Philemon 1: 6 says, "I pray that you may be ACTIVE in sharing your faith, so that you will have a full understanding of every good thing we have in Christ."
The word "active" comes from the greek word "energes" which means to be active, effectual, or powerful. This makes complete sense when you look at the word, becuse it is where the word "energy" comes from. So one could say that we should be actively & powerfully sharing our faith, and be effectual in doing so.
Have you been "active" in sharing your faith or do you not consider it a priority at all in your life? If so, are you being effectual? If not, what do you think you have to do to change?
Also, how active should we be? Should we ever give up?
