- HE THAT WINS SOULS IS WISE, WE ARE IN THE LAST SECONDS BEFORE HIS RETURN -Pastor Chuck Kennedy
John 9:4 I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.
John 9:5 As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.
We live in perilous times
However we are sheltered in the arms of Jesus
Blocked by the Blood from all hurt harm and danger
But that is not enough
We must tell others about this great salvation
2Tim 3:1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
2Tim 3:2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
2Tim 3:3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,
2Tim 3:4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
2Tim 3:5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.
We recognize the tiume we are in is the end of the end
We must act accordingly
Time has gotten very short as far as have more of it to come
It is upon us and the catching away could actually take place at any time
1Thess 5:1 But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you.
1Thess 5:2 For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night.
1Thess 5:3 For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.
1Thess 5:4 But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief.
1Thess 5:5 Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness.
1Thess 5:6 Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober.
1Thess 5:7 For they that sleep sleep in the night; and they that be drunken are drunken in the night.
1Thess 5:8 But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation.
1Thess 5:9 For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ,
We must share the love
It is not just about us being saved, we must bring others with us
Rom 13:11 And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed.
Rom 13:12 The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light.
Rom 13:13 Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and envying.
Rom 13:14 But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfil the lusts thereof.
We must get serious about soulwinning
It is a Biblical command
And it is love and faith in action
What more can we do
Let us as a church seek God for more ways we can share the Gospel
Yard signs, prayer booths,
Not just to count numbers of those whom we enticed to pray a prayer but to genuinely love these people and disciple them with follow up and concern of their soul
Luke 19:9 And Jesus said unto him, This day is salvation come to this house, forsomuch as he also is a son of Abraham.
Luke 19:10 For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.
Our will is to do His will
Luke 2:49 And he said unto them, How is it that ye sought me? wist ye not that I must be about my Father's business?
If you are looking for me,
You will find me doing my Fathers business, not my own
Luke 17:33 Whosoever shall seek to save his life shall lose it; and whosoever shall lose his life shall preserve it.
This is much of the problems in today’s church
People are seeking their promotion and recognition
They are out for themselves in the name of the Lord
John 4:34 Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work.
John 4:35 Say not ye, There are yet four months, and then cometh harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest.
John 4:36 And he that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth fruit unto life eternal: that both he that soweth and he that reapeth may rejoice together.
John 4:37 And herein is that saying true, One soweth, and another reapeth.
John 4:38 I sent you to reap that whereon ye bestowed no labour: other men laboured, and ye are entered into their labours.
There is forgiveness with God for all of us
We must turn from self and soulish ways and focus our attention on a lost and dying world
This is wisdom for the hour we are appointed
Prov 11:28 He that trusteth in his riches shall fall: but the righteous shall flourish as a branch.
Prov 11:30 The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that winneth souls is wise.
