Mark 8:38, “Whosoever therefore shall be ashamed of me
and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation; of him also shall the
Son of man be ashamed, when he cometh in the glory of his Father with the holy
angels.”
Today is
the 23rd of December.
Everyone is advertising that there are ONLY two more shopping days until
Christmas! What
would happen if we as Christian musicians were that open and showed that same
kind of urgency about people knowing our Lord Jesus Christ? What impact would it have on those around us
if we were to tell them that there is ONLY two more days for you to find our
precious Lord as your personal Savior if you are going to truly have a personal
relationship with Him this Christmas? It
is time for Christians to take Christ with us to the public arena.
During
the Christmas season Christian musicians have a wonderful opportunity to take
the good news of the gospel to those who are basically unchurched. Everyone is out shopping and they are not
surprised or offended when they hear singing at public places. Matthew, Mark, and Luke all instruct
Christians to “go ye” St. Matthew specifically states, “Go ye therefore, and
teach all nations…” Every time I go into
a shopping mall during the Christmas season I am impressed at the diversity of
cultures and nationalities that are represented there. Christian musician you should
find some public venue where you can sing and play about the Good News of
Christ’s comings to “all nations”.
