Cross Talk

Today, as we continue to Prepare 90 Days for Easter (P90E), we read Matthew 24 and I Corinthians 1.10-18.

It is not how much you know, how well educated you are, or how powerful your words are.   I believe in continuing to learn, getting a good education, and being careful what you say, however, being God-led in your words or actions is even more crucial...and more effective.   Paul, a very educated man who continued to learn and spoke powerful words, said in I Corinthians 1.17- For Christ did not send me to baptize but to preach the gospel, and not with words of eloquent wisdom, lest the cross of Christ be emptied of its power.

Talk of the cross, Gospel-oriented conversation, Christ-exalting language is more effective and  life-changing than your knowledge of current events or your ability to spout out big words.  Speak Jesus and you will see lives effected.

Do it in wisdom with good lingual skills and with great examples, but don't waver away from the cross.  Speak Jesus today.
