Introduction:
Last week we began to look at the subject of bringing people to Jesus.
In John chapter 1, we saw two individuals who became active in bringing other people to Jesus following their own conversion experience.
Two of Jesus's first disciples, Andrew and Philip, demonstrated the reality of their own salvation experiences by seeking out people close to them to introduce to Christ.
There are different types of people in your life and mine that need to be brought to Jesus to experience life transformation.
Today we want to look at the 1st category of people we need to reach.
Today we are going to look at trying to bring religious, but lost people in our lives to Christ.
These are individuals who profess some type of religious belief – and indeed, may even be actively involved adherence of some religion or faith group.
One of the basic facts that you and I must come to grips with is the fact that being religious does not mean that an individual has experienced salvation.
In our text, Jesus addresses this issue very clearly.
Jesus was approached one evening by a man who was extremely religious.
This man had a sincere desire to follow the dictates of his religion.
Unfortunately, his religiosity was insufficient in the eyes of God.
As we take a look at how Jesus dealt with Nicodemus, we need to find a pattern that will help us bring religious, but lost people to me Jesus.
Noticed some things that are an absolute necessity in bringing this type of people to Jesus.
