  THIS GOSPEL [FRUITFULNESS] Tuesday Teaching and Miracle Service Preacher: Rev. Dr. Ebenezer Okronipa 📖 Genesis 1:28 WHAT IS FRUITFULNESS? The word fruit comes from the Greek word “Karpos” (often spelled Kapos in notes), meaning: The result of life in a living organism The visible evidence of vitality Fruit is proof that you matter. Fruit defines your existence. When you refuse to produce fruit, extinction begins. God wants us to do well in the area of fruitfulness. KEY TRUTHS ABOUT LIFE AND FAITH Sympathy never changes lives. Faith changes circumstances. If something happens to you, the solution is in you. 📖 1 Corinthians 10:13 WHAT IS TRUE FRUIT? True fruit is contained in souls. True fruit is: The product of the gospel The produce of the gospel Lives translated from death to life 📖 Mark 16:15 📖 Matthew 24:14 📖 Romans 1:16 The gospel is: The power of God The wisdom of God 📖 1 Corinthians 1:18 The gospel is God’s message to men that brings salvation. GOD SAVES MEN THROUGH MEN God does not save men by angels. He saves men by men. 📖 2 Corinthians 5:18–19 📖 Matthew 28:19 📖 Acts 1:8 There must be a message in your mouth. 📖 Matthew 24:14 WARNING: THE DANGER OF UNFRUITFULNESS If you are not fruitful in soul winning, you are jeopardizing your future. Souls are valuable. The devil fears the gospel — therefore he brings distractions. Distraction is one of Satan’s most effective weapons. Satan is aggressive against the gospel because: The gospel is the power that destroys his kingdom. THREE ILLUSTRATIONS ABOUT THE GOSPEL A gospel kept in the church is power being wasted. A seed kept in the bank does not grow. Fire that stays in one place eventually dies. The gospel is fire — if it does not spread, it weakens. WHAT MAKES THE GOSPEL EFFECTIVE? Spiritual power activated by prayer and the Word. Communal love — unity and fellowship. Population — growth through evangelism. Seven Non-Negotiable Reasons Every Christian Must Preach the Gospel 1. Jesus Himself is a Soul Winner 📖 Luke 19:10 📖 1 Timothy 1:15 2. The Harvest is Great 📖 Luke 10:2 📖 Luke 9:1–2 3. The Labourers Are Few Everyone who believes must labor with Him. 4. The Great Commission 📖 Mark 16:15 📖 Matthew 28:19 5. Because of Unfulfilled Prophecy Concerning His Return 📖 Ezekiel 33:6–8 6. Because Jesus is Alive and Working There is no miracle without the gospel. CONCLUSION Fruitfulness is not optional — it is a command. 📖 Genesis 1:28 The proof of life is fruit. The proof of Christianity is souls. If the gospel is in you, it must move through you.
