Ephesians 6:19-20

Ephesians 6:19-20

Pray also for me, that whenever I open my mouth, words may be given me so that I will fearlessly make known the mystery of the gospel, for which I am an ambassador in chains. Pray that I may declare it fearlessly, as I should.

Ever eaten Arby’s roast beef sandwiches and fries?  Think about all those sauce options they have:  horsey, traditional, spicy, … the list is endless!

What’s the difference between weak and strong sauce?  For an Arby’s curly fry, it’s the difference between setting someone’s mouth on fire or keeping it cool depending on where you dip.  For a Jesus freak, it’s the difference between living a life on fire for Jesus and one that’s not.  If we are being transformed into the likeness of His Son, we cannot settle for being weak-sauce Christians.  Weak sauce avoids conflict, challenge, the testing of faith, and the work God is doing.  What kind of sauce are you?
