REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD AMEN.
Friday 18TH MARCH
EVANGELISM IS GOD’S UNBIASED WAY OF SALVATION.
TEXT: 2 TIMOTHY 4: 2, 3
Key verse: John 12: 32 "And I, if I am lifted from the earth, will draw all men unto me."
Most of the gospel activities going on in our days are not Christianity. If what is going on in Pentecostal and Orthodox denominations in Christianity, then the Catholic's Hail Mary is Christianity too. This knowledge that Christianity is lost is what gives me focus on evangelism work in churches and the global world. It is the responsibility of every believer to lift Jesus everywhere as reflected in our key verse today.
Jesus is happy that you have resolved to lift Him so He can draw all men to Himself. Have in mind as a believer that the paramount Person you are bringing the souls to Christ and not your denominational church. Many are in denominational churches that are not in Christ. We need to possess the following qualities to be effective in evangelism:
• Personal salvation: Matthew 7: 3 – 5; Sin is a beam in the eye of people. Jesus is the one that specializes in removing such beams so they could see. To tell them about the mote in their eyes; Jesus is asking if you have removed the beam in your eyes. You are busy directing many to be saved from sin, what about you? Thou hypocrite, cast out the beam in your eyes. Your own is bigger because you know you are a sinner but you are also claiming righteousness. Get salvation of your soul first.
• Compassion for sinners; Begin to think about their ends how none of these precious souls like you will lose heaven. Precious; yet misdirected. See the Catholics who got closed to Christianity but their focus is not on Jesus but Mary. Catholics, as we know them today, are not in Christianity, they are on the way to destruction in their multitudes. Muslims are hardened and fortified against the gospel of Christ.
• Prayer; Pray for people and for ideas on how to reach them. See your fellow human beings that are ready to persecute your love and compassion to reach them for Christ; they have not understood the implication of their sins. They don't know that you are making efforts to save them. The dog has fallen into a trap and is in excruciating pain; you are making effort to deliver it yet, it sees you as an enemy. The situation is filthy; you need to pray to God for wisdom to affect them.
Thought for today: You are saved to evangelize
Song for the day: Have you heard the joyful news……………………….
