I found a perfect description of the ideal mindset and attitude of a Christian who is ministering to the lost:
“If you can’t identify with Jeremiah, who could preach out of fire in his bones, who could preach judgment like no other Old Testament prophet perhaps, and all the while, while you’re preaching that judgment, have such a heart of compassion for the lost that you’re eyes run down with tears, then you missed the right mentality.”
John MacArthur, Grace Community Church
A true sense of the Desperate Urgency of our times alongside a sincere, overwhelming grief for human souls, and also a necessary carefulness—a Godly fear of making mistakes, etc.
MERCY, MERCY, MERCY.
MERCY.
MERCY.
MERCY.
YES.
AND ALWAYS, TOTALLY UNCOMPROMISING TRUTH.
AMEN.

Christina on December 26 at 6:58 pmThank you. Yes. At one point very early on in my belief, I had been led to the Book of Job...which affected me so profoundly...and that very night I was led directly to ask GOD to show me...my OWN heart. That very night, I was taken to actually SEE my HEART...given knowledge, understanding....along with the VISUAL sight of my own heart!!!!! It was so shocking and horrifying that I turned and fled in true horror!!! I was in shock for a full year. It was BLACK...the most evil sight I’d ever got near in my life!!! And I had no idea!!! I always thought that I was a “good” person! I was then told the following words: PRIDE, ARROGANCE, HYPOCRISY, MALICE, LIES, DECEIT, SELFISHNESS, SELF-RIGHTEOUSNESS...on and on and on. Every single DEADLY SIN and every other SIN as well!!!! I WAS DEPRAVED and EVIL BEYOND ANYONE!!! And I had NO IDEA!!!! Jeremiah 17:9. “The human heart is the most deceitful of all things, and desperately wicked. Who really knows how bad it is?” GOD KNOWS!!! THAT’S WHO!!! Sure Can’t hide it!!! We’d all do well to know this!!! So that NONE of us EVER has the audacity (PRIDE) to actually think that we are somehow...”better”... than anyone else...in ANY way, shape or form!!!! Let’s NOT deceive ourselves!!!! Or let ourselves BE deceived by some silver tongued DEVIL!!!! Remember when God says...”You are not that important.” And none of us are!!!! Thank you so much, God. For we are so utterly unworthy. Thank you, Lord Jesus. Amen.

Pauline & JIM Kennedy on December 26 at 6:31 pmI pray further that people would realize the point of forgiveness that It is not a feeling but a command to be obedient to God's word. Forgive 7x77 (always). Many on this website are asking others to agree with them against slander of of neighbor I think it was Ps 105 when this scripture is like a warning to us (not to get people to agree with them. Then we play the part of judge. We are not the judge God is and like you said Mercy. We need hearts that are truly compassionate. We really have to pray for All of Gods Children for repentant hearts and the grace of forgiveness. If we don't we condem the children of God and act on satan's behalf. May God bless you with Christmas blessings and bless you spirit, soul, body, finances and relationships and mentally in the New Year and always. Please pray for our special intention. Thank you. God Bless, Pauline & Jim Kennedy, Canada
