Of course, it’s the Lord who must turn the switch in their souls from “off” to “on.” Nobody can cry their way into the Kingdom. They must be born again. That comes only through faith in Christ.
But it’s our job to do our best to convey the truth as effectively and persuasively as possible, trusting in the Lord to do what only He can do: actually save the lost soul.
So, I challenge you to share the Gospel with passion and emotion. Appeal to the heart and to the mind. Set forth the truth plainly and, in the words of Jesus, “compel them to come in” (Luke 14:23).
Some things are worth getting emotional about.
