WHAT'S HAPPENING?

We don't see as many people being born again today as we used to see, do we? I don't know the reason, but I wonder about a couple of things. Could one reason be that the majority of God's people refuse to have natural babies and therefore God is holding back spiritual babies?

1 Corinthians 15:46 tells us that the natural comes before the spiritual. God not only wants to bless us with a great spiritual harvest of souls, but with the blessing of babies, too. How can there be a harvest of souls if there are not natural souls to harvest? And how can there be a great harvest of souls if we haven't brought forth the laborers to harvest the vineyards that are ready to harvest?

Could another reason relate to the lifestyle of the early church?

In Acts 2:46-47 it tells us that the believers continued DAILY in breaking bread with one another in their homes. They did not live to themselves but freely opened their homes in hospitality.

What's our modern lifestyle? Do we show hospitality once a year, once every few months, or once a week? What about daily? Maybe this would also make a difference to souls being saved. The fruit of the early church lifestyle was that as they daily opened up their homes "the Lord added to the church DAILY such as should be saved."
