See, you and I have an opportunity on this earth to be able to rescue people from hell.
The Bible says that if some have compassion, making a difference, and others save with
fear, pulling them out of the fire, and listen to me, I'm not trying to mock you, I'm not
trying to belittle you, I'm not trying to make you feel bad, but if we took this mic
around and we had you stand up and you gave us your reason why you can't go soul winning,
why you can't preach the gospel, and you gave us the best reason, you don't understand pastor,
I got to work, you don't understand pastor, I'm kind of shy, you don't understand pastor,
Saturdays when I do my gardening, you don't understand pastor, I'm just so busy, I'm just,
listen to me, there's coming a day when all those excuses will be stupid.
You'll sit there in heaven wishing you could go down to hell and rescue them, but yet you
and I have that opportunity right now, and week after week after week we make excuses,
well I'm just shy, well I'm just not prepared, well I'm just not ready, well I just can't,
well I got, I'm too busy, why would you preach a sermon like this, because maybe you can get
a vision to an unseen world after this life, and people die and go to hell, I'm busy too,
I'm tired too, I'm shy too, I've got reasons why I wouldn't want to go too, but you know what,
in heaven, in heaven we'll all wish we did more, in heaven we'll all wish, we'll all wish we had
a soul winning seminar we could watch and learn how to preach the gospel properly, we'll all wish
we could go out of church that had a Thursday night soul winning meeting, or a Saturday morning
soul winning meeting, or a Sunday afternoon soul winning meeting, or out of church with some staff
people in it that would go soul winning with you, did you know that we have staff people in this
church that go soul winning literally every day, and they'll go with you whenever you want,
but you're too busy, but you're too important, but you're too shy, or you're too fearful,
or you're too afraid, or whatever your little excuse is, and I'm not trying to irritate you
I'm just telling you, in heaven that excuse will be dumb, and in heaven all of us will wish that we
could be a soul winner, but by then it's too late.
