I know we just had Halloween. But, no matter the season, we should make sure we’re Fall-o-ween Jesus.
And Fall-o-ween Jesus entails fishin’ in Christian missions.
Jesus announces the authoritative divine summons, and the disciples exemplify the appropriate human response. Christ the Redeemer requires radical commitment.
Negatively, we must repent – turning away from sin, one’s former way of life, and anything that comes between us and God -- including finances and family!
Positively, we must believe – that is, we must be faithful and loyal to Christ wholeheartedly. If we're following Christ, Christ comes first. The Prince of Peace is primary; everything else is secondary.
Truly dedicated disciples are not just Twitter followers who read a few of His words every once in a while… nor just Facebook fans who sometimes scroll through His good news feed… but people who feed others the Good News!
Once we’ve been fished into the faith, we should try to fish others. Those who have been caught by Christ should try to catch others.
Once we’ve been hooked by the Holy One, we should try to get somebody else a heavenly hook-up. And those who have submitted to the summons of the Savior should seek to persuade others to surrender.
We are witnesses of the Waymaker. Heralds of the Holy One. Couriers for Christ. We are the Master’s mouthpieces and messengers – authorized by the Almighty.
