    FIRM FOUNDATION-OUR IDENTITY: Knowing Jesus

    FOCAL PASSAGE: Matthew 16:13-17 

     

    KNOWING CHRIST FOR SURE - PERSONALLY

    • One reason we do not share with others is because we do not have the assurance that we are going to heaven.

    • I John 5:13, Ephesian 2:8-9 (KJV)

    • Faith is the key that opens the door of heaven.

    • You must have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. 

    • Romans 10:13

     

    LEARNING TO SHARE

    • Evangelism was Jesus’ life purpose.  Luke 19:10

    • Methods Of Sharing:  Personal Testimony, Roman’s Road, One Verse Evangelism, Track Evangelism, and Evangelism Explosion.  We will soon share these learning opportunities with you, so you can become equipped.

     

    INVITING TO SHOW YOU CARE

     

          Inviting fulfills God’s purpose for your life.  John 20:21

     

    1. WE ARE CALLED TO BE SPIRITUAL WATCHMEN

    • Ezekiel 33:1-9 

    • We are watchmen for our generation.

     

    2. HOW CAN WE DO THIS?

    • Begins with living a life that is different from those around us. 

    • Invite them into our lives: to our homes, to join us in our activities, eventually to the place where we study God’s Word and worship. (Christmas season).

    • The reality?  You are already involved in Evangelism. You are already helping people “KNOW CHRIST”.  The Question is what is it they “KNOW ABOUT CHRIST” from your lifestyle?

    • Our first pillar must be EVANGELISM – helping people “KNOW CHRIST” PERSONALLY!

     

    LIVE IT OUT

    • Š Can you say without a shadow of doubt that you KNOW CHRIST beyond an intellectual or temporary level?  Do you KNOW HIM PERSONALLY?

    • Š What steps do you need to take today to demonstrate you are the kind of watchman God wants you to be?

    • Š How will you genuinely show people you are concerned about where they will spend eternity?
