Officer SOE/LoE/Where's "here"?
I think I scared off two old lady Jehovah's Witness this morning instead of witnessing to them. First of all they woke me up when the furry doorbells went off. Not knowing what is going on I hustle to the door in my pjs, which consist of a swim suit and a tshirt which looks like it lost a battle with a hoard of rabid moths. Open the door a little and littlest doorbell runs out and starts her "Hi, Hi, Hi new friends" act. I see the Watch tower magazine and my heart sinks, "Lord I absolutely cannot witness to these two right now." So there I stand breathing morning dragon breath on them, mumbling around my splint, "Not right now thank you." I wrestle the dog back in as they turn around to leave, and I am still wondering how they ever found this place, or even had the courage to come up this ratty drive that seems to go nowhere. The question is, would you have tried to witness to them? Or been real rude? Is this what the scripture written towards?
I will give them credit, they did not screech and run when this apparition with a hyper active dog answered the door.
2 Timothy 4:1-4
New King James Version (NKJV)
Preach the Word
4 I charge you therefore before God and the Lord Jesus Christ, who will judge the living and the dead at[a] His appearing and His kingdom: 2 Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching. 3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers; 4 and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables.
