Do you God believers agree with this : why or why not :
Matthew 9:34-38
Jesus visited not only the great and wealthy cities, but the poor, obscure villages; and there he preached, there he healed. The souls of the meanest in the world are as precious to Christ, and should be so to us, as the souls of those who make the greatest figure. There were priests, Levites, and scribes, all over the land; but they were idol shepherds, Zec 11:17; therefore Christ had compassion on the people as sheep scattered, as men
perishing for lack of knowledge. To this day vast multitudes are as sheep not having a shepherd, and we should have compassion and do all we can to help them.

As a Christian - why do you think he is not already doing this every day, every hour, every minute, every second? Don't you think it might be arrogance on your part to be thinking others have not already received his message and are choosing to live as they want? Did he call you to share this story or are you choosing being driven my your ego because you believe you know "the way" or you know "the right way" to do this? You may be right to do so, but always remember that if you choose to bring this message to others to be of best behavior as it is said Jesus was or your message will be lost on others. As it was, according to the New Testament, even Jesus failed to convince all - remember that you need to turn the other cheek. If you cannot do that then you cannot assume to walk the path of he who was called Jesus.
Good Luck!!!

Tell your dog. It's a fact that too many canines are not familiar with the story of Christ and many, (although not all funny enough) will sit patiently while you diatribe endlessly about the wonderful story of Christ getting the craps beat out him and all that jazz. Go try it today and if you don't own a dog yourself try it on a neighbors dog!

It is the task of the Church to follow the example that Christ set.

I think we need to share it with every one but I know many will not listen.

Share it with anyone, just don't make a nuisance of yourself, which is what most Christians manage to do.

So you won't be tempted to think an atheist reported this sermon,
It was me. A pagan.

I think you should leave people alone and stop bothering them with your faerie tale.
