God blessed me yesterday with an opportunity to witness. I've been challenging myself to witness weekly and as long as I've been writing this blog, by God's grace it is working so far.
The key is really to make time for it in your schedule and turn any openings you find in conversations with people towards God.
Yesterday I was in a car with a Buddhist friend of mine who comes for life group but is reluctant to stay during discussion. So she comes for life group but never hears the gospel preached.
From my experience, one important facet of sharing the gospel to Buddhists, Muslims or people from other faiths is to first ask them about their faith and be genuinely interested in their faith.
Which is exactly what I did last night. When the time came my friend was fully ready to hear what I had to share about the work and person of Jesus Christ. I brought up the Lewis' Trilemma argument. I didn't have time to go further but I believe I did it right last night with the opportunity that presented itself. Praise God.
Buddhists can be really nice and moral people. But let us not fall into the trap of admiring their morality lest we forget that they are still sinners.
For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. Romans 3:23
Let us remember that all have sinned and all sin is despicable to a holy and righteous God.
