1 John 5:9-10 (MSG) If we take human testimony at face value, how much more should we be reassured when God gives testimony as He does here, testifying concerning His Son. Whoever believes in the Son of God inwardly confirms God’s testimony. Whoever refuses to believe in effect calls God a liar, refusing to believe God’s own testimony regarding His Son.
We’re living in a time where everything is seemingly acceptable. Whatever a person feels, thinks, and believes should be okay. As believers, who should be loving people, there’s one thing we shouldn’t give up on. That’s encouraging people to believe Jesus is the Son of God Who died for our sins (Rom. 10:9). We can’t make anyone believe, but we definitely should encourage them to believe.
Unbelief in that area has so many consequences. There’s living in lack, unfulfillment, no internal guide, no protection, no hope, and ultimately eternal damnation. If we truly love a person or people in general, we shouldn’t want them to experience those consequences. On top of all of those consequences, an unbeliever insults their Creator by calling Him a liar.
If we know a person who doesn’t believe, or if one comes across our path, let’s be bold enough to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ in a loving, non-condemning way.
