SACRIFICE SOMETHING FOR SOMEONE TO BE SAVED
John 3:16
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son,
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son,
This is the scripture that majority, if not all Christians can quote but do we actually understand what it means?.
God needed to sacrifice Jesus for you and I to be saved . Peter had to give up his occupation and this is the same for the other disciples of Jesus. Elisha had to give up his father's farm, Abraham had to give up his home, father's business, country and parents.
Moses had to sacrifice his fame, authority, position and finance.
The early Christian church even had to sacrifice their lives just for someone, including you and I to be saved. People have and are still sacrificing many things in their lives for people to be saved because we are here for only a while. I had to sacrifice my family, work, education, empty my bank account several times, giving out my savings, sacrificed my happiness and many more just for other people to be saved.
And am happy i did all this and still doing it.

Now what have you SACRIFICED for someone to be saved?
Is it your TIME, MONEY, POPULARITY, FAMILY, BUSINESS, EDUCATION, PROPERTY etc.
JESUS said anyone who tries to save his life will lose it but those who lose their life or anything for His sake will have it in abundance.
Welcome to our Generation where we have forgotten about our Father's business which is winning souls to His kingdom and we have focused on our interest and personal gains . Let me quickly remind you this; WE ARE HERE FOR ONLY A WHILE.

God is tired of begging some people.
Before you were born again or a serious christian they begged you. Now, before you even give in church or to God you still need God to beg you before you do it.
These attitudes need to stop. Don't wait for God to beg you to sacrifice something for someone to be saved.
