Lesson 1
MOTIVES FOR SOUL WINNING
In this lesson we will look at some reasons why we should be winning souls for Christ.
-
WHEN WE WIN SOULS WE GLORIFY GOD!
1 Corinthians 10:31 Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the
glory of God.
The bible teaches us that GOD is glorified when we win souls. When a sinner gets saved
it helps Jesus Christ to know that He did not suffer on a cross for no reason. We must win souls if we are going to make God
happy with us.
2. WHEN WE WIN SOULS WE RESCUE SINNERS FROM HELL.
Psalms 9:17 The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God.
Remember the great feeling you had when you realized Jesus Christ saved you from the eternal
flames of Hell. What kind of person ( when they know the reality of Gods punishment of sinners) would allow someone they know
to go to hell forever without telling them how to get out of it. We must win souls to rescue them from hell.
3. WHEN WE WIN SOULS WE ENCOURAGE OUR BRETHREN.
1 Thessalonians 2:19 For what is our hope, or joy, or crown of rejoicing? Are not even ye in the
presence of our Lord Jesus Christ at his coming?
20 For ye are our glory and joy.
When you win a soul for Christ you encourage others to do the same. Its exciting to see
a brother/sister who is on fire for God and is adding to the family of God. Soul Winning is contagious so try it and see.
We must win souls to encourage our brethren.
4. WHEN WE WIN SOULS WE STRENGTHEN THE CHURCH.
Acts 2:47 Praising God, and having favour with all the people. And the Lord added to the church
daily such as should be saved.
Acts 4:34 Neither was there any among them that lacked: for as many as were possessors
of lands or houses sold them, and brought the prices of the things that were sold,
35 And laid them down at the apostles'
feet: and distribution was made unto every man according as he had need.
When you win souls you build the body of Christ in your church. How wonderful it would
be if you could fill your church pews. Think of the power of God in your church when the pews are full.
5. WHEN WE WIN SOULS WE QUICKEN THE RETURN OF CHRIST.
Romans 11:25 For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should
be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.
When the Lord is done calling out His family He will return to take us to our eternal home.
A place where there will be no more sorrow or pain or crying or any other bad things that we face here in this life. How awesome
it would be if you would win that one person to Christ to get Jesus on His way to get us. What a glory that shall be. We must
win souls for Christ to speed up His return
