Decision

A group of junior-level executives were participating in a management training program. The seminar leader pounded home his point about the need to make decisions and take action on these decisions.

"For instance," he said, "if you had five frogs on a log and three of them decided to jump, how many frogs would you have left on the log?"

The answers from the group were unanimous: "Two."

"Wrong," replied the speaker, "there would still be five because there is a difference between deciding to jump and jumping."

The above illustration is from Pastor Tim and it is an excellent example of what many people do when it comes to accepting Jesus as their Savior and Lord. These people "decide" to accept Jesus but never make the commitment to do so. Is it not possible that these same people then "decide" to call themselves Christians?
