Seek and Save the Lost (10/03/21)
There are a lot of different programs, activities and events taking place in the church. There is a lot of “stuff” going on. We must never forget our chief objective: “To seek and save the lost”. JESUS came to seek and save the lost. We must seek and save the lost. Time “spent” doing things that do not serve Kingdom purposes is just that…time “spent”. Time “invested” in doing the work of the ministry will yield GOD ORDAINED “returns”.
“9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.” 2 Peter 3:9-:10 (King James Version of THE HOLY BIBLE)
“9 The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.
10 But the day of the Lord will come like a thief. The heavens will disappear with a roar; the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth and everything done in it will be laid bare.[a]” 2 Peter 3:9-:10 (New International Version of THE HOLY BIBLE)

15 That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.
16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.” John 3:14-:18 (King James Version of THE HOLY BIBLE)

Please give us the wisdom to know when to use the various strategies that you teach us. IN THE MATCHLESS AND MAJESTIC NAME OF JESUS, we pray. Amen.
