1Co16

Are we quick to see conflict or difficulty as a "closed door" for the gospel? If we encounter "push back" do we assume God is not in it? Paul definitely was not that way!

Paul saw opposition at times as affirmation that he was doing the right thing. He said, " I will stay in Ephesus for a while because a wide door for effective ministry has opened for me - yet many oppose me." Paul believed the words of Jesus when He stated that many will oppose the gospel. Opposition didn't detour the apostle Paul.

Sharing Christ will always be resisted by those who are rejecting Him. Don't let their resistance keep us from sharing the good news. Let it be a something that actually fuels our desire to share!
