“that we should bring forth fruit unto God. ” Romans 7:4

The Bible says that Christ died for us and if we have accepted him as our savior he wants us to “bring forth fruit unto God”. Why do some get offended by this truth in the Word of God? The same reason we all get offended at things in the Word of God. We know it will require sacrifice and work on our part to make it happen. It takes work to make fruit come out of the ground. As we have found with our raspberries. It takes work, time and effort, at first you might not get a great harvest of fruit but if you keep working on it eventually you yield a great reward. The same thing is true for soul winning, it takes work and at first as you begin to share your faith you might not have the right words, but as you work at it you grow and learn. God works in your life, if you study the Bible daily as you go verses will come to mind to help you to know what is right and wrong to say. God is faithful and gives his promises “let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not. ” Galatians 6:9 and “He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves [with him]. ” Psalm 126:6. Just remember it is “God that giveth the increase.” 1 Corinthians 3:7. The glory goes to God! God is pleased with servants that will stand for truth.

“The fruit of the righteous [is] a tree of life; and he that winneth souls [is] wise. ” Proverbs 11:30

“Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.” 1 Corinthians 2:9
