How would I know a Bible gift to my dear sister would turn my world upside down the way it did? I had finally discovered salvation through our Lord Christ Jesus, and I was not even comfortable explaining it to her. Her reaction was no different from most, but it does reflect a very sad state--a state where everything about Jesus is being slowly eliminated and scoffed at. Her response to my gift floored me, and it set me on a path to explaining the greatest event of one's life and how the majority of people are missing out on this divine inheritance given to humanity through the tender grace of God. Most people have no idea what being "born again" means, let alone the fact that it is the only path that leads to eternal life after one dies a human death.
