Responses

• Its my job…

• There might be someone in there needing to be saved

• We’re a little weird

1. Jesus died for the sins of every person, in every country in the whole world, and He WANTS every person SAVED and in HEAVEN instead of in HELL.

2. We who are going to Heaven are RESPONSIBLE to do all we can to SPREAD the good NEWS of the GOSPEL.

3. Our efforts to SPREAD the GOSPEL are to be PROACTIVE and DILLIGENT People don’t get SAVED just because we “do CHURCH”.

4. The easiest thing in the world is for CHURCH to become SELF-FOCUSED.

Parable of the Lighthouse

5. Our efforts to reach out are to be CORPORATE.
