To Everything, There is a Season (Turn, Turn, Turn)

In the 12th chapter of John’s Gospel, the story is recounted of a group of Greeks who reached out to Philip. Their plaintiff's cry in verse 21 was simply “Sir, we would see Jesus.” The inhabitants of our nation are yearning for the very same thing today. Their call these days is just too urgent for us to be vocal spectators standing on the sidelines of life with mere pettiness leaking from our lips. Now is the time for Christ’s church in America to speak the truth by taking up the banner of proclaiming the Gospel of the God who loves each of us so much that He gave His only Son for our redemption. Neither the “fainthearted nor the fanatic are needed.” But rather let us as followers of Christ rise up to meet the swelling tide of those seeking to know and learn the truth. I sense the very Spirit of God moving through our nation. We simply cannot miss this opportunity, for there may never be another. If there is no revival in America now, then when? And if we do not lead, then who?
