When Peter is talking to the churches in 2 Peter 2 about Persecution, he brings up one interesting name: Lot. We don’t often remember Lot for his goodness, but Peter says that his “righteous soul was vexed” by the immorality that was around him daily. Daniel was in the same boat. Exiled in Babylon after the destruction of Judah, Daniel lived decades in a land that was pagan in every sense of the word: religiously, culturally, emotionally, and physically. Many of us know how those two men felt. How do we survive in a pagan world that is hostile to all things Christ? The same way they did.

CloseEvangelism becomes a lot easier once we realize the need for evangelism in the first place. But we already see the need, don't we? God tells us to do it and we do it -- simple as that, right? It should be, but the need for evangelism has its roots in a proper understanding of grace and mercy. Once we realize the gift that's been given to us, it should be natural for us to extend it to others. To put it simply, maybe the reason we don't evangelize as we should is because we fail to see our own need for salvation -- and in turn, fail to see the need of others.
