Persuading Men Because Of God’s Terror
Monday 26th January
Text: 2 Corinthians 5:10-11
Key Verse: 2 Corinthians 5:11 Knowing the terror of the Lord, we persuade men; but we are made manifest unto God; and I trust also are made manifest in your consciences.
The judgment of God is surely coming upon sinners. When you see your relations and know that this particular relation of mine shall be damned in hell forever and ever; that this my father shall be damned in Hell; this my mother shall be damned in Hell; this my goodly neighbour shall be damned in Hell; you look round and consider that judgment is surely coming upon the sinners because of the wickedness and evil of their way, there must be concern in your heart. And bearing in mind the little you know of hell; the sufferings of hell, the crying, the agony and eternity of hell, when you look back and see a man in his car with a prostitute “enjoying” life, do you just sit down and do nothing? When you see a woman in trousers moving on the street, there should be a burden, a concern for her. If you consider that children who are in the age of accountability go to hell for their stubbornness, wickedness and witchcraft, it disturbs your heart and troubles your mind. That is the passion! This is expected of you as a soul winner; knowing the terror of the Lord, you will persuade men.
When you now see the gift of God, that this people can be saved; this man can become a changed man; this woman, though very troublesome, can become a renewed woman, a godly woman; this woman that people are running away from because she is a witch, can be nice, a transformed woman, a noble woman in the things of God; when you see that because of the gift of God in Christ Jesus and the salvation freely given, these people can be saved, you feel concerned,
you feel troubled in your heart. This is the passion we are talking about! Paul the apostle felt the passion for souls. He was troubled because they claimed to be serving God but did not know His righteousness. They were not born again. They served very zealously, but not in the right way and will not escape judgment.
