God has chosen us to bring others to Christ. He has asked us to spread the Gospel to others who in turn will spread it to other people they know and so forth.

Read 1 Corinthians 1:17-23, Romans 1:15&16, & Romans 10:13-15

In verse 21 of 1^st Corinthians, how did God choose to save the World?

In Romans 1 verse 16 what is the power of God unto salvation?

Verse 13 in Romans 10 states that whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

According to verses 14 & 15 how is that accomplished?

Read Mark 16:15

This passage shows us that spreading the good news of what Christ has done for us is also commanded by God.

God will not leave us without help in this task or command he has given us. The following verses show us how we can be successful in this task.

Prayer:                                                                                         Read Colossians 4:3-6

What 6 things did Paul ask from God to help him in proclaiming the Gospel?

Companion:   (HE will be there with us)                         Read Matthew 10:19&20

According to verse 20 who will be doing the speaking?

The last couple of passages shows us some things that we as Christians are instructed to do in order to accomplish this important task given to us by God

Be a Servant:                                                                             Read 1 Corinthians 9:18&19

In verse 19 how did Paul say he was going to be able to reach more people for Christ?

Be Prepared:                                                                             Read 1 Peter 3:15

According to this verse when are we supposed to be ready to tell others about him?

How according to verse 15 is that accomplished?

We cannot be ready to give a testimony about what God has done for us at any time if we are not in a right relationship with God on a daily basis. That means being in constant prayer, fellowship, and the reading of his Word. Finally we do not want to hinder the beginning of God’s new kingdom by not spread his gospel worldwide. Read Matthew 24:14 and think of how you can help hasten the return of Christ.

Preparation for next week:

  When it comes to the things of God and God himself are you a lover or just an acquaintance? Are you a fanatic or just a casual follower?
