The use of Scripture cannot be overemphasized “For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.” Heb. 4:12
“But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name.” Jn. 20:31
Jesus is the only answer for the unsaved, so stick to Jesus! Jesus said, “And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me.” Jn. 12:32

Paul said, “For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified.” I Cor. 2:2 “For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus’ sake. II Cor. 4:5
Make it understandable! Matt. 13:18 Hear ye therefore the parable of the sower. 13:19 When any one heareth the word of the kingdom, and understandeth it not, then cometh the wicked one, and catcheth away that which was sown in his heart.
