Making a difference

 

But you, beloved, building yourselves up on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit, keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life. And on some have compassion, making a distinction; but others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire, hating even the garment defiled by the flesh. – Jude 20-23

 

We don’t get to share our faith with everyone the same way because everyone has different needs. We have to be wise in how we deal with people.

 

There are two examples here of how to deal with those who need the gospel.

 

On some show a distinction by having compassion

On some we need to hate their sin and snatch them from the fires of destruction

 

We can love some to Jesus, others need to be clearly shown the fate of not being saved.

 

Our job is to make a difference no matter who we witness to. We must rely on the Holy Spirit to work on hearts and to do His work.
