Take Time With God #106 – How to share Christ with your friends


Ray says leading people to Christ is a lot easier than it might seem. Right now he will give you some great tips from Colossians 4:2-6.


 


 Devote yourselves to prayer, keeping alert in it with an attitude of thanksgiving; praying at the same time for us as well, that God will open up to us a door for the word, so that we may speak forth the mystery of Christ, for which I have also been imprisoned; that I may make it clear in the way I ought to speak.


[a]Conduct yourselves with wisdom toward outsiders, [b]making the most of the opportunity. Let your speech always be [c]with grace, as though seasoned with salt, so that you will know how you should respond to each person.

SCOTLAND"S VOTE WILL DECIDE TWO COUNTRIES FUTURE NEWS/PICS


England’s Prime Minister David Cameron pleading in Aberdeen, Scotland






Will ISIL attack England or America?












Pray for the Scottish people to make the right decision


TEXT OF ORIGINAL REPORT POSTED EARLIER TODAY


One of President Barack Obama’s very closest friends may be losing his job sometime shortly after tomorrow if Scotland votes itself independence from the Queen. Knowing that, his friend Prime Minister David Cameron, greatly humbled himself today before the Scots in Aberdeen, and while fighting off tears he begged the Scots to stay loyal to what has been until now their mother country


Mister Cameron said “Don’t think that you’re frustrated with politics right now, so you’ll walk out the door and never come back. If you don’t like me, I won’t be here forever. If you don’t like this government, it won’t last forever. But if you leave the UK, that will be forever.”


President Obama made a call from the White House to also urge the nation of Scotland to remain part of a united Britain. He said he wanted the UK to remain “strong, robust, united, and an effective partner.”


There have been few times in history that the relationship between England and America so desperately needs to remain strong . Cameron has awakened only very recently to the dangers of radical Islam and has pledged to unite with America in wiping out ISIL. All that would almost certainly change in a heartbeat if England came under a new administration. With Cameron toppled from office, England would be far more vulnerable to the terrorist threats.


Cameron also said to the people of Aberdeen “For the people of Scotland to walk away now would be like painstakingly building a home and then walking out the door and throwing away the keys. Head and heart and soul, we want you to stay. To warn of the consequences is not to scare-monger. It is like warning a friend about a decision they might take that will affect the rest of their lives, and the lives of their children.


I say all this because I don’t want the people of Scotland to be sold the dream that disappears. So as you reach your final decision , please, please, don’t let anyone tell you that you can’t be a proud Scot and a proud Brit. For me it’s simple. You don’t get the change you want by ripping your country apart. You don’t get change you want by undermining your economy and damaging your businesses and diminishing your place in the world.”


Right now, Scotland is a country divided against itself. The vote in every poll shows that it will be “too close to call.” The future of nations hangs in the balance. Pray for the Scottish people to have God’s wisdom as they vote.
