One Google official said that people come to search in the Google search engine; in fact, Google searches the consumers and provides helpful prompts for their searches. One young pastor said, “We cannot wait for truth seekers to search and find us out. We have to search for them in the Digital World and find them out. Hence, we use strategies to attract by placing certain posts, thumbnails, advertisements, and hashtags.”
Seeking the lost: While all religions are searching for the truth or God. However, their search does not yield any results, as they do not have the knowledge or skills to do such a search. However, the Lord Jesus Christ said that He had come to the world to seek the lost. (Luke 19:10) Sadly, most religions are ignorant if not arrogant, for them God is lost to be found, instead considering sinners as lost to be found.
Searching Shepherds: The Lord taught the Parable of the lost sheep. (Luke 15:3-7) The shepherd takes personal responsibility to go in search of one lost sheep. The lost sheep needs a shepherd to come back to the fold. God has called all believers to be searching shepherds in the world. Prayerfully and diligently, they should seek and search for the sheep that are not in the fold. All disciples are called to Bring Them In. (John 10:16) As under-shepherds, all faithful people should bring lost sheep to the Good Shepherd.
Sin searches: When a sinner does not search for Truth, seek God, the sin will find out. (Numbers 32:23) Sin is dynamically active to bring utter destruction to a person created in the image of God. The Wages of sin is death, which is the Second Death, the eternal separation from God, and eternal punishment with Satan and his demons in the Lake of Fire. (Romans 6:23; Revelation 20:14)
Search mode: All believers should be sensitive to the guidance of the Spirit of God, to search and find those who are lost, need the gospel desperately. So that they could bring them to the Great Good Chief Shepherd.
Do I sensitively, seriously, and stubbornly seek the lost?
