Here are the completed notes from the Sunday Morning Service, September 20, 2015:<\/span><\/p>\n

Something not to be taken lightly<\/h3>\n

Scripture: Ezekiel 33:1-11, Matthew 28:18-20, Acts 20:24-27<\/strong>
\n-All of us have areas of Influence and opportunity
\n-What are we doing with that when it comes to truth\/the Gospel?<\/p>\n

1. The Need<\/h4>\n

A. Lost Condition
\nB. Eternal Suffering<\/p>\n

2. The Knowledge<\/h4>\n

The Gospel<\/span>: The death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus the Christ
\nLuke 12:2-5
\nA. Something you personally receive
\nB. Something you personally share<\/p>\n

3. The Responsibility<\/h4>\n

Matthew 28:18-20\u00a0 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power (authority) is given unto me in heaven and in earth.\u00a0\u00a0 Go ye<\/span> therefore, and teach all nations,<\/span> baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:\u00a0\u00a0 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.
\nA. If not you who?
\nB. If not now when?
\n2 Corinthians 6:2b\u00a0 Behold, now<\/span> is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.<\/p>\n

4. The Methods<\/h4>\n

-The methods of reaching people

\n“Prayer will become effective when we stop using it as a substitute for obedience.” A.W. Tozer
\nB. Sharing your heart and the gospel one on one
\nC. Invite to church
\nD. Arrange a Pastoral visit
\n1 Corinthians 3:5-8\u00a0 Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers through whom you believed, as the Lord gave to each one? I planted, Apollos watered, but God gave the increase. So then neither he who plants is anything, nor he who waters, but God who gives the increase. Now he who plants and he who waters are one, and each one will receive his own reward according to his own labor.
\nE. Giving literature<\/p>\n

5. The Accountability<\/h4>\n

Acts 20:26-27\u00a0 Therefore I testify to you this day that I am\u00a0 innocent of the blood of all men.\u00a0 For I have not shunned to declare to you the whole counsel of God.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
