I don't know. Are there any sinners there? Did Jesus go where the sinners were?
I have a cousin who is an unsual person. I really don't know if she claims to have the Holy Ghost anymore or not. But she frequents bars but never drinks. She will drink anything from mild to water, but never alcohol. She has won dozens and dozens of people out of the bars who are now in churches that she will not even attend. She tells those drunks about Jesus, his saving love and the power of the Holy Ghost to live a life free from sin. The drunks are drawn to her but she sends them to church where they experience what she has told them about.
I don't think that I could ever do that, and certainly I would never suggest anyone else to try it, but neither have I won so many people as she, witnessing one-on-one in bars. Are those souls less valuable in the KOG than a good saint knocking on doors. Are the souls won by T.V. advertising less value than those souls won by good saints knocking on doors?
Let me ask you this sir..."If a soul come to the bleeding side of Calvary to have his sins cleansed by that crimson fountain, even if it cost a church money and some reputation, what kind of money would it take to buy that one soul back from Jesus? How much money would Jesus have to have to surrender that soul back?
Like I said above, sometimes I waver in my opinion, but I cannot give any logical reason for not reaching into the muck and mire, not sparing a fine reputation.
