Invitation to Christ

My family and I took a trip to Charlotte recently and visited the Billy Graham Museum. The experience was very moving. I remember as a child watching the Billy Graham crusades on television. When I was 11 years old, I attended a revival service at the Hampton Colesium in Virginia. What I remember the most was the invitation to Christ at the end of the service. The choir sang the traditional, "Just As I Am" and Billy Graham gave the invitation to come to Christ. This is an invitation from the late Bishop G.E. Patterson. This is the most important part to any service. Christ came for the sinner and the lost not those who know who he is. Satan is alive and plotting on the ones who believe they have it all together. Luke 5:31 (King James Version)

31And Jesus answering said unto them, They that are whole need not a physician; but they that are sick.
For the next few postings I will research some you tube clips that extend a true invitation to Christian Discipleship. One should never forget the root word in Christian is Christ.
Only Believe.....
