Everybody, it's Alexander Larsen with Bible Truth 23, and I want to start a new series on my Instagram page here
just going through some soul-winning tips and tricks and
You know before I get into this just as a disclaimer, I am by no means an expert on soul-winning
I've only been doing it for a few years. So I'm not saying like I know everything or anything like that
In fact, some of these things that I might go over in this series
I've only learned in the last few months just from going with more experienced people or just you know
Putting in the practice things like that
So the purpose of this is to just give some basic tips and tricks things that I've seen like beginners
Make mistakes on things like that
So first of all, I want to talk about being prepared when we go out soul-winning and this is very important
Because when you go out soul-winning, we don't want to forget the things that we need. Of course, we need our Bible. Okay?
This is of course important especially for new soul owners who might not have the verses memorized that they need to be able to preach
the gospel
Having your actual physical Bible with you is of course helpful
And even if you have all the verses memorized, even if you know what you're doing
Even if you can preach the gospel without any Bible in your hand
it's good to have it so you can actually show them the verses as well because
I've run into situations where there's people who you preach to and you show them
Verse you might quote it and they don't believe that that's in the Bible
But the thing is if you actually have a physical Bible, you can show them what it says you can show them
Hey, look the Bible clearly says right here, you know in Romans
Four or five but to him that worketh not you know and you can kind of follow along with them in the Bible
So it's good to have an actual physical Bible with you
Or I've seen some people use their phone or like use a tablet with a Bible app on it that works as well
That's another thing that you could use as long as you have the verses that you can actually show to them
Another thing that you need to be prepared in is if you're not, you know
If you don't have the verses memorized you want to maybe tab up your Bible or have like a map to the verses
Like if you start in Romans 3 which most people do
Explaining the fact that we're all sinners whether we you start with verse 10 or start with verse 23 a good tip is to put
like in the margins maybe
Just right next to the verse the verses you would turn to next again
If you're new at soul-winning if that's something that you might not know all the verses or have that all in your head already
And then of course, you know, you want to practice memorizing these verses and of course it takes time
But it's always good to have these things memorized so you know where to turn to and you're not fumbling through on your pages
So you definitely have to be prepared when you're going out soul-winning because you want to you want it to flow as well as possible
you know, you don't want to just keep stumbling over things and making mistakes and
Fumbling and you also, you know want to don't want to get to the door and not have something that could help them
also, usually I mean depending on what church you go to
If you go to like a new IFB church like faithful word Baptist Church, which is where I attend
There's probably gonna be some kind of card or something like that that you can hand out
Definitely try to hand out like an invitation to your church or something like that
So that way if you knock on a door and nobody answers you can leave something in the door
And so that way you can at least you know, hopefully bring them to church and maybe they could get saved there now
That doesn't always happen, you know, probably
99% of doors you knock the people won't end up coming but you never know
So some of the doors you you knock where people don't answer or maybe they're busy
They don't have time to talk
You could hand them like a card or you can hand them an invitation or a tract or something like that
So that they could read that maybe have a seed planted or go to church
And and hear the gospel there if they don't have time or if they're not home
So you want to be prepared in all of these things?
And so this is just you know, a series of just going through a few quick things. I have
You know, bring me like 15 tips or so that I'm gonna go through. I don't have like any particular
My schedule for uploading these I'm just gonna just do these when I feel like it
I guess we're gonna have the time. So thank you buddy for watching
God bless you and goodbye
