The Final Transmission

I have been eager to make a pointed transmission, ending the ragged run of sporratic excerpts and lessons from my life. I am happy to say I have discovered my final point. It is the one thing I truly wish to pass on. It is the legacy I wish to leave behind, and the work I wish for us to do.
In my mind, I always seek out efficiency of action, not because I am lazy, but because I ascribe to the motto: "work smarter, not harder." But, truly, smarter work has higher, and more effective, gains. So let me begin.
Proverbs 11:30 "The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life, and he who wins souls is wise."
Be wise and win souls.. and I shall tell you how. As it requires the most simple of regurgitated questions.
Ask those you meet, "Who do you say Jesus of Nazareth was?"
In this way, you allow them the opportunity to accept and profess that he is the son of the living God, avoid it in shame (and thus the Lord will be ashamed of him), or deny it.
it is in Matthew 16:15-19(Peter's confession of Christ) that the revelation of Christ as the Son of God, comes from the Father himself, and on the rock of this confession is safety from hell, and thus a person has been saved.
So go, save lives, be fruitful and wise.
