Have you ever been witnessed too?
then thought that the persons actions speak much louder then what they said. I have.
Simple fact quit judging man by weight, race, tattoos, exc. Its not your job. Its Gods.
Consider for a moment what your actions say to others around you, other Christians , but more so the non Christians. If your actions are self absorbing, egocentric, narcissistic and cruel then are you really helping spread Gods amazing word?
Do you leave those cheesy verse tracs on the back of fake money? STOP! think about it.
IF you have worked 12 hrs at a below minimum wage job come out to bus a table and saw what you thought was a $20 on the table and you knew they had paid all ready. How would you feel? Now assume as you got to the end of your shift your counting your tips change and cash you open up that 20 and discover its not a tip but a piece of paper with a scripture on it. You think back thats the only tip on that table. You just destroyed the value to that person. Will they read it? probably not will they think of you negatively for this. yes. Will it effect their views on Christianity, Very likely Yes.
We have all been taught that their are other religious views. We dont have to agree with them. However our actions as Christians speak to those people as well. Think about it. If they see you stand before someone getting yelled at and you never raise your voice back and you simply keep calm and peaceful. That speaks to them. If they ask you , you can use this to share how God has given you the ability to remain at peace while others are in an uproar.
