Hi John and Doves,


I really enjoyed this Living Waters video clip. The simplicity of the message. It's proof positive that we are beginning to see through a glass less darkly. This will have many Christians clutching their pearls and swooning with shock - but the truth is that our Almighty God requires us to be spiritually mature. Not doing things by rote.


There is much to be said for doing the sinners prayer and/or the ABC's of salvation. Hugely commendable. But, as scripture tells us - we can plant the seed but only God can make it grow. Our duty is to share the gospel. Lots of people find this intimidating and difficult because we have been taught that we have to "close the sale" by urging the listener to recite the sinners prayer etc. This is not necessary at all. Simply planting the seed is enough. Almighty God will take it from there.....or not. It is way beyond our pay grade to expect to "close the sale".


People can recite the sinners prayer, but we cannot guarantee that they mean it. Only God knows people's hearts.
