LESSON 11: THE FIELD
Soul Winning Scripture Verses:
“The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that winneth souls is wise.” [Proverbs 11:30]
“And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.” [Matthew 4:19]
If you have been doing your previous assignments, you should have:
1. Shared your testimony of how you got saved with at least three other people.
2. Invited 17 different people to church.
3. Memorize Romans 3:23, Romans 6:23, Romans 5:8, Romans 10:13, John 3:16, Isaiah 53:6, Proverbs 11:30, Matthew 4:19, and Acts 1:8.
4. Placed 119 Gospel tracts in various public and private locations.
5. Personally given 26 Gospel tracts to people that does not fellowship with our congregation.
Where To Go Soul Winning
Fill in the blanks in the following Biblical passages:
“But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you; and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in , and in all , and in , and unto the uttermost part of the .” [Acts 1:8]
Explain what each of these four areas are literally and symbolically:
1. Jerusalem –
2. Judea –
3. Samaria –
4. “Uttermost part of the earth” –
While we need to follow a systematic plan for soul winning, we still need to keep our hearts open to the guidance of the Holy Spirit soul winning:
• “Then the said unto Philip, near, and thyself to this chariot.” [Acts 8:29]
Here Philip was have a great revival in Samaria and seeing multitudes get saved. But each and every soul is important to God. Since Philip’s heart was soft to God’s guidance, he was used to win this man to Christ.
We cannot win a single person to Christ if we stay seated on our pews. We need to take the Gospel to others. Confrontational soul winning is not popular and many churches have embraced the false doctrine of “lifestyle evangelism”. We need to tell the Gospel to other, not just live it. Don’t fall into the comfortable trap that Satan has set using the ecumenical movement and churches. He doesn’t want you to share the Gospel and obey God.
• “And he said unto them, ye into all the world, and the gospel to every creature.” [Mark 16:15]
The Key Word In The Commandment Of Soul Winning Is GO!
