By sharing the Gospel (Good News) of Jesus Christ with lost sinners, we are working to reconcile them with God, which is through faith in Jesus Christ. Romans 5:1 says we have peace with God through Jesus Christ. That is, through the new birth. My primary goal in my ministry is to preach the Gospel of free grace to lead lost sinner to Christ. 1st Corinthians 3:9 teaches that we are labourers "together with God." SOULWINNING!
Jesus promised in 𝗠𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘄 𝟭𝟬:𝟰𝟮, “𝗔𝗻𝗱 𝘄𝗵𝗼𝘀𝗼𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝘀𝗵𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗴𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗱𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗸 𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗼 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘀𝗲 𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘁𝗹𝗲 𝗼𝗻𝗲𝘀 𝗮 𝗰𝘂𝗽 𝗼𝗳 𝗰𝗼𝗹𝗱 𝘄𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗼𝗻𝗹𝘆 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗻𝗮𝗺𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗮 𝗱𝗶𝘀𝗰𝗶𝗽𝗹𝗲, 𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗹𝘆 𝗜 𝘀𝗮𝘆 𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂, 𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗵𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗶𝗻 𝗻𝗼 𝘄𝗶𝘀𝗲 𝗹𝗼𝘀𝗲 𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗿𝗲𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗱.” The Lord promised to even reward those who give a cup of water to a disciple who follows Christ. So, if you share my ministry with others—by sharing sermons, articles, memes, blogs, et cetera—the Lord will reward you as His child for helping the cause of Christ. Jesus said without Him we cannot accomplish anything (John 15:1-5). That is, of our own accord we are worthless to the cause of Christ. We need the power of the Holy Spirit! One of my favorite sermons by Pastor Jack Hyles (1926-2001) is titled, 'The Spirit's Abiding.' Nothing can happen until the Holy Spirit come down!!!
The most important thing when sharing any ministry is to make sure that the ministry is not preaching a counterfeit gospel, or promoting Satan's corrupt Bible versions—which are destructive to one's faith. By God's grace I have had excellent Bible teachers (Jack Hyles, John R. Rice, Hank Lindstrom, Ralph Yankee Arnold, Curtis Hutson, Lee Roberson, Max D. Younce, J. Vernon McGee, Brad Strand, Harry Ironside). You can trust the sermons and writings of those faithful soulwinning men, who were all true to the free grace Gospel.
Very few preachers today expose false prophets, which is really bad. A big part of my ministry is contending for the faith (Jude 1:3). I am grateful that you want to be a part of my ministry. The best way to do so is to start sharing the Gospel with others, so that they can know for sure that they're going to Heaven when they die. I started a new soulwinning website in 2006, dedicated to teach and inspired believers to go soulwinning.
I often pray to God to help me accomplish more, but I am just one man. That is where saints like you come into the picture, because you my dear friend can be an extension of my labors (and we both servants of Christ our dear Savior), reaching people with the Gospel that I cannot do. To someone, you are “𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘂𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗺𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗵” (𝗔𝗰𝘁𝘀 𝟭:𝟴𝗯). There are people whom you can reach, who will only listen to you, but they'd never listen to me (and vise versa). To someone, we may be the only Jesus they ever know.
When Jesus was here on earth, He was the light of the world (John 8:12, 9:5). But now that He has departed to Heaven, Jesus said we saints are the light of the earth (Matthew 5:14). That means we are their only hope of ever getting saved, because we are here in Christ's stead, ambassadors to a dark and sin-cursed world. I wrote this simple article which explains how easy it is to be saved. I also highly recommend reading this helpful book by Michael P. Bowen titled, "I Never Knew You," which clarifies the simplicity of the Gospel.
Have you met the precious Master Jesus Christ, dear friend...
Then I Met The Master
