Practical Ways to Share the Gospel, Part 2

Amen. All right. Last week, not last week the week before we started on a short series talking about the gospel. So first of all, I told you about your mission, our mission is to make disciples. Remember Jesus told the man that was demon-possessed to go to tell and then to obey God in God's commandment. So we need to go wherever we go. We need to be sharing the gospel. We need to tell them about our testimony, what God has done for us. How God saved us from sin, and what God has been particularly in each of our life. That's why I should believe her. All of us need to have a story. All of us need to have a story of Faith to share the last time. I talked about some practical ways where we can share the gospel. So I wanted to show you five different ways you could Share the gospel. And last time, we looked at 3 and today, we're going to look at a two more ways that we practical ways we can share the gospel and I just love it in 1st Corinthians 9:22. Paul said, I have become all things to all people. That by all means, I might save some Sade with me. I have become all things to all people. By all means. I might save some. See that was Paul's goldballs go. Was that a my life is for Christ and posted the same thing in Galatians. 2:20. It says I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer. I will live, but Christ who lives in me. And I think that's the same call that I had. When I was in Bible School. My very first class. I took the professor somehow read 2nd Corinthians, 5:15, and it reads Christ died for you. You should no longer live for yourself and you should live for him. Like it's like I was sleeping in the class and when he read that, I just woke up.

Christ died for you. You should no longer live for yourself and live for him. Guess what? I was in college, I already had plans. I'm going to get this engineering degree and I'm going to be making that kind of money. I was so full of myself. And that's why, when I heard that verse, I'm sure I'm ready. Someone because 2nd Corinthians 5:17 all Christians have that memorized, right? If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature features. All things that have passed away. The new has come, but somehow, I've never seen verse 15 Christ died for us. We should no longer live for self. We should live for him and if you're not at that point yet where you are still full of yourself, Where it's all about you. The next degree, the next promotion, the next thing, whatever you name it that you want in your life, not that there is anything wrong with things in this life. But if your priority is not first Christ, Because he's the one who died for you. Your job, your bus did not die for you. Your degree. You going to leave it behind. So, we just have to remember, what is the priority Matthew 6:33? Seek first, the kingdom of God, and his righteousness and then all things will come after. It is a matter of priority, whatever is important for us, we make time for it. And that's why Paul's mission, was that, I have become all things to all people. So that by all means, I might save some just like Jesus said, go and make disciples. And Paul was an example of a real disciple. Everything that he did went to that, I have become all things to all people. So by all means I might save some so Paul when Paul wakes up in the morning, Posse men, what do I need to do now to save some people What do I need to do? Is that do you have a burden, like, for the loss? Do you have a burden for people? Would do not know Christ, that's when you know that your mission. Do you have a burden for people? You know, we do not know Christ, what do you do? So the message in one sentence is simply this, as far as it depends on us, we need to do whatever it takes to share the gospel with as many people as possible. As far as it depends on us, do whatever it takes to share the gospel with as many people as possible. I'm on the same boat with you a lot of us. Sometimes we don't share the gospel that because it's not priority that because that we don't believe that it is the most important thing but a lot of time we just don't know what to say. A lot of time we just don't know how to do it. A lot of times you just don't have Lena the wisdom to see how do we save that conversation to make it a gospel conversation. So a lot of us, that's where our struggle is not because that we don't love God. We don't really want to do what pleases to God. We just don't know how best to do it. So that's why I went to equip us this morning so that we can do that to some guiding principles. Remember there's not only one particular way to share the gospel if any of you have tried to share the gospel, you will know what I'm saying is true cuz it with one person what you tried They work perfectly and they even tell you all can accept price. You didn't question. They were ready and then the same thing. You're going to tell somebody else and they just look at you. Like you just fell down from Mars. There's not one particular way to share the gospel, some people works for them others, it's something else that works for them. So we have to see what piques their interest, each encounter will be very different and most likely be very different. Can be very different or do we need to strive to meet people where they are? I think a lot of them to struggle, all of us. Have sometimes we forget what we used to be. We forget the type of Personality that we have. We forget how we used to act, we forget what we used to do before, we finally, you know, take the gospel seriously. And we wanted to really walk that straight and narrow path. We forget We need to strive to meet people where they are. It didn't take you if you didn't, just get how you are overnight. So we need to be patient with people because in 1st, Peter 3:15, you Peter says always be prepared to give an answer for the hope that you have, but do so with respect gentleness and humility. Queso the people you going to talk to you need to respect them know that they have something to bring to the table. And then I added one more from last time. Keep the conversation As Natural as possible. You don't want to sound too weird tag. Sometimes you will sound weird, but a lot of time people want to say that Christians are weird people so we don't want to give them any reason to keep saying that, okay to keep the conversation As Natural as possible. Remember, it's not a script. Okay, we're not trying to get a script. We trying to genuinely love somebody and genuinely learn from them. So we need to listen with great intention of people love talking about themselves, okay? Just apply the 20-80 wool talk only for 20% and let them talk for the 80% that you go to get flu to them. It's just by asking some questions. You just asking, like some really good questions and then all of a sudden, you know, things will fall into place. Not something, you don't remember, it's not a scrape or trying to do. But there are some core elements. So, as we share the gospel with people, we always talk about God's plan in Genesis, the Bible says, when God created heaven and earth, he says, it was good. Then it said it was very good. So God created a perfect world for us, that's what God wants for us. But because of the Fall, we have a problem with sin. And if you look, you know, some of you are surprised by even though some of your actions, some of the things that you have done, you don't even believe that. Did I do that? Some of y'all didn't know anything about that. Have you ever sucked yourself with your sins? Some of you will shut yourselves so because you know, God created a perfect world, but sin messed everything up. So that's the depravity of man. And then our coming need for a savior because of send all of us need Jesus. Because Jesus says, I'm the way I am the truth and the life. No one comes to the father, except through me and he's were a lot of us who try to share the gospel with always stop there. We never ask the person. Would you like to accept Christ, okay. I know it's a simple question but you need to have people make a decision. Just like Joshua said, choose this day whom you will serve. So after we share the gospel with somebody, we need to ask them. What do you think about what I just should Cakes. And then let them make the decision where everybody think their opinion is, what is right. Personal question. What do you think about what I said? I suppose, you know, I hate you ready to accept Christ. Now, you know you need to ask the price right now. I think you would most people today, you'll have better. You'll be more effective. If that's what do you think about? What I just share. Do you think it might be? You see, you see how it's non-confrontational? Do you think that it might be time for you to accept Christ in your life? It doesn't make sense to you. Do I need to share more than we need to continue. Talking is what I'm saying? So we need to share the gospel member with gentleness and romelu tea and respect. Remember 1st Peter 3:15, memorize that one last time, we looked at three stories we saw the woman at the. Well, how Jesus confronted this woman who was dealing with a lot of immorality, but Jesus still loved her. But while Jesus loves her, Jesus was not afraid to confront her immorality, Jesus confronted, her sin head-on and then but Jesus share the gospel with him and the woman but we went to get water but she left a bucket and then went to the town and tell everyone about what God has done in her life. She that's the lesson for us. Do we need to know everything before I start sharing the gospel. We just need a transformation because a relationship with Jesus changes everything. Then we look at Nathaniel Nathaniel was the scholar. You was the intellectual. He knew everything in the Bible, he searched the scripture, but he did not have Christ because he was so focused like, you know, on the tree, he missed a forest, Daniel knew it all, you know, but he missed Jesus. But Jesus, when Jesus came to him a totally different approach with Nathaniel the Jesus just came to look at a red light in whom there is no deceit. Easy Jesus met Nathaniel. When the tunnel was that Daniel thought he was a perfect man. Really know the scripture perfectly and Jesus went there and just pay him a compliment man. I'm so proud. It's like today you would say, man, I'm so proud of you, you such a great researchers, like, you want everything to make sense, you really dig deep men when I grow up, I wanna be just like you And then now you got his attention now you know you probably might be a little bit and then he realized the Fig Tree. I saw you soon until you know how could you know that if you're not Messiah? So, we need to be tactful. You know, where whoever we share the gospel with pigtail. Okay, the way you would share the gospel with a teenager. That's not the way you going to chill with me for 50 year old. Kay different Generations. So learn to speak people's language. Then we also looked at Nicodemus was a religious leader. He was a wealthy man, Jesus approach to him, was totally different. Was like, you should know better, it's like you grew up in the church. You'll you sing in the choir o u and a leader in the church. And then you do not know Jesus, you just everything you do is just religion. Jesus just stole Nicodemus, plain black and you need to be born again, pal. It's kind of like if you grew up in the church until you get to get it together, you know what God's word said. Okay you need to be born again then today let's look at another example that was from Paul Paul when Paul went to Athens and Paul Reuben, look at his approach and sharing the gospel with the people. So remember faucet, I have become all things to all people. So by all means, I might save some. Let's see how Paul did it hear? Let's read together in Acts 17 vs, 6th and 34th is. Now while I was waiting for them in Athens, his Spirit was provoked within him. As he saw that, the city was full of idols. Do the thing here? Does your heart break for what? Breaks God? Like, when you're going to place, you see people like doing everything wrong. Does your heart break for that or do you just want to come down then? Does it feel like like your self-righteousness jumps in? And is like, man, I can't believe anybody would do that. So is it like man? I see I'm really on the Observer. I see all the idols and it's just like it breaks, my heart to see you just like a boss. You know, was provoked with him him as he saw, the city was full of idle. So he reason in the synagogue with the Jews and about persons and in the marketplace everyday with those will happen to be there. So Paul went to the synagogue and then was what was he doing? What was you doing? Come on, reason K. You need to reason with people, don't you think I can believe anybody do that? Hey, what's going on? You know, why? Why is this entertaining for you? Why? Why do you find Value in this you know? Try to understand people try to reason with them instead of trying to condemned and which is typically our predisposition and then Paul went as some of the Epicurean and still wake philosophers, also conversed with him and some said, what does this the habeler which to say other said, he seems to be a preacher of foreign divinity's because he was preaching Jesus and the resurrection and they took him and brought him to the areopagus saying may we know what this new teaching is that you are presenting. So Paul went to the synagogue and now he's talking to the intellectuals now the philosophers and anxious for you, bring some strange things to our ears. We wish to know they're for what this thing's mean. So Paul now in verse 21, now all the Athenians in the foreigners will live there with spend their time in massing except feeling or hearing something new. So, Paul standing in the midst of the areopagus said men of Athens, look at his approach to sharing the gospel of them. Men of Athens. I perceive that in every way you are very religious. Does that sound like a compliment? Does it sound like a compliment. Yes. Okay, that's still in the compliment. He's giving them a compliment men of Athens was a respectful man of Athens she was very respectful to them but even though they were calling him a babbler. Do you get offended? When somebody says something, you don't like see you soon as Christians, we need to develop fix skins. The Bible says great peace. Have those will love your lord, laughing makes them stumble play. Somebody say something mean to you, just don't take it personally. The Bible says, when they reject you that I really rejecting you, they actually rejecting. So not you, so don't take it personally. Ball steel, reverse PEC. Men of Athens had received that in every way you are very religious for, as I passed along and observe the objects of your worship. I found also an altar with this inscription to the unknown. God, So was Paul paying attention. We need to be observers when we go places. You see what people do. So you can have a conversation, observe people's manners. Observe what is important to people. So, you know how to answer? Because Bible says, always be ready to give on answer for the hope that you have in Christ. And this is what they're for you worship. What they're for you worship, as unknown this, I Proclaim to you UPS, transition statement, you have an altar to the unknown. God, let me tell you about this unknown. God.

I got to love this, it's the God who made the world and everything in it being Lord of Heaven and Earth does not live in temples made by man. Isn't that good? Nor is he served by human hands as though he needed anything? Since he himself gives to all mankind, life, and breath and everything and he made from one man every nation of mankind, to live on all the face of the Earth, having determined allotted. And the boundaries of their dwelling place that they should seek God, and perhaps feel their way toward him and find him yet. He is actually not far from each one of us. Good for her in him, we live and move and have our being. I've even some of your own profits have said, was bulbing a pension. For we are indeed his offspring being than God's Offspring. We are not to think that the Divine being is like gold or silver or stone an image formed by The Art of Imagination of Man, 3. See how Paul is confronting their Idol fall is using their own language saying that are we are all spring from God's public at your front screen from God. We cannot be worshipping Idols images that we have made for ourselves.

And then it says the times for ignorance God, overlooked but now he come in all people everywhere to do, what to replant. Suppose you got the word of God, time to repair, this is no longer. We need to be ignorant, just worshipping an unknown, God, but we do know which got it is. It's the God who created heaven and Earth because he has fixed a day on which he will judge the world in righteousness by a man whom he has appointed. And of this, he has given Assurance to All by raising him. From the dead will be talkin to you about here.

You see how Paul brings down on the gospel. And then he says, now when they heard of the resurrection of the Dead some months but other says, we will hear you again about this thing. I think a lot of us, are what keeps us from sharing? The gospel is a fear of rejection. K. If they rejected Jesus, who is God, they rejected Paul the great Apostle. Who Do You Think You Are? Purple robot you. People will say what you say makes no sense and it's totally fine. They mop ball. But all of them are Kim. But some of them wanted to hear more day. So don't think that everything has to be 100% when we share the gospel, some people will listen and some people will Nat and some people will even go as far as mocking you what you had to say. But again, remember, it's not about you. So sad. It's not about me. It's not about me. I am following emission. God says, we need to go and make disciples. So what am I going to do? I'm going to go and make disciples if they reject me, they rejecting Christ. Not me. The Bible says, how beautiful are the feet of those who bring Good Tidings? That means, good news. And he says that

How can they know without someone preaching to them? That's our responsibility. Our responsibility is to tell. We are not the one changing them. That's the work of God. So, Paul went out from their myths and then listen to verse 34. But snowmen drained him and believed Among room. Also were dionysius the areopagite and a woman named Damaris and others with them. That's why I Love The Gospel. They even give you proof. It ain't just as some believe, but they gave you names. See, that's why we can rely on the gospel, so that was Paul's way. So now this look at some practical ways, some of them, we saw it already. So I'm going to be very quick if you were not here, last time there was a June 30th, so you can go back and listen to the recording on YouTube. So Jesus style, the way Jesus did it. Jesus. Start sharing Jesus. The way we see that sharing starts with caring Jesus, when he went to the woman at the, well, is because Jesus cared for that woman and Jesus show. Genuine care for that woman. Jesus was very intentional member. Jesus had to go through Samaria, okay? That was not the common route for Jewish because the Jews and the Samaritans, they were antagonistic toward one. Another date. They had some some issues. They had to work so they would go all around Samaria but not going flu, but Jesus went through Samaria as a rabbi. He was not even supposed to be speaking to a woman by himself, but he still went and make sure you you said all the disciples to something else, so that he could have some personal time with this woman because he knew the disciples would not like it for him to be talking to a sinful woman. So Jesus was very intentional. So, make sharing the gospel your day today, Mission, Jesus said, my will is to do what the father has sent me to do. And then don't be afraid to confront sin, although Jesus love this woman. Jesus was very intentional. Jesus, made an appointment an appointment to go see this woman, but Jesus confronted her sin had on. Jesus told him that go call your husband, but Jesus already knew she didn't have a husband because she was married five different times. And now she said, I'm not doing this again. Let's just move in together. But Jesus said that to confront her saying and then Jesus confronted her sin, and she repented, and she went, but Jesus loved her while Jesus love their Jesus. Still confronted her. And then whenever possible, give a compliment just like, Jesus, give a compliment to Nathaniel que Jesus complimented him, you know, for searching the scriptures. Next one. The second one we learn is to be friendly and intentional that was from dr. Timothy from Southern Baptist, Theological Seminary. He said it Street approach to sharing the gospel first earlier. So, pay attention, k, x plore. Like look at the environment, like see what's going on. Steady the people you want to share the gospel with studying a place where you are and kind of see you. No pay at 10. I'd like to be a student, you know, of that person. You want to share the gospel with. So You observe question you listen more than talking then. The next step is you stimulate. You saw how I made that bridge that connection, you know, when he was sharing the gospel, you transition, to the gospel, to stimulate Braves, you do bring some spiritual things into the conversation. You see how Paul says, hey, you know, one of your poet says that, you know, a, we are offspring of God and in Palm in his transition and then started sharing the gospel a 4-string of God, can we be worshipping an image? You know what can that do you see? So you need to pay attention to the person you're talking to After You Were explor You observe them and you make a bridge into the gospel and then once you make that bridge, you go ahead and share the gospel just like, Paul, just share the gospel with the people in Athens and pretty much the entire Bible in a few verse. Give me the whole history, see God created the world. And then you have got already made a plan for Jesus to come to die for our sins. And then Jesus resurrected from the dead, all of us want to live forever.

All of us. F K. We don't want to go without giving a fight, okay? So don't discount the resurrection, take people's gold mede Jesus, and there's no Resurrection apart from Jesus, Romans road. And remember, I told you, those Bible verses, you need to memorize them pretty much as the story. Nobody is perfect member, we need a fall in world. No one is righteous. Not even one of us. All of us have messed up. Anybody here has not messed up. Are you perfect one? You don't need to be here, okay? But Romans 6:23, since the rages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life. You see while we were still Sinners, woman 58 Christ died for us. It was that when we were a perfect Christ died for us, was even in our sin and in women's 10 nine. It says, if you confess with your mouth, that Jesus is Lord, believe in your heart, that God raised him from the dead. What's going to happen? You will be safe. And Romans, 10:13 says everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be. Did it say some people? Everyone even your haters. Even the people you don't want to be safe. Okay that got this is everyone. Okay, everyone men's everyone. Okay? John 3:16 will ever believes that any woman 51. Therefore since we have been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. So God takes away our sin. Now we can live in peace. Another method that we can use to share. The gospel is what we call the four spiritual law. And the first floor is that God loves you and offers a wonderful plan for your life. That God love you today. A lot of people struggle with love, they don't trust anybody and they don't really think that anybody loves them because of the way that they grew up, probably they had a father were bending them. Probably, you know, family members have done things to do them. That that just makes them down with love or because of experiences. In love in life. They don't trust anybody, They Don't Love. With Winston, when you meet with somebody like that, you can share this the the the four spiritual laws of a. I know that this has been your experience. But can I tell you about somebody who will always love you? Somebody would never disappoints. See, not only he loves you, but he has a plan for your life and that plan is wonderful. John 3:16 Says, for God. So loved the world that he gave his only son that whoever believes in him, will not perish, but have eternal life and you tell them just bring it home for God. So, loved me, even me that he gave his only son for me, even me that if I believe in him, I will not perish, but I will have what you turn on life. That's what Jeremiah 29:11 tells us. I know the plans, I have for you, they are plans to prosper you and not to harm you, but to give you hope and to give you a future, I was reading a difference in life. And in my mind, you want me to read this one for you. I'll read this trip is for. I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord plans for welfare and not evil to give you a future. And as a kid, I memorize it in a different translation, okay, loves you. And God has a plan for your life, then remember God created a perfect world, but sin messed. Everything else men is sinful and we are separated from God because of our sin. We are now separated from God. Therefore we cannot know and experience God's love and plan for our life better in life, but somehow they can't find it. So they'll try education. When you get that education, that's it. You know, if y'all, like when I got my doctorate and then, you know, I kind of felt something in the next morning. My wife told me to take the trash out, to take the trash out for the sort of thing. You go ahead and get money when you don't have it. It's important. But the moment you start climbing, you keep wanting one more dollars, even if we have a million, two million, three million, 5 million, you still want more. Okay, you got that job. All my ideal job is this the moment you get that job, then what happens?

That just like everything in life, you see it, just never satisfied. But that's why, you know, God, that's a long number to stay. We are sinful. We are separated from God. And because of that, we cannot fully experience God love and his plan for our life. That's what Romans 3:23 says, all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. That's the solution. Jesus Christ, is God's only provision for men sent. You can know and experience God's love and plan for your life. And remember, you have to say it in context, telling the person really is messed up and the only solution is Jesus Christ in God made that provision for you and for me so that we can know God and that the only way we do it is flu, Jesus Christ, is women's 58 said, but God shows his love to us while we were still sinners Christ died for us, John 14:6. I am the way I am. The true fan. Life Jesus says no one comes to the father, except for me you tell it what you really looking for that you tried and education in Detroit in your career you tried and relationship. That never satisfies. It's Jesus, that's real. That's what you really looking for and then that's when you get to the choice. The choice. We must individually receive Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord, then we can know, and experience, God's love and plan for our lives. We always got to get to that choice, okay? Asking people to make a choice and that's why you share your testimony, okay? And I think that's the problem. A lot of his don't have a testimony to share. And that's why our gospel is really annoying void. And then we are ashamed of it because you posted, I'm not ashamed of the Gospel. It is the power of God unto salvation. How can you share something? You've never experienced? And that's where I think a lot of us have a problem because we've never really experienced this. We have not personally really received Jesus in our life even though we grew up in the church then we don't really have something to share. Like we cannot really show the person. This is how my life is to be. This is how I am now and why Jesus is the difference, because the moment I really started experiencing Jesus in my life. That's what made the difference. You think I will be here right now? I had other plans. But because I have experienced Jesus, I'm leaving my best life. And it's not because of the money, but it's because I'm doing what God has called me to do date. So that's Lord number for you, tell people to accept Christ and the one quick way you could do, that is rvr, repent believe and receive repent, believe and receive, that's one quick way. I ate all that you have to do you repent from your stub doing life? You away accept Christ in your life and all will be well, cuz that's what 1st John 1:9. Says, if you confess your sin, God is faithful. And just to forgive you, some of your sin, all your sins and to cleanse you from all unrighteousness. John 1:12 says, but to all, we did receive him. Who believed in his name, he gave them the right to become who children of God. That's the hope that you bring two people and the last one Let me show you is the three circles, the three circles, and the three circles you share with people, especially when people share an issue or problem or complaint or concern with you. Anybody ever come and complain to you. Come on now.

Every second if you paying attention, people, complain is always coming in there. My stuff to me, people typically when people come to you, there's a problem. There's an issue. There's a complaint. Does it concern the sharing with you? And as they share it with you, that's your hint to share God's plan. Show how the world is broken. And then, you share the gospel with him. Let me show you just a quick video on how this work on, how you can use the three circles to share the gospel.

So, we've been in this world and it's characterized by Brokenness. We don't have to look very hard to see. This is not the original design is perfect and the way that we have gotten ourselves into Brokenness, just threw something at the Bible called sin, sin tan is turning away from God, because I am pursuing our own way. And that resist, the Brokenness broken was eventually loses his dad and his death is separated from God forever, so he's made a way out and that way, it's Jesus Jesus, and the debt that we deserve. Our place and died on the cross, and his body is broken for us, and three days after he died, he rose from the dead, and he made a way out of Brooklyn and people trying anything to get out of a relationship, education, on drugs and alcohol, but none of these things can get us out of your phone. That's the only way out is Jesus. And if we return from our sin and believe that Jesus died for us and rose from the dead, we can leave Brokenness and grow in a relationship with God. Has design and more than that. We can go back in the Brokenness, help others come through him.

I have to ask myself. Where are we do? Where do you think you are?

Does that make sense? The three Circle, that's something you can use like when you're at a restaurant with somebody and you can just go ahead and just get a piece of napkin, okay? And in a while, you just using the napkin, you say, hey, can I share something with you after they just told you man, my job is so stressful experience, just no matter whatever you tried is always a problem. If you know that reminds me of something I learned in church, we called the three circles. The circle. Number one is that Circle number to, you know, God, you know, we live in a broken world and no matter how good something gets somehow, it gets boil at some point. I know, you know. And and it was because this our world is broken because our world is broken. It just napping in the world ever really satisfies them Circle number one, but you see God design of her, perfect world for us. In Genesis 1:30. When it says, and when God created the Willis is, it was very good. It was a very good thing that God designed the world, God designed, it would be perfect to really enjoy everything but send mess everything else and that's why we're trying to fill all those Wards in all those different places. And really, what we need is is is the gospel Cuz the gospel instead of following our own desires that leads to brooken mess. But instead we're following God's plan and winds. We follow God's plan, then everything falls into place because it Matthew 6:33 say, Seek first, the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and then does it. Take some things will fall into place all things. Everything will fall into place. Jeremiah 2:13 says, for my people have committed two evils, they have forsaken me, the Fountain of Living Waters, and who you and Al systems for themselves. Look at this broken cisterns, that can hold in the water. So it's all those things. We put our hope in you know, education career, the big things that we love again. There's nothing wrong with those things. You need to get some of those things and enjoy life, but don't put them on top of God. It's a priority issue. Garden 31st and all those other things that you need, God will give them to you. Is a message or not. She'll people need the gospel safe with me. People need the gospel. The most important thing you can do as a Christian, is sharing your faith with others. That's why Jesus died, not repeat this part with me. You don't have to be perfect and sharing your face that you have to practice. Sharing your faith. One conversation can have a lasting impact in somebody else's life. You believe this. So, can we start practicing our faith? Practice makes perfect. So we need to start practicing today or just input. It this way you have made us for yourself, a Lord and our heart is restless until it rest in you Ecclesiastes tells us the same thing. He made us, he has made everything beautiful in its time also. He has put what? Eternity in our heart she does that search in each one of us. We want something more. And I'm lazy. Pascal, just nailed it. He put it this way. There is a god-shaped vacuum in the heart of every person which cannot be filled by any created thing. But only by God the Creator made known through Jesus Christ. At the end of the day all that we really need is Jesus Christ. So let's pray as Cameron and my wife comes in and sing the last song so we can end our time. Ask yourself this morning, 8.
