[GG] [PREACHING LESSON 20:] GOD CALLS THE SOULWINNERS WISE


 

GOD CALLS THE SOULWINNERS WISE

 

( Proverbs 11: 30 ) The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that winneth souls is wise.

 

a. God gave good commendation and special mention to all soul winners because they are very dear in the heart of God. He called them "co-laborers or partners in His vineyard."

Christ also called them His "friends."

It's so wonderful to become His friends, isn't it? Wouldn't you like to be ONE?

 

b. Soulwinners are Christians who are engaged in reaching the hopeless and helpless lost people that are bound to go to hell. We have a great mission given by God. Mission that's only given to His local church, which is bought by the precious blood of Christ.

 

(Acts 20:28 ) Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood.

 

4 Reasons Why Soulwinners Are Wise in the Sight of God.

 

1. Because they have chosen to give value to eternal things.

 

( Mark 8:36 ) For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?

 

The things that our eyes can see are only temporal, yet those that are unseen are precious and eternal.

 

In Colossians 3:2, Paul challenged the Colossians Church to set their affection on things above and not on things on earth.

Soulwinners, you are called wise because you give value to the Precious Souls of lost sinners.

Bless your heart. Soulwinners.

 

2. Because they have chosen to fulfill the great commission of the Lord Jesus Christ.

 

( Mathew 28:19-20 ) [19]Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:

[20]Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.

 

Christ commanded the church to “ Go Into The World.”

 

( Mark 16:15 ) And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.

Take note of the sincere and important commandment of Christ, "To preach the gospel to every creature."

Christ's main concern is the salvation of every lost person.

That's how "precious" we are before Christ. He is not a respecter of persons. He loves us all.

Soulwinners, you are called wise because you have chosen to fulfill the great commission of the Lord Jesus Christ.

 

3. Because they have chosen to prove their love to God by winning lost people.

 

( John 14:15 ) If ye love me, keep my commandments

 

(John 15:14) Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you.

 

What a great privilege to be friends of Christ.

Soulwinners, you are called wise because you have chosen to prove the sincerity of your love to Christ.

 

( II Corinthians 8:8 ) I speak not by commandment, but by occasion of the forwardness of others, and to prove the sincerity of your love.

 

4. Because they have chosen to be servants for lost people in order to win them to Christ.

 

( I Corinthians 9:19 ) For though I be free from all men, yet have I made myself servant unto all, that I might gain the more.

 

Paul had chosen to be a servant for all lost people just for them to be saved.

This is a clear manifestation of self-denial and sacrifice—this is being wise in winning more lost people.

Paul was a good example of a very effective and fruitful soulwinner

Soulwinners, God called you WISE because you valued precious souls.

Hope this lesson challenged you.

* God bless you all always. *
