Pet Peeve--The Christian Version

Pet Peeve–The Christian Version

People don’t “win souls for Christ”.

God may use you to get some message across to someone. But the Holy Spirit does the heavy lifting.

Amen, hallelujah, and pass the ammunition! =]

Katherine,
Amen. And just in case this was directed toward my line about ‘winning people to Christ’ in my post, I intended to use that language based on the attitude and language of the people the letter was addressing.

Amen again.

Thanks for the comment too!

Your post made me think of it, true. But I took your post for exactly what it was–a denouncement of that particular mindset.

Amen, Kat!!! We are strictly seed-sowers. We throw the seed out there (hopefully on fertile soil, and not in the rocks), the Holy Spirit does the watering, and God does the reaping.

that whole mindset devalues God and over-inflates egos. hate it.

So do I. Why can’t people realize (that’s me included) that we’re nada without God?
