The Bible says in 2 Corinthians 4, 3, But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that
are lost, in whom the God of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not,
lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine on them.
For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord, and ourselves your servants for
Jesus' sake.
Winning the world to Christ starts with soul winning.
Now we all have a part in getting this job done.
I don't care if you're a man, a woman, a child, if you're older, I don't care what your situation
is, your life situation, you can have a part in this task.
If God wants the gospel to go to the whole world, if we want the gospel to go to the
whole world, if we do the work, if we follow the Bible, it can be done because all things
are possible to him that believe it.
For God who commanded the light to shine out of darkness has shined in our hearts to give
the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.
You shall receive power after that the Holy Ghost has come upon you and you shall be witnesses
unto me both in Jerusalem and in all Judea and in Samaria and unto the uttermost part
of the earth.
If God told us to teach all nations, if God told us to preach the gospel to every creature,
if God told us to preach the gospel to every creature, then it's done.
See, God tells us, Son, go work today in my vineyard.
He says, go open your mouth boldly to make known the mystery of the gospel.
Go preach the gospel to every creature.
But today we have so many churches where there's no soul winning, there's no real evangelism
going on.
And look, if God's looking, just think about it, if God's looking down from heaven and
he sees us just tearing it up, just every person in Jamaica, every person in Botswana,
every, you know, in all the places where it's safe, it's legal and it's receptive, don't
you think he's going to open other doors too?
Because Jesus said, I open and no man shutters.
I shut and no man opens.
But today we have so many churches where there's no soul winning, there's no real evangelism
going on, and they talk about, oh, we're bearing so much fruit, but their tree is just leaves.
And look, love works.
If you love somebody, you'll give them the gospel.
If you love the Lord, you'll keep his commandment and his commandments to go into all the world
and preach the gospel to every creature.
People are going to go to hell, friend.
People are going to be cast into the lake of fire.
And that breaks my heart.
It's heartbreaking.
It's sad.
It could be depressing to think too much about it.
The question is, will this actually happen?
Will it happen?
And the answer to that question is that it's up to us.
It can happen.
I believe that it will happen.
But the question of whether it will happen is up to us.
