today in churh i learned that if you know everything in the bible i mean like front to back , but you do not share what you know with others than your knowledge is useless...also if you do not truely know who jesus is then there is point as to obtaining this knowledge....it was said today in churh that everyone should spread the news about god/jesus before it is too late; before it is not permitted rather we be restrained physically or by law....i think that every christian should agree w/ this but i just want to know what you think

Absolutely! Us Christians were put on this earth for a purpose. We need to go out and spread the love of Jesus, prophecy over strangers, and be persecuted for our faith. I ABSOLUTELY agree with your pastor.

I agree with tell people... "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature"...we should live what we profess.
BUT there's always a benefit in learning about things in the bible (reading it) because that knowledge sticks with you, so... even if you reject it, right then, you maybe turn to it another time.
I don't agree that we will ever be restricted in sharing the bible with others in North America, I think we will be ruptured before that time time comes, note in Revelation the church isn't mentioned after Chap 3 vs 14, and just after to that John is commanded to "Come up hither..." in verse 1 of Revelation chapter 4.
I don't believe God's wrath is for His people.
Blessings! =)

Every person is created by God. Even Satan. Satan was so rebellious that he disobeyed God. And what he does now, is making people believed and blinded by his will so that people may worship what Satan's will rather than the original and real creator our God. The logic is, people are here on Earth to spread love as per the bible, correct people of wrong way, fight Satan and obey God. Many people are so pathetic they dont know this and we must help them because like us, they are from God, lets bring them back to God. Share what is good so it may not be useless, this is Gods will. Share the love.

yes we are to share Christ, and His Word with others- just reading the Bible means nothing- however I think that it really begins with us obeying the Word in all aspects of our life. If we share the knowledge and not live the knowledge people will not want to know the Christ we know.

I don't agree that your knowledge is useless ... if you have that much knowledge of God's word, you will surely apply at least some of it to your own life. That's a benefit in and of itself, no?
Sharing your knowledge can be done simply by living a godly life

There are many in this world that know the Bible from front to back, but it is the true disciple of Christ that LIVES the Bible. Go out into the world, and be a shining example of God's love and your faith. Without speaking a word, you are giving one of the most powerful sermons ever given.

We are supposed to share according to the Bible. Just look at the countries who do not permit sharing Christ.
You can be killed for trying to share in middle eastern countries. And India has its radical Hindus, who kill and there are gangs of Buddists who attack Christians as well as the Muslims. Also many Jews do not want people talking to them about Christ.

People in China and the Middle east are persecuted FOR preaching the good news in today's world.
The question is more:
would you preach Jesus under persecution fire?
How much love you have for Jesus will show...

I agree with most of it. If you don't share what you know, the knowledge you've gained from the Bible is still useful to you. So I wouldn't call it useless. But we are commanded to share our faith and we should.

I agree. As a follower of Christ your greatest work is making disciples! Spreading the Word and being Christ-Like. I know very good people that make this their daily sacrifice!!! I surrender my all to doing this as well.
