Topic: โจMAKE YOUR EVANGELISM COMPLETEโจ
๐ As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby: If so be ye have tasted that the Lord is gracious (1 Peter 2:2-3).
When you lead people to Christ to receive salvation, at that moment, theyโre still spiritual babies that must begin to learn the Word of God. The Word of God is the food for the human spirit; itโs the only material that guarantees spiritual growth. Therefore, new converts must be taught the Word and given the opportunity to learn the Word of God.
This is where going to church plays a key role. When you win souls, immediately introduce them to the local church where they can participate in the things of God and be trained and well-nurtured spiritually. When you fail to bring them into the church, youโre like a woman who gives birth to a baby, leaves the baby at the hospitalโs maternity ward and goes home. Thatโs absurd.
It's important to take those you've led to Christ to your church. Donโt tell them to go to any nice church. Thatโs like having a child and saying, "This child can go to any mother." Instead, guide them to the church where you are. If the person believed your message about Jesus, they ought to know you came from somewhere.
When you bring them to your church, you can guarantee their spiritual growth because you know what theyโre going to hear. Connect them with someone from your churchโa leader or even the pastor. Let them know youโre excited about their salvation and that others will be excited about it too.
Make your evangelism complete. Help them see that their growth in Christ is a priority and that the church is the best environment for them to flourish spiritually. If youโre not yet the member of a local church, or seeking one, you could begin by contacting the person or church who gave you this book, or log on to www.christembassy.org for more information.
๐ฃ๏ธ PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for the privilege of leading others to Christ and guiding them in their journey of faith. I carry out evangelism with wisdom and love, ensuring those I lead to Christ are nurtured and established in the truth. Thank you for the church as a place of growth, fellowship and training in righteousness, in Jesusโ Name. Amen.
FURTHER STUDY
Acts 2:41-47 Then they that gladly received his word were baptized: and the same day there were added [unto them] about three thousand souls. 42 And they continued stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers. 43 And fear came upon every soul: and many wonders and signs were done by the apostles. 44 And all that believed were together, and had all things common; 45 And sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all [men], as every man had need. 46 And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, did eat their meat with gladness and singleness of heart, 47 Praising God, and having favour with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved.
Ephesians 4:11-12 And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; 12 For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:
Hebrews 10:25 Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some [is]; but exhorting [one another]: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.
