FEAR

We fear the things we shouldn't fear: airplane rides, public-speaking, asking someone on a date. Planes are incredibly safe. Public speaking is generally safe. Asking someone sets one up for a yes or no answer.
We don't fear the one thing we should fear. The swine flu may get us, and it may not get us; but something will one day get us. Since that day is coming, why aren't people in a frenzy to get the answer to Where will I spend eternity? Why isn't that ever breaking news?
It is breaking news. It's called the Good News. It's called the Gospel.
For I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ, for it is the POWER of God unto salvation.
