The advertising agent
The advertising agent
Now, remember that. Each one of you, from tonight on, remember, you are God's billboards. And you're—you're God's advertising agent. Now, the world will look at you, to see what Christ is. So we don't want to smear a big lot of stuff on there, that testify about things that we really are not. Let's first be that. Then when we are that, then the world will see Christ in you and me.
II Corinthians 3:2
Ye are our epistle written in our hearts, known and read of all men:
Now, the only way that the world will ever see Christ is when he, they, see It in you and me. That's the only way they'll ever see Christ.
Their—their conscience are numb to the sunsets, to the call of the birds, to the leaves, and—and the grass, and the flowers; and the music, and the Message and so forth, that we enjoy after we have found Christ. But, until we get to a place that we display Christ! Now, remember that. Each one of you, from tonight on, remember, you are God's billboards. And you're—you're God's advertising agent. Now, the world will look at you, to see what Christ is. So we don't want to smear a big lot of stuff on there, that testify about things that we really are not. Let's first be that.
Then when we are that, then the world will see Christ in you and me. The first thing, that, any advertisement, the person has to see it. Then, the next thing, they have to want it. Now, if they see it and don’t want it, then that’s different. But you haven’t put a vain advertisement out. But if they, first, have got to see it, and then we’ve got to make it so attractive to them. Oh, I hope we see that, the attractiveness of salvation, what it does to the person. We’ve got to attract the world to Christ. And the Gospel does have an attractiveness. It has it to those who are hungering for God. It only attracts those who are hungering and thirsting, and that’s the ones we’re out for.
“No man can come to Me, except My Father draws him.” But there’s so many that the Father has drawed, and are hungering and thirsting to find God, and yet don’t know where to find Him, because those who are supposed to be billboards is so smutted up with the things of the world, till they can’t see where they got any more than they’ve got before they come to Him. They live like the world. They talk like the world. They sing the same songs the world does. They dress like the world, I mean, especially in the female sex. And they act like the world. They go to worldly places. They attend the worldly entertainments.
