"Obeying The Great Commission: Move With Compassion”
"Obeying The Great Commission: Move With Compassion” Acts 10:36-38 ESV Why did Jesus go about doing good everywhere he went? The answer is simple: COMPASSION Matthew 9:35-38 ESV Luke 10:25-37 ESV But here’s a key to effective ministry: You can’t see people’s true need from a distance. To truly see them and their needs, you have to care enough to get up close and personal. You have to invest yourself in their lives. The story of the Good Samaritan also reminds us that Christlike compassion has a cost. Ephesians 4:30-32 ESV Having received the compassion (mercy) of Christ ourselves, let us look for opportunities to show His compassion to others. _____ All music used during this service is reproduction-licensed through the following CCLI Licenses: CCLI Copyright License # 227222 CCLI Streaming Plus License # 22513837 Instrumental Worship By: William Augusto "Soaking in His Presence" www.williamaugusto.com
"Obeying The Great Commission: Cast Your Dragnet”
"Obeying The Great Commission: Cast Your Dragnet” Matthew 13:47 NIV sagéné: Dragnet Original Word: σαγήνη Part of Speech: Noun, Feminine Transliteration: sagéné Pronunciation: sah-GAY-nay — a large fishing-net, a drag-net used in catching fish that swim in shoals ** In a biblical context, a shoal of fish refers to a great multitude or crowd of fish swimming together. In first-century Galilee large dragnets (seines) were hauled by teams of fishermen from boats or from the shoreline. Luke 5:1-11 NIV Matthew 13:47-50 NIV 1.) Kingdom evangelism does not discriminate. Its invitation must be extended to “all kinds of people”, even the bottom dwellers. No one should be excluded from or crossed off the invitation list. 2.) Proximity is not inclusion. Good fish (people that will escape final judgment) are those who genuinely repent and place their faith and trust in Jesus Christ. Our job is to drag the gospel net through the community and bring in whatever we catch. It’s time to cast your net for Jesus! _____ All music used during this service is reproduction-licensed through the following CCLI Licenses: CCLI Copyright License # 227222 CCLI Streaming Plus License # 22513837 Instrumental Worship By: William Augusto "Soaking in His Presence" www.williamaugusto.com
