Have you noticed how much better we are together? We are commissioned by God to reach the world, and it is much easier when we do it together. As we strive for excellence individually, we have to remember that working with others of like belief, toward a goal, helps us achieve our goals more effectively. We need to stretch to reach out to others. We find it usually pretty easy to love other believers. We are not just called to love those who already know and love God, we are called to love those who haven’t found Christ yet.. Love cares about the destiny of others. We say it often and loudly that we want no one from our world to go to hell. We want to make it easy for them to get to heaven. When it comes to sharing the gospel, there is no more powerful tool than hospitality. From the Old Testament example of Abraham welcoming the 3 holy visitors, to Paul’s admonition in the New Testament, we are commanded to be hospitable. What comes naturally to some, is work for many, but should be a natural part of our lives as believers. Entertaining is different from hospitality. We are not inviting people over to impress them, or to make them feel obligated to reciprocate, but merely to show the love of God. It is a great way to make friendships and show acceptance to those who don’t know Christ yet. We are on this earth representing Jesus, and hospitality is a great way to get to know people, and to have them in a home filled with peace, so that the love of God in us, can draw them to the feet of Jesus. Invite them in!
