My Conversation with You?


If you and I were to have a conversation regarding how things are in the world - perhaps it would go something like this ...

Me:
"Tell me, what do you think of society today and its youngsters?"
You:
"I think some need a good talking to. A few have got out of hand."

Me:
"Do you think that times have changed for the better or for the worse?"
You:
"Most youngsters today haven't experienced too much hardship. They tend to take a lot for granted and expect us old 'uns to accept it."

Me:
"How do you view the church?"
You:
"Oh, you know how it is. Church is all right for weddings, christenings and funerals, but other than that it's a waste of time."

Me:
"Do you have any belief in God? "
You:
"Sometimes I think there must be someone "up there" and at other times I think no, life is what you make of it yourself."

Me:
"If I were to tell you that you need a Saviour, what would your reaction be?"
You:
"Why do I need a Saviour?"

Me:
"The Bible says you need a Saviour to set you free from sin and its consequences."
You:
"Are you telling me that I'm a sinner?"

Me:
"Well, the Bible does make it clear that we have all sinned and have come short of the glory of God."
You:
"But I haven't done anyone any harm. I've been a good person."

Me:
"Well maybe. But you see, what is good in our own estimation isn't always good in God's. That's why He wants us to accept Jesus into our lives."
You:
"Why? What can Jesus do for me?"

Me:
"Well actually, He has already done it! When He died on the cross He paid the price for your sin and my sin! Now He offers us peace, an assurance of sins forgiven and a place for all eternity with Him.
Thanks for your time.
I hope I've given you something to think about!"


Here is a simple prayer you could use to ask Jesus to forgive you:

You:
Jesus I know that I have sinned and I acknowledge how I cannot do anything to pay the price of my sin.
I realise that the life I am living without You is not life at all.
I open the door of my heart, come in Lord Jesus and forgive my sin.
I know you died to pay the price of my sin. I now receive you as my Saviour and my Friend.
Amen.
