And that which fell among thorns are they, which, when they have heard, go forth, and are choked with cares and riches and pleasures of this life, and bring no fruit to perfection. (Luke 8:14 KJV) And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so. (Genesis 1:11 KJV)
1 Corinthians 15:1-4 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. (1 Corinthians 15:2 KJV) Don t Forget Evangelism
Dont Forget Evangelism We Must Not Forget... I. What Evangelism Is... Evangelism - to spread the word; to publish, proclaim, as a herald, ... Evangelist- one who spreads (preaches or teaches) the word (1 Tim 4:15-16; 2 Tim 4:15-16)
Meditate upon these things; give thyself wholly to them; that thy profiting may appear to all. Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this thou shalt both save thyself, and them that hear thee. (1 Timothy 4:15 16 KJV)
I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom; Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables. But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry. For I am now ready to be offered, and the time of my departure is at hand. (2 Timothy 4:1 6 KJV)
Dont Forget Evangelism We Must Not Forget... II. The Distinction In Responsibility... Collectively... The Thessalonians
And ye became followers of us, and of the Lord, having received the word in much affliction, with joy of the Holy Ghost: So that ye were ensamples to all that believe in Macedonia and Achaia. For from you sounded out the word of the Lord not only in Macedonia and Achaia, but also in every place your faith to God-ward is spread abroad; so that we need not to speak any thing. (1 Thessalonians 1:6 8 KJV)
Dont Forget Evangelism We Must Not Forget... II. The Distinction In Responsibility... Collectively... A local church may support an evangelist (1 Cor 9:9-14; Phil 4:15-16; 2 Cor 11:8)... A local church may send out a preacher (Acts 13:3)... A local church may bring one in (Acts 11:22, 25- 26)...
Dont Forget Evangelism We Must Not Forget... III. The Distinction In Responsibility... Individually... (Matt 28:19-20)... (Acts 8:3-6)... (Acts 18:1-4, 24-26)... We are the salt of the earth & the light of the world (Matt 5:13-16)... God expects a return of His investment (Matt 25:14-36)...
Dont Forget Evangelism We Must Not Forget... IV. The Study Of God s Word... We must be diligent to show ourselves approved/acceptable to God (2 Tim 2:15). We must grow on (2 Pet 3:17-18)... (1 Pet 3:15)...
Dont Forget Evangelism We Must Not Forget... V. Courage & Boldness... (Jude 3)... (Acts 4:8-13; 5:22-32 Cf Phil 1:19-20)...
Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faithwhich was once delivered unto the saints. (Jude 1:3 KJV)
Then Peter, filled with the Holy Ghost, said unto them, Ye rulers of the people, and elders of Israel, If we this day be examined of the good deed done to the impotent man, by what means he is made whole; Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by him doth this man stand here before you whole. This is the stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become the head of the corner. Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marvelled; and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus. (Acts 4:8 13 KJV)
For I know that this shall turn to my salvation through your prayer, and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ, According to my earnest expectation and my hope, that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but that with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether it be by life, or by death. (Philippians 1:19 20 KJV)
Dont Forget Evangelism We Must Not Forget... VI. Wisdom... (Col 4:5-6)... (Jude 22-25)
Walk in wisdom toward them that are without, redeeming the time. Let your speech be alway with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know howye ought to answer every man. (Colossians 4:5 6 KJV) But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost, Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life. And of some have compassion, making a difference: And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh. (Jude 1:20 23 KJV) c
Dont Forget Evangelism We Must Not Forget... VIII. Truth & Love (Gal 5:6; 1 Jn 3:10-13 Cf Eph 4:25)...
That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive; But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, evenChrist: (Ephesians 4:14 15 KJV) And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness. Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour: for we are members one of another. (Ephesians 4:24 25 KJV)
For we through the Spirit wait for the hope of righteousness by faith. For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision; but faith which worketh by love. Ye did run well; who did hinder you that ye should not obey the truth? Z Gen 4:1-8 (Galatians 5:5 7 KJV) In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother. For this is the message that ye heard from the beginning, that we should love one another. Not as Cain, who was of that wicked one, and slew his brother. And wherefore slew he him? Because his own works were evil, and his brother s righteous. Marvel not, my brethren, if the world hate you. (1 John 3:10 13 KJV)
