*THE JESUS MODEL FOR MINISTRY...*
* HE LOVED UNBELIEVERS*
*Mark 1:40-45*
*INTRODUCTION*
*/We are commanded to love 55 times in the NT/*
/(1 John 4:8) "Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love."/
*/Jesus was constantly reaching out in love to sinners/*
/(Luke 7:34) "The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and you say, 'Here is a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and "sinners."'"/
*/It is easy to love Believers... How do you love Unbelievers?/*
*/Let’s look at our Model.../*
\\ *1A.
WE MUST LEARN TO ACCEPT UNBELIEVERS WITHOUT APPROVING OF THEIR SIN*
*/1B.
Realize that Unbelievers are Corrupted (40)/*
*Leprosy corrupted the entire person...*
*Physically - he would have been disfigured and diseased*
*Socially - he was an outcast from everyone*
*Spiritually - he was not allowed to worship in the temple*
/(James 1:14‑15) "...but each one is tempted when, by his own evil desire, he is dragged away and enticed.
{15} Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full‑grown, gives birth to death."/
*/2B.
Recognize that Unbelievers cannot Change Themselves/*
*Leprosy was incurable*
(/Luke 5:31‑32) "Jesus answered them, "It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick.
{32} I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.""/
*/3B.
Rely on the Holy Spirit to Convict and Convert/*
*What drew the man to Christ was conviction and hope!*
*Mark 1:37-39 - God’s Spirit and the hope that He brings drew crowds to Jesus*
\\ *2A.
WE MUST DO THE REACHING - THEY MUST DO THE RECEIVING*
*/1B.
Notice Jesus’ Motive - Compassion (41)/*
*When Jesus felt “compassion”*
/(Matthew 9:36) "When he saw the crowds, he had compassion on them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd."/
*When people were without a leader*
/(Matthew 14:14) "When Jesus landed and saw a large crowd, he had compassion on them and healed their sick."/
*When people were sick and hurting*
/(Matthew 15:32) "Jesus called his disciples to him and said, "I have compassion for these people; they have already been with me three days and have nothing to eat.
I do not want to send them away hungry, or they may collapse on the way.""/
*When they were hungry and destitute*
/(Mark 9:22‑23) ""It has often thrown him into fire or water to kill him.
But if you can do anything, take pity on us and help us."
{23} "'If you can'?" said Jesus.
"Everything is possible for him who believes.""/
*When people were in spiritual danger*
/(Luke 7:13) "When the Lord saw her, his heart went out to her and he said, "Don't cry.""/
*When people suffered great loss*
*/2B.
Notice Jesus’ Method - Contact (41b-42)/*
*Where others withdrew Jesus reached out*
*Healing only came after Jesus touched the untouchable*
*3A.
WE MUST INSTRUCT NEW CHRISTIANS ABOUT HOW TO ACT*
*/1B.
Jesus Instructed Him to Show His Faith (43-44a)/*
*Faith that is proven is faith that is possessed*
*The first step of faith for this man was formal, public confession and confirmation!*
*/2B.
Jesus Commanded Him Share His Faith (44b)/*
*It was not that Jesus did not want this man to testify, He wanted him to testify in the proper way!*
*He needed to prove his healing!*
*We need the Show it before we try to Share it!*
*4A.
WHEN WE EXPRESS THE LOVE OF CHRIST WE WILL EXPECT THE SAME RESPONSE TO CHRIST *
*/1B.
Contagious Christianity (45a)/*
*This man could not help but tell what Jesus had done!*
/(Luke 4:43) "But he said, "I must preach the good news of the kingdom of God to the other towns also, because that is why I was sent.""/
*/2B.
Crowded Conditions/*
*Mark 2:1-2; 2:13; 3:7; 4:1*
/(Mark 9:14) "When they came to the other disciples, they saw a large crowd around them and the teachers of the law arguing with them."/
*When Jesus’ love is present you cannot keep people away!*
\\ *APPLICATION*
*/Ask God to help you “love” unbelievers without approving of their sins - this will take maturity and patience on your part./*
*/Do not expect unbelievers to act like believers!/*
*/Write down the name of at least one “unbeliever” that you can reach out to and how you are going to reach out to them./*
*/Commit yourself to disciple a new Christian - write down their name and contact them this week!/*
*/Commit to becoming a Contagious Christian and Trust Christ to draw the Crowd through your witness!/*
*/You have my permission to “talk freely, spreading the news!”/*
