FIELDS ARE READY, WHY ARE WE WAITING?
JOHN 4:34-38
INTRO:
Jesus met with women at the well. He broke
Racial barriers. 4:4 said He must go by Samaria.
The disciples went to get meat (McDonalds)
She met with the true living water,she in turn
Brought a city to Christ.
Jesus makes message clear to the disciples.
His mission
1.JESUS SOUGHT THE FATHERS WILL
A)My meat is to do – will of God
Luke 19:10 Mark10:45
Rom. 5:8 John9:4
John 3:16 John 17:4/John 4:35
The old rugged cross
B.) Jesus stayed with His mission
4:19-24-she tried to change the message
He came back to the living water
C.) Christians job
Great Commission
Be about the Fathers business—Jesus Luke 2:49
3. MANY ARE READY
4:35
many are searching for God, just don’t know it
a) God shaped vacuum in all, only be filled by God
A) what we must do
be as Samaritan woman-come see a man….
Phillip Acts 8:35—preached Jesus
When we win some one to Christ, only God knows
The results that are possible—she brought a city to Christ.
3. SAVED TO SHARE
we are not saved to warm the pews,but to share
the greatest tool the church has to win its city for Christ is YOU
STATISTICS TELL US
75-90 % are won thru friendship (servanthood,friendship evangelism)
17 % won thru the church planned events
there are more lost than saved in the world—job is not getting done
5 out of 100 ever ATTEMPT to win any one to Christ, any wonder
why we are where we are in America’s church’s
if we are to get to our new building, we must be serious about
soul winning, possibly the most important task in the church and
yet the most avoided.
Time to make a commitment to God, I WILL SHARE MY FAITH
