So thou, O son of man, I have set thee a watchman unto the house of Israel; therefore thou shalt hear the word at my mouth, and warn them from me. When I say unto the wicked, O wicked [man], thou shalt surely die; if thou dost not speak to warn the wicked from his way, that wicked [man] shall die in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at thine hand.Nevertheless, if thou warn the wicked of his way to turn from it; if he do not turn from his way, he shall die in his iniquity; but thou hast delivered thy soul. - Eze 33:7-9

And not just them, but you and I and every other Christian have a duty to the Word of God (albeit to a lesser extent than they): keeping the lamp in plain view, loving one another, forgiving, being merciful, seeking His will, being and doing and speaking as He leads us to proclaim the Gospel.

So when the Great White Throne judgment comes, I will be held to account not only for myself but for everyone I have “touched” in this life. But my prayer is that, because I have eschewed all the doctrines and traditions of men across the board, then no one else will be held to account for me. And conversely, whenever I testify to another, I encourage them to look to God, not me.

To God be the glory, God alone.

INDEED, INDEED, INDEED!
