    Why Jesus Wants Us To Be Initiators Instead Of Remaining As Passive Recipients

    Contributed by Paul Fritz on Oct 18, 2000
    based on 25 ratings
     | 8,711 views

    The Lord expects us to initiate opportunities with the power of the Spirit to bring others to a saving and growing faith in our Lord Jesus. It is not enough to passively receive what He gives freely. "Freely we have received, therefore, freely give."
