Lesson three is called we are all sinners. All right, so everything we've done up to this point has only
Prepared us for soul winning and got us to the place where the person said yes
We asked the question. Do you know for sure if you died today or you're on your way to heaven?
They said I'm not sure you said
The Bible says you can be a hundred percent sure you're on your way to heaven
Can I show you that and they said yes the scariest word for a new soul winner
At that moment you turn around, you know
The sores have been and if you stare around and tell us I've been that's fine. We're happy to do that
That's not a problem
You can start there getting people to say yes and letting somebody else take over
But eventually you want to when they say yes, you want to be able to start the gospel presentation
So let's talk about the gospel presentation lesson number three. We're all sinners number one
Why someone must admit that they are a sinner why someone must admit they are a sinner letter a the first thing we must do
To get someone to save is to get them to realize that they are
Condemned and need to be saved get them to realize that they are condemned and need to be saved letter B
We accomplished this by first showing them that they are a sinner and let her see
Because if someone is not a sinner then they will not need a Savior
Because if someone is not a sinner then they will not need a Savior number two. No one is perfect
Your keyword there is perfect. No one is perfect. The Bible says there is none righteous
So letter a it is easier
For someone to first agree that they are not perfect before they agree that they are a sinner in some ways
We try to ease people into this by
Starting with this idea that it's easier for someone to first agree that they're not perfect before they agree that they are a sinner
So we're gonna talk about how this conversation may go but before we get into that
Let me just explain something the method of gospel presentation that I'm going to explain to you is something that I've
Called or coined the read reveal and review method the read reveal and review method
I will teach you to take three steps with every verse in this plan of salvation
Right because that's what we're gonna present them the plan of salvation the presentation
So step number one is to read the passage
We want to read the passage to them this simply means you read or quote the verse to the individual
You're representing the gospel to step two is to reveal the truth
this means that you take a moment to explain what the verse means by expounding on the passage by defining words and by using
Illustrations and then step number three is to review the concept. So this means that before we move on
You make sure that they understood and that they agree with you before you move on to the next point
This will help you by the way
This is one of the things that will help you from getting to the end of the presentation and them saying to you
No
I don't believe in Jesus or I don't think I'm a sinner is if you
Read reveal review you read the passage you reveal the truth and then you review the concept with them and make sure they understand it
And agree with you before you move on to the next step. So little by the way there in the following lessons
I'm gonna give you scripts for how I explain verses
Use illustrations and help people understand the Bible
It's gonna take us most of the day to teach through this concept, but I just want you to understand something
I'm pretty much teaching you word for word how I present the gospel. Okay with that said let me say this
It's gonna take us like five hours for me to explain all this to you because we're gonna take times to answer your questions
I'm gonna teach you how to give the illustrations all that but I just want you to understand something
When you take all these scripts that I use and put them all together. This is like a 15-minute
Conversation though, it's taking us several hours to go through this because we're gonna take the time to explain to you what we're doing
Why we're doing it what we're saying. This is gonna be like a 15 or 20 minute
explanation of
The gospel and if you go sowing in with me, you'll notice that I give this gospel presentation word for word now
I don't necessarily recommend that you give a gospel presentation of word for word before I was a pastor
I'd change up my gospel presentation just for fun just to explain things differently or whatever
but what I learned as a pastor is that when I got up and taught people how to give the gospel and then I did
It differently with my soul winning partners would be confused. Like well, that's not what you said at the stories
I'm not so as a pastor, I've just decided every time I'm solving with a church member
This is all I give the gospel just for sake of consistency just so that everyone can see the exact same thing
I'm not saying you need to do that. I'm just explaining that to you
So if you're looking for ways to explain things this has worked for years and years and years
it's worked and you could just memorize these scripts and
Explain them and they would work obviously, I don't think we should be robots just memorizing scripts
But I'm saying especially when you're new it's good to know what you're gonna say. So number one read the passage
I like to start in Romans 3 10 as it is written. There is none righteous
No, not one and then I will say something like this. Do you see how the first part of this word righteous?
It says right someone who's righteous
according to the Bible is someone who
Always does right or someone who never does wrong a modern word that we might use would be perfect
Here when the Bible says there's none righteous
No
Not one what that means is that no one is perfect and then I look at the individual and I say would you agree?
That no one's perfect and I might say something like this. You didn't think you were perfect. Did you they're gonna say no
Of course not. No one's perfect. So what did I do? I just read a verse I
Explained it I revealed the truth and then I reviewed the concept. All right, so they say yes, I'd like to hear the gospel
Okay. Well, let me show you this first here in Romans 3 10. It says as it is written. There is none righteous
No, not one you see this word righteous here
See how the first part of the word righteous I says right according the Bible someone who's righteous is someone who always does right or?
Someone who does not do wrong a modern word that you and I would probably use would be perfect and here it says there's none
Righteous or we could say there's none perfect. No, not one. Would you agree with that?
You didn't think you were perfect. Did you that's literally read reveal and reveal and if they say no, of course
No one's perfect. I'm not perfect
Then we move on. All right that mean what that take one minute right now. Obviously, that's easy. There's other stuff
That's a little more complicated. So you're there on page number 14 page number 14 number three. We are all sinners
We are all sinners for all have sinned
Letter a we do not want people to feel as though we are
Specifically pointing them out as sinners or attacking them
So number one therefore we start out by pointing out that no one is perfect
And then number two when you talk about sin, make sure you include yourself. We are all sinners
All right, so how this conversation may go I just explained
Romans 3 10 they said I can give the gospel I said great
Let me show you this verse here Romans 3 10 as it is written. There is none righteous
No, not one you see this word righteous here, that's me revealing the truth
You see how the first part of the word is says right someone who's righteous someone who always does right or someone who never does
Wrong a modern word we might use would be perfect and here it says there's none righteous
No, not one what the Bible is saying is no one's perfect. Would you agree with that? You didn't think you were perfect, right?
They're gonna say most people are gonna say every once in a while you get somebody says, oh, I'm perfect
You know, and that's that's a different story. You don't even move on from there, but most we're gonna say oh, yeah
I'm not perfect. No one's perfect. And then what I like to say is
You didn't think you were perfect. Did you know? Of course not. I'm not perfect
Well, let me show you this verse Romans 3 23 because in this verse God takes it a step further
Notice what he says he says for all have sinned and come short of the glory of God
Notice how I read the verse I read in such a way to emphasize what I'm trying to get them to see for all have
Sinned and come short of the glory of God and then I might explain it in this way in this verse
God takes it a step further the Bible defines sin as the transgression of the law when we transgressed or we break God's law
We've sinned
So for example, if I tell a lie
That's a sin if I steal something that's a sin here the Bible says for all have sinned
That means that everyone's a sinner. I'm a sinner. You're a sinner. We've all sinned before would you agree with that?
That we're all sinners that's literally how I explain it. I noticed how I said that the Bible says that we're all sinners
You're a sinner
Everyone you're a household. That's not what I said. The Bible says we're all sinners. I'm a sinner. You're a sinner
Would you agree with that that we're all sinners? So include yourself because here's the thing you say well, I'm safe
Yeah, but you're still a sinner. It's just good tactics and being polite. So we read the verse we reveal the truth
We review the concept. You didn't think you were perfect. Did you know? Of course not. I'm not perfect. No one's perfect
Exactly. Well notice here in Romans 3 23 God takes it a step further
He says for all have sinned and comes short of the glory of God
The Bible defines sin as the transgression of the law when we break God's law. That's a sin
So for example, if I tell a lie, that's a sin if I steal something
That's a sin because God said we shouldn't lie and we shouldn't steal here
It says for all have sinned that means we're all sinners. That means I'm a sinner. That means you're a sinner
Would you agree that you're a sinner?
At that point they're gonna say oh, yeah, I've sinned before and we move on so I hope that makes sense
The method we're using read reveal review read reveal review
So turn to page number 15 there and let's talk about how the questions should be used throughout the conversation
As you present the gospel to an individual
you could explain everything to them and simply have them stand there and listen to you for 15 to 20 minutes or
You could involve them in the conversation and keep them engaged and hold their attention by asking them appropriate and well-placed
Questions this allows them to take part of the conversation now. You could do it either way
I just choose to ask questions and involve them in the conversation for a couple of reasons number one. It's more fun for them
Instead of just listening to your monologue
Number two it's more fun for me to
Engage them and to ask them questions and and to have an interaction and then number three
That's what you see Jesus do in the Bible when you see Jesus engage with sinners and present the gospel
It's not this monologue. It's a conversation back and forth talking you think about the woman at the well
It's a conversation back and forth explaining the gospel
So let's talk about how questions should be used letter eight
The questions should be used for the purpose of bringing attention to keywords in the verse
So we're using questions
To try to draw them to a conclusion for example
Bring attention to the keywords by asking things like are you familiar with the word letter B?
The questions should be used to see if the person is agreeing with you or not use questions like do you agree with that?
Do you see what I'm saying? Do you believe what I'm saying if you're asking somebody?
Do you believe what I'm showing you and they're nodding their head? They're agreeing those are all good signs. They're not
Then you shouldn't be moving on without making sure that they are
Understanding that's why we read reveal review read reveal review letter C
The questions should be worded so that people do not feel as if they are being tested or judged
Honestly, one of the biggest things we deal with in the sewing seminar is teaching people just basic people skills
For example, I'm not gonna ask him. Do you know what this word means? You say why would you not ask me?
Do you know what this word means?
Because that's belittling and rude for some reason when you change the word to say are you familiar with
Are you familiar with the word righteous? Oh, yeah, I'm familiar with the word. Do you know what the word righteous means?
Of course, I know what the word right you think I'm an idiot. I've seen that happen
Where people feel like you're asking them all these questions
So just be careful about how you word questions and be careful about how you word statements
And that's just an example. Are you familiar with just carries a different?
Punch then do you know what this word means?
so the question should be worded so that people do not feel as if they are being tested or
Judged, let me just go ahead and we're gonna do something that if you haven't done this
Then this is definitely something that we want to help you with and honestly
I'm gonna teach you a lot in the seminar, but what we're gonna do right now, especially if you're a brand new soul
Maybe you're here and you're kind of refreshing. That's great
But if you're a brand new soul winner, this is worth the cost of you coming here
Although it didn't cost you anything to come here and it is this I want to help you map this out in your Bible
All right. So what we're gonna do is we're going to mark and highlight
Romans 3 10 and Romans 3 23. Okay, so go ahead and grab your Bible
I want to help you map this out these references in your Bible because one thing that happens with new soul winners
Those are like I don't know where to go next. Okay, so we're gonna help you with that
If you take your Bibles and go to Romans 3 10, here's what I'd like you to do
I'd like you to write a number one
Right in front of or right next to Romans 3 10. So what does that mean that is?
Indicating that this is the first verse you will be going to in your presentation
Now if you can do it in a subtle way, that would be great
So write a number one next to or in front of Romans 3 10
This is indicating that this is the first verse you will go to in your presentation and then on the other side
So Romans 3 10 on on one side write the number one then on the other side in your margin just neatly write
Romans 3 23 or you can write Rome our om 3 23
You say what is that for that is for you to know that this is the next verse you're gonna go to
Once you're done with this verse
So the first verse you're gonna go to Romans 3 10 and then it's telling you the next verse you're gonna go to is Romans
3 23 then next to Romans 3 23 or on one side of Romans 3 23 write a number two
Romans 3 23 this is indicating that this is a second verse that you'll be going to in your
presentation and then on the other side or somewhere near there write Romans
623 a
Romans 6 23 8 now the reason I like to say a is because in the gospel presentation
I'm gonna teach you we're actually gonna go to Romans 6 23 two different times to make two different points
So Romans 6 23 a is indicating that you're going there for the first time to make the first point
so that is the end of
lesson number three
