What Would You Have Done?
I was asked a question earlier this week by a truck driver that made me stop and really think about what he asked. We were talking about the campus shooting in Oregon and he asked me "what would you have done?" He knows that I am a pastor. In fact he has a nickname for me. He calls me Rev. whenever he comes in. So he kind of knew what my answer would be. I told him of course I would admit that I am a Christian. Then I thought, would I? Having a gun pointed at you, knowing that you are going to die for admitting your faith. I have never had a weapon pointed at me before, so I really can't say for sure what I would do. I believe that I would say yes to being a Christian. It says in the Bible in Matthew 10:33 New King James Version (NKJV)33 But whoever denies Me before men, him I will also deny before My Father who is in heaven. The Apostle Peter also denied Jesus. Not once or twice, but three times when confronted with knowing him. I don't want to be that guy. I want to acknowledge my Savior and King. I want Him to know that I am His and He is mine! No matter what I come up against. No matter what kind of persecution that I may face, it will and has always been Jesus. So my question/challenge to you is.......What Would You Have Done? Think about it.
