A Servant of All, That I Might Gain the More (2)
By Arie denHartog

The preacher who refuses to call men to repentance from sin because he fears offending them or losing them from the membership of his church will be responsible for their souls. He will be guilty of not having warned them in their sins and he will have become responsible for their apostasy from Christ. The sound doctrine of the Word of Christ must be preached to convince the gainsayers, in order that they might be turned again to the truth. “The servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient, in meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth; and that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive at his will” (II Tim. 2:24-26).

Mijn enige troost is, dat ik niet mijn, maar Jezus Christus eigen ben, Die voor mijn zonden betaald heeft, en zo bewaart, dat alles tot mijn zaligheid dienen moet; waarom Hij mij ook door Zijn Heilige Geest van eeuwig leven verzekert, en Hem voortaan te leven van harte willig en bereid maakt.
