Evangelism: Sharing God's Love with Others | Killy & J.John #13

Pastor Joe Martin, Jr.

2024-09-10

People are inherently hungry for God, and when they find Him, they discover love, security, and significance. This hunger is universal, transcending cultural and social boundaries. The journey of faith often begins with a personal encounter, as illustrated by the story of a Greek Cypriot who found Christ through a college friend. This newfound faith led to immediate acts of kindness and evangelism, demonstrating the transformative power of God’s love. The intentionality of sharing one’s faith is crucial, whether it’s through small acts of kindness or larger evangelistic efforts. Carrying simple items like a toothbrush, socks, and a wooden cross can open doors to meaningful conversations about Jesus. The pace of life should align with God’s pace, which is often a walk rather than a run, except when it involves salvation. This principle is evident in the story of hiring a football stadium for a Christian event, which required faith and patience but resulted in thousands coming to Christ. The Great Commission calls for making disciples, baptizing them, and teaching them to mature in their faith. This process underscores the importance of the local church, which serves as a community for worship, instruction, fellowship, and service. Loving the church, the bride of Christ, is essential, and speaking negatively about it is akin to offending Christ Himself.
