Defending Jesus to Mormons, by being LIKE Jesus - Ravi Zacharias

   Ravi Zacharias is famous for his authoring and speaking, for his apologetics and philosophical debates against attackers of the Christian faith and more importantly the Holy Bible, Word of God. In the linked broadcast below, a concept is exemplified that I felt compelled to point out, and feel compelled to try and LIVE out. Ravi, in the broadcast, delivers a message, of course, this is what he does and has done on countless occasions. What makes this delivery unique is that his words in this message are being heard within the walls of the Mormon Tabernacle in Utah. Why would Mormons want to hear Ravi speak? Perhaps they have a malicious scheme to absorb what he says and twist or utilize it for marketing Mormonism more effectively to weak or alleged Christians. Maybe, but I'd like to believe that they want to hear Ravi speak, because he's Ravi. They want to hear him speak because of how he carries himself; his reputation for being a remarkable speaker of enlightenment; because of his renown of projected goodness, which is of course, Godliness.
So the thought occurs to me, Ravi in living his life and doing what he does is so revered that he is invited to speak in places one would never assume a projector of the Christian faith would be invited to. The notion exemplifies that if we strive to reach others for Christ, even those who would seem to want nothing at all to do with Christ, we need to live as Christ (seems backwards I know). Living us much like Him, keeping Him acknowledged in every minute detail, might just get US invited to then share him to someone who never would have otherwise. Become so revered due to your true faith, that in your circles maybe you, like Ravi, will be asked to SHARE YOUR FAITH.
