When are you going to tell your mates about Jesus? When are you going to invite that guy at college to your next youth meeting? Here is what some of the adults do. They read all they can read about Jesus so that if they get asked any questions they will know the answers. They wait to invite their friends to Church until they have got it all together. They say things like one day when I know it all I will tell my friends about Jesus. The problem is that the one day they are waiting for will never come. The problem is that they are focussing on what they know rather then focussing on Jesus. Now I know that we would never miss the point like that, would we? After all, Paul is telling us in this passage that he got straight on with the job of befriending people and letting them know about Jesus before he knew anything. Now if a guy who used to Murder Christians one day, could turn around and tell people about Jesus the next day, then maybe we can too. Maybe if we get on with the job of telling people about Jesus then maybe, just maybe the adults will catch on too.
