Each of Us Can Witness and Share the Gospel
In the book of 1 Corinthians, Paul uses metaphors that were a part of their culture to communicate essential truths. Paul relates the work of evangelism to a farmer's work in the field: "So neither the one who plants nor the one who waters is anything, but only God, who makes things grow." 1 Corinthians 3:7 

Paul's message is clear to us: We are all empowered with the task to witness, but it is ultimately God the Holy Spirit who grows the seed of faith in the hearts of those who hear and believe. This means others' response to the good news of the gospel is not dependent on us as believers. It is simply our responsibility to faithfully share the good news of eternal life we get through Jesus Christ.

Stand firm. Be strong. Endure.
These are all biblical words of exhortation. Each one implies the same thing: Being faithful to our calling as disciples of Christ is an ongoing struggle. As Luther reminded us in his Small Catechism, the devil, the world, and our own sinful nature “do not want us to hallow God’s name or let His kingdom come.” As long as sin remains in the world, there will be opposition to Christ’s Church and to the truth of His Word. 

We make progress in one area of the life arena, only to lose ground in another. Attitudes toward abortion might be shifting for the good in one state, while others push for later term abortions and wider access to medical abortion and the morning after pill. The tide may start to turn regarding gender issues, but the widespread acceptance of divorce and pre-marital sex continues to spread, even among the Church. And studies have shown that American Christians are becoming more sympathetic toward physician-assisted suicide.
