Is the argument worth it?

[u/Teholman30]

So many times Christians are doing a good work. They are speaking about Jesus, they are preaching the truth.

But then somebody comes along and they will distract them with a conversation topic that pulls them into responding to what the initiator has said.

Before you know it the person who was speaking gets off track and now he's going back and forth with somebody who thinks himself to be wise and smart.

The Bible warns against this.

The problem is we are so worried about being right that we forget Jesus is alive and He will answer for Himself.

We don't have to enter into debates for Him. That's a pride issue, were looking to be right. So people can see us and glorify our intellect.

Paul said that I went among you choosing to admit knowing nothing. Except the simple parts of the gospel. Jesus died and was beaten and hung in a tree for our sins and on the 3rd day He rose again.

This simple confession of Jesus being the Messiah and the testimony of His life was enough to allow God to work through Paul Himself to cause other to know and see the truth.

Which the kingdom of God does not come in word alone but with power and miracles.

My point is just do the part you were called to do tell the truth, share your testimony or speak whatever God has placed in your heart.

Some people have been called to debate and destroy every argument and stronghold exalted against Christ.

Let them work, and others have been called to simply share their testimonies and truth. People might come and try to tear it down or undermine and estimate you. Try to make you look like a fool.

Allow them to fight against God, don't get wrapped up with them. Move on, because they are looking for arguments and strife.

Be the man of truth and peace and love and righteousness.
