Are You Witnessing For Jesus

 

A Story About A Game Warden And A Fisherman

Teaching Us How To Witness For Jesus

     A fisherman figured out a way to catch hundreds of fish. He would light a stick of dynamite and throw it into the water and boom he would catch hundreds of fish. One day a game warden met the fisherman and said I'm going out on the boat with you today because you're bringing in too many fish. I'm gonna see how you catch hundreds of fish when we both get out into the middle of the lake.

     When they got out into the middle of the lake, the fisherman lit a stick of dynamite and threw it into the water and boom he again caught hundreds of fish. The game warden said you can't do this and I'm gonna arrest you. In response, the fisherman lit another stick of dynamite, threw it to the game warden and said What you gonna do? Fish or argue? Jesus told us to be fishers of men; Brother Bob says What you gonna do? Fish or argue? Fish everywhere for lost sinners telling them how to be saved. 

Jesus said at Matthew 4:19 Follow me and I will make you fishers of men

What you gonna do? Fish or argue?

Fish for men, win souls, and witness Jesus everywhere

There are millions of lost souls needing Jesus at Walmart and everywhere

Tell people get saved; repent decide to stop sinning; confess Jesus to be God

Believe that Jesus died for you on the cross, was buried, and rose again 

God's Program For Christians After Salvation

Stated At Proverbs 24:10-12

     Take time to read God's program for christians after salvation at Proverbs 24:10-12 about witnessing Jesus to lost sinners. If thou faint in the day of adversity thy strength is small. If thou forbear to deliver them that are drawn unto death and those that are ready to be slain; If thou sayest Behold, we knew it not; doth not He (Jesus) that pondereth the heart consider it? and He that keepeth thy soul, doth not He know it? and shall not He render to every man according to his works?

     In other words, God's program for christians after salvation is to lead lost sinners to the Lord Jesus Christ while they daily stay in fellowship with Jesus denying sin. Jesus knows each christians' heart and keeps track of how they witness Jesus to lost sinners. Jude 22 tells us And of some have compassion, making a difference; And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire, hating even the garment spotted by the flesh. Christians need to be concerned about lost sinners everywhere that will go to hell if they reject Jesus. Remember Jesus had someone witness to you when you were a lost sinner. Colossians 4:5 says Walk in wisdom toward them that are without, redeeming the time. There is a reward from Jesus to christians at the bema judgment seat for every lost sinner that got saved because of their witnessing. Jesus said at Revelation 22:12 And behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.

     Witnessing for Jesus and good works are not required for salvation. Just trusting by faith in the finished work that Jesus did at the cross of Calvary saves people. Ephesians 2:8 says For by grace are ye saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God. Not of works, lest any man should boast. After salvation, christians do good works to let Jesus shine to the world and make their faith for Jesus alive. You don't work to be saved; You work because you are saved. I would not work my soul to save for this my Lord hath done; But I would work like any slave for love of His dear Son.

Examples Of How To Witness For Jesus

1) When you go to the Florist, tell him you want the Rose of Sharon

Then tell him Jesus is the Rose of Sharon because Jesus said at

 Song of Solomon 2:1 I am the Rose of Sharon and the Lily of the Valleys 

2) When you go to the pharmacist, tell him Do you have the balm of Gilead

Then tell him Jesus is the balm of Gilead because 

Jeremiah 46:11 says Go up into Gilead (the Rock Jesus) and take balm (medicine)

In other words tell him I need medicine from Jesus the Rock (1 Corinthians 10:4)

3) When you get on a crowded elevator, tell everyone Are you ready for the big lift

Then tell them about the rapture where saints are caught up to the clouds

to be with Jesus forever in peace and joy

4) If anyone tells you It's a great day

Tell them there's a greater day coming soon and witness about Jesus

Jesus (not anything else) needs to witnessed to lost sinners

The main issue to witness to lost sinners is Jesus

     When you witness to lost sinners, keep your discussion about Jesus. Faith in Jesus is what is required for salvation. When the lost sinner wants to change the subject and talk about everything else (catholicism, the pope, baptism, good works, sacraments, and religion) except Jesus, keep witnessing about Jesus. 1 Corinthians 2:2 says For I determined not to know anything among you, save Jesus Christ and Him crucified. 

     Let the lost sinner know that salvation is simply stated at 1 John 5:12 that says he that hath the Son (Jesus) hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life. Then tell them Matthew 1:21 that says And she (Mary) shall bring forth a Son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS; for He shall save his people from their sins. And if a lost sinner tells you they are not saved, ask them if they would have a word of prayer with you to accept Jesus as their Lord and Saviour. Christians should all be witnessing Jesus everywhere to everyone on this earth. When was the last time you witnessed Jesus to anybody? Jesus told us at Mark 16:15 Go ye into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved, but he that believeth not shall be damned.

A Poem Proving That Witnessing The Name Jesus Will Save Souls

I know of a soul that is steeped in sin that no man can cure

But I know a name a name (Jesus) that can make that soul all pure

I know of a life that is lost to God bound down to the things of earth

But I know a name a name (Jesus) that can bring that soul to new birth

I know of lands that are sunk in shame of hearts that faint and tire

But I know a name a name (Jesus) one name that can set those lands on fire

It's sound is a brand; It's letters a flame, like glowing tongues of fire

I know that name (Jesus); That wonderful name of which I'll never tire

     And when people (Jehovah Witnesses or anyone) want to substitute the names Jehovah or Yahweh for the name Jesus, tell them that only at the name of Jesus (not Jehovah or Yahweh) will every knee bow and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father. Philippians 2:10 proclaims That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth. And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father. Remember it's faith in the name of Jesus that saves and lets us become sons of God stated at John 1:11 that says He came unto His own, and His own received him not. But as many as received Him (Jesus), to them gave He power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on His name (Jesus). 

Let Jesus Be The Shepherd In You Searching To Save Lost Sinner Sheep

Who Are Billions Of Lost Sinners All Over This Earth

     Allow Jesus in you to be the shepherd searching to save lost sinner sheep all over this earth. When anyone gets saved they will be like Jesus and according to Luke 19:10 will try to seek and to save that which was lost. Like Jesus they will seek to save that one lost sheep wandering in the wilderness of this fading world. Jesus told us at Luke 15:4 What man of you, having an hundred sheep, if he lose one of them, doth not leave the ninety and nine in the wilderness, and go after that which is lost, until He find it? And when He hath found it, He layeth it on His shoulders, rejoicing. And when He cometh home, He calleth together his friends and neighbours, saying unto them, Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost. I say unto you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just persons, which need no repentance.

Be Concerned About Lost Unsaved People And Tell Them About Jesus

Lost for want of a word; A word you might have spoken

Who knows what eyes may be dim or whose heart may be aching or broken

Go scatter beside all waters; Don't be discouraged when hope is deferred

Let never a soul by thy silence be lost for want of a word

A story about a pastor only concerned about money

Don't be like pastors who say a good prospect is someone with a lot of money

Remember a good prospect is someone who wants to hear about Jesus

     One day a man called the deacon of a church and said I want to talk to the big dog of the church. The deacon replied we don't call our pastor a big dog; Now what do you want to say. The man said well I've sold some land and I want to give $200000 as a gift to the church. The deacon replied Hold on the big pig just walked in and wants to talk to you.
