If people are free to post whatever they like or whatever the board allows then the best method of preaching is to present the full picture. Whatever it takes? That is what I will do.Anyone is free to post whatever they like or whatever the board allows, I'm just commenting that the likely best way to get someone to read what you post is to, at most, post a medium sized post, maybe 3-4 paragraphs, and include links to whatever it is you are discussing.
Just my observation over the years, take it or toss it.
For Stalin I think this is a non-issue. He died long ago. Putin is relevant but there is no real threat to the US or it's allies. Bluster doesn't equal real threat.
The souls of men are at stake here. The value of one soul is worth more than all the universe combined. If by reading this thread even one person were to decide to follow Jesus Christ and abandon whatever sins they are living in right now......it would be more than worth it.
We cannot know how many people will read this thread. The thread shows 502 views at this writing. I have not posted 502 posts on this thread, Newton. There are a total of 60 posts on this thread including this one I am writing right now. I'm sure I posted the majority of those posts as I was posting the necessary material to inform the reader and responded to some of the inquiries. That leaves over 400 views which means that someone is reading this thread. And here is what the Word of God tells us about those who read the Scriptures -even as posted in this thread:
It is written:
So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
Romans 10:17
It is written:
So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.
Isaiah 55:11
What does this mean? It means that wherever the Gospel of Jesus Christ is preached, wherever the Word of God is spoken and those seeds of faith are planted - it will not return back void unto God but it will perform the work it was sent to do. What is that work? To save the souls of men who are presently condemned. To save the souls of any sinner who would call upon the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and be saved. This is why the Gospel of Jesus Christ is called, "The Good News."
The most vile sinner can be forgiven. Communists, atheists, Satanists, Witches, Warlocks, Wizards, Witch Doctors, Hindus, Muslims, Paedophiles, Marxists (Socialists), Buddhists, Catholics, Pharisees, Saducees, unbelieving Jews, Mormons, Jehovah Witnesses, Agnostics........ANYONE.
It is written:
For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
Romans 10:13
And what must the laborer do? Jesus said:
I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.
John 9:4
And so the people of God must pray to the Lord of the harvest to send more laborers as He told us to:
It is written:
Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few; Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest.
Matthew 9: 37,38
And what can be said for those who try to hinder the laborers?
It is written:
He that is not with me is against me; and he that gathereth not with me scattereth abroad.
Matthew 12:30
