Introduction

Introduction

Most Christians do not believe it is possible for them to engage in a life of personal witness for Christ. That is why 90% of followers of Jesus will never share their faith once in their lifetime. Over this 8-week series will simplify the faith-sharing life down to three practical elements - Praying, Caring and Sharing. Every one of us can pray for lost people! That is something 100% of Christians can do easily. If we pray for lost people regularly we will naturally develop a deeper desire to care for them. And there is no way we can grow in caring for them without ultimately wanting to share with them. Together we will learn how to cooperate with God and others to bring lost people one step closer to Jesus!

What is faith sharing?

Definition: - To share our faith is to cooperate with God and others to lovingly bring a person one step at a time closer to Christ

Breaking it down

We Cooperate with God – He is the evangelist

People are looking for God because God is looking for people and is revealing Himself (witnessing) to them

God has revealed and is revealing Himself
God is seeking lost people
God always shows up
God is responsible for the results

Romans 1:18-20

1 Corinthians 3:5

Matthew 28:20

John 6:44

When we understand this we will realize that people are more open to spiritual conversation than we think they are
We Cooperate with Others

God uses many Christians to reach one person

We have different roles to play in witness-life

1 Corinthians 3:6-9

John 4:35-38

One step closer to Christ
There are two lies that hinder witness life

Lie #1 – we only truly witness when we lead a person all the way to Christ

Lie #2 – This spiritual decision to accept Christ should occur in one meeting with the person

People come to the Lord one step at a time by making a series of mini decisions (the rate at which people move toward Christ varies)

There are roadblocks on the spiritual journey

Spiritual Roadblocks (2 Corinthians 4:4)

Emotional Roadblocks

I’ve done bad things; God can’t forgive me
A good God would not have let that happen to me

Intellectual Roadblocks

How can you believe what you cannot see?
Science disproves God
There cannot be one way to God
The Bible was written by humans
Jesus never said that he was God

Volitional Roadblocks

If I became a Christian I have to follow God’s guidelines for life. I’m not ready for that

How do we tell people about Jesus?

Prayer
Care
Share
