We have the truth, and that should give us a biblical sense of urgency to reach out to people that Jesus loves.

For if, after they have escaped the defilements of the world through the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in them and overpowered, the last state has become worse for them than the first.
