Just 1 in 21 Remix

Refreshing the Theme

Idea of One Thing and the Importance of One

Psalm 27:4 “One thing I have asked of the Lord...”

Mark 10:21 “Jesus, looking, loved, said “You lack one thing...”

Luke 10:42 “Only one thing is necessary...”

Philippians 3:13 “One thing I do...”

Consider

If you were going to do one thing in 2021, what would it be?

Commit to Just 1 in 21 - One God; One Gospel; One Goal

Just 1 Goal

Reaching just one lost sheep brings more rejoicing in heaven than ninety-nine righteous persons

Why is it so hard for us to reach just one?

Two Trumps One

Sinners and tax collectors were interested in His message. They are not interested in ours.

Jesus received and ate with sinners. We tend to avoid them.

Action

Remember the WHY - LUKE 4:18-19

Sinners who are poor, blind, bound, and oppressed are looking for Good News.

The message of Jesus announced Good News and called for Repentance

Remember the HOW - LUKE 10:30-37

Jesus instructs us to imitate Him, the One who shows mercy

Take Away

First, be sure of our relationship with Christ. Then, go and do the same.

How does our means of communicating with the lost need to change?

How does our reception of and mercy toward the lost need to change?
