Not Ashamed part 2

Not ashamed

Romans

1:16

For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek.

Where did we come from?

TRUTH “In the beginning GOD”

Why are we here?

Where are we going?

In the beginning God created (Bara) out of nothing

In Genesis chapter 1 God is listed 26 times

If you were to google where did we come from you are not going to get the truth

Here is the lie you will get if you ask google the question where did humans come form

This is a lie straight from Hell

Humans first evolved in Africa, and much of human evolution occurred on that continent. The fossils of early humans who lived between 6 and 2 million years ago come entirely from Africa Most scientists currently recognized some 15 to 20 different species of early humans.

Effective sharing starts with caring!

People can tell if you really care about them. A child knows it; even a dog can tell!!

Do you care about people who do not know the Lord?

I ask this question because effective sharing of one’s faith starts with a concern, a burden.

When we have a passion for Christ and then we will have a Passion the bring the lost to him.

Last week we talked about Power this week it Passion for the lost.

I want to share a story with you about a letter that was sent to a Pastor

It read can you pray for me My husband has become involved in drugs and, as a result, was about to go to prison. Making matters worse, the family had been contacted by a social agency that was to assume custody of their children. The woman was desperate. The pastor went to the address on the letter and found the family at home. He led the husband and wife to faith in Christ and baptized them that Sunday and the Husband got out of prison and the family was on track the Pastor asked what caused you to right the letter to our church, She said I wrote a letter to ever church and town. Your church was the only of to reach out.

Would you have responded the way this Pastor did???

God wants every Christian to have a heart for lost people.

Yet Passion for witnessing to non-Christians is far more than a Zeal for witnessing. It is zeal based on a purpose. It is love for God and for People that drives us to witness.

The love that led this pastor to respond is nurtured by a desire to love people and to give them hope that is found only in a relationship with Jesus.

A caring person can mend a heart of brokenness, bring hope to a heart of hopelessness, and bring salvation to a heart that is lost without Jesus.
