6, encourages us to do it with grace and salt.

“Let your speech always be with grace, seasoned, as it were, with salt, so that you may know how you should respond to each person” (Colossians 4:6, NASB).

God’s grace saves people. The power of the gospel message is in God’s words. It is through God’s Spirit that people are drawn to the Lord. We are to be ready to explain what we believe. It is not our job to convince people or make them understand. God does the work in the heart.

As salt, we encourage people to thirst for the Lord. Salty food creates a thirst. We want to use words that create a thirst for God in the hearers. The best words to use are God’s words.

As we share, pray. We have done our part by presenting it. It is God’s part to convict and bring to faith. Pray that God will do just that with those you share. God will be using you in the lives of others.

Grace to you and peace from God, our Father, and our Lord Jesus Christ.
