Are you a watchman Christian?

* Luis Alberto Alves

It is celebrated the passage from the book of Isaiah, where the prophet speaks of the duty watchman announcing the good news to the captives. It also highlights the importance of speaking of the Lord's love to the slaves of sin. If that person refuses to listen and dying, her blood will not be charged this watchtower, since the opposite can happen.

The problem is that few wish to take the watchman station. Just want the blessings, work to speak of the Lord's love is relegated. It leech Christian. Only pays attention to the words that can help you win benefits. Uses God as a bargain.

Jesus Christ called us to be watchtower. Get into the gap and announce that only the Son of God is sure of eternal salvation. Other options are mistakes, false propaganda. But few people understand this counsel of the Lord. They prefer to grow old sitting in the pews.

Many Christians refuse to take positions in the church. From the simplest, such as caring for children or even receive the brothers at the door with beautiful smile. The interesting thing for them is to find mechanisms to fatten the bank account and live eternal happiness. They are mistaken.
