8 Biblical Ways To Win Souls For Jesus Part 8 | Adult Bible Class

Lesson 8 – By Putting into Practice What We Have Preached Intro: In this last lesson in our series I wish to share from my personal experience: "Go to Scriptures” to help win those whom we have opportunity to reach. 1. My greatest soul-winning tip: Start where we should go before going where we could go. The Word of God tells us where to start: "Some will cross the ocean but not the street." • Start with our own family. Application of 1 Timothy 5:8 – Example of Jesus. John 1:11 – Example of Andrew. John 1:41 – Example of the man of Gadara. Mark 5:19 • Go to our own neighbors. – The admonition from Jesus. Matthew 19:19; Mark 12:30-31 – The instruction from Apostles. Galatians 5:14; James 2:8 – The conviction from the Good Samaritan. Luke 10:36-37 – Some tips to win our neighbors: Invite them to church or church function; give them the "?" tract; show concern for their soul, draw the net. • Begin in our city. Luke 24:47 2. Tips for witnessing to Muslims = "those who follow Islam" • Realize the Bible is our weapon not apologetics. 2 Corinthians 10:4; Ephesians 6:17; Matthew 4:4 = when they quote the Quran I say "the Scripture says” • Refer to Scripture where Abraham is willing to sacrifice Isaac. Genesis 22:6-8 • Isaac not Ismael is the promised seed. Galatians 4:24 • Jesus is from the seed of Abraham and Isaac. Luke 3:34 • God sent The Savior not a prophet. John 1:29; Hebrews 1:1-3 3. Tips for witnessing to Hindus = For all other polytheistic & pantheistic religions. • Declare there is only one true God. Isaiah 42:8, 45:22, 46:9; 1 Timothy 2:5 • Proclaim the deity of Christ. John 1:1; 1 John 5:7 = the Trinitarian formula. Point out that Jesus did miracles because He was God. John 14:9-11 • Preach the love of God. 1 John 4:7; Romans 5:8; John 3:16 note this is the order in which I use in India. It's difficult to resist God's love! Conclusion: My prayer is that souls will be in Heaven as a result of these lessons. Thank you for coming to hear me teach. Linda and I appreciate each of you. Love & Prayers, Pastor Mike
