Jhn 1:40-42 (40) One of the two which heard John speak, and followed him, was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother. (41) He first findeth his own brother Simon, and saith unto him, We have found the Messias, which is, being interpreted, the Christ. (42) And he brought him to Jesus. And when Jesus beheld him, he said, Thou art Simon the son of Jona: thou shalt be called Cephas, which is by interpretation, A stone.
What was the meaning of Andrew’s message to Simon?
It seems one of the most frequent questions I receive in objection to the sovereign electing grace of God predestinating all things according to His will is why preach or do mission work. The simplest answer that they will never comprehend without the grace of god revealing it to them, is that when the Sprit touches your heart and in mercy gives you true hope and peace you desire, no you want nothing else, no it is an inability of this world to restrain you from going out and sharing this good news with everyone you love and meet. You wish for everyone to know what you now know through the revelation of the Spirit for the glory of the Son and the peace of your brother.
