Preach God Everywhere - Francis Of Assissi by PastorAIO: 12:22pm On Jun 23, 2009 |
What did Francis of Assisi mean by these words: [size=15pt]Preach God everywhere: If necessary use words.[/size] I've looked at a number of understandings of this phrase like here http://richestmaninassisi..com/2006/03/preach-gospel-if-necessary-use-words.html http://www.challies.com/archives/general-news/its-always-nece.php http://www.revelife.com/701014198/dont-settle-for-words-when-preaching-the-gospel/ |

Francis of Asisi is perhaps the greatest christian leader of the last 1000 years May his soul continue to rest in heaven. 1 Like |

Pastor AIO: Works pay more dividends than talk. Actions speak louder than words. Those are two expressions that come to mind when I read the attributed quote. In my opinion, St. Francis was advocating something I think many Christians forget: behaving "Christ-like" is probably the best way to show people the validity of the Gospels. Essentially, acting with love is a better witness to the love of Christ in a person than simply talking about love and not necessarily showing the evidence of such supposedly live changing love in one's life. Two pence. |
