I read a short article by Randy Shepherd and Jamie Johnson telling that they had met Kobe Bryant in a hotel lobby at the Summer Olympics. They talked briefly, then they asked him if he had ever accepted Jesus as his Savior and he said yes. They gave him a gospel tract and he took it graciously, the three had their picture taken together, then went their separate ways. Even though I do not know these men, actually never heard of them before, I must say I admire their boldness in asking someone I would think as unapproachable, the most important question that a believer can ask: "Has there been a time in your life when you knew you were lost and you asked Jesus to forgive your sins, then asked Him to save you?"
Many people believe that if the good they do outweighs the bad, they'll go to heaven when we die.
Many believe they must be baptized, be a part of a certain church or movement, or do good works and that will be sufficient. But the Bible declares that the only way to heaven is to: recognize that we are lost without Christ, repent (turn) from our sin, ask Jesus to forgive our sins and to save our soul.
Be bold today; ask someone you love the most important question. Ask a friend the most important question. And yes, ask someone you hardly know at all the question that could start a conversation that would change a person's eternal destiny.
Listed are scriptures that can help you get started. Be bold. Share your faith. We never know how close someone may be to hearing the gospel message for the last time.
