Lesson Theme: What else can I do to share the gospel?
If Jesus taught that they were in the last days, how much MORE so does the day approach that our Savior will return?!?
There are many Christians who relegate their witnessing to a specific scheduled time slot… Others take advantage of every single opportunity as the Lord sends it. But what if there were yet even MORE ways to share the gospel?!?
There are many shining examples of this in the community in which I work. One lady built a public prayer chapel in her front yard (she lives along a very well traveled highway) and paid to have a large LED sign proclaiming Salvation is Only In Jesus! She witnesses to everyone who stops by, and keeps a careful prayer journal of those who give her a hearing.
A neighbor who lived a few miles down the road complained to me about the ‘light pollution’ her sign puts out on the evening sky. Funny, how could he notice when he spends his evenings streaming movies on his 55″ TV in his living room each night?!? I was under the direct impression that it was the message on the sign he may have had more of a problem with. When I asked him if this was the case, he quickly replied, “No, no. I like the message, but I just wish she could find something smaller or less intrusive. I think it offends people.”
… Isn’t this kind of like complaining about the light pollution of a lighthouse beacon?!? Why would any Christian wish to enjoy their ‘storm’ in peace?!?

“No man, when he hath lighted a candle, putteth it in a secret place, neither under a bushel, but on a candlestick, that they which come in may see the light.”
