But if you're ever interested in filling up your church with people who swore they'd never, ever walk in a church, just come on down the slope and visit me. I'll help you fill it up with people who need Jesus! One warning, though. It's not easy and it'll cost you everything!
Think AI thread as for what I'm implying. I think there's a much more definite line between the world and the church than you draw.

But I totally agree with your approach on people. I remember onetime when someone made the comment about having to compete with the Baptists on trying to get people to come to church, and your response was something along the lines of "Why compete, just reach out to the drug heads, and prostititues and alchoholics and agnostics."

So true. We're not competing with each other, but we should be working together despite our differences. You and me have very distinct differences, yet I would not let it hinder our fellowship so long as our goal is the same, to bring the lost person to repentance in Jesus Christ.
