PEOPLE HELPING PEOPLE HEAR THE GOOD NEWS

FOR THE FIRST TIME

GOD HAS PROVIDED SALVATION FOR EVERY MAN, WOMAN, BOY AND

GIRL IN THE WORLD …"Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved." Rom 10:13 (NIV)

The Good News Is …

They have no Christian neighbors, friends or co-workers who can witness to themThere are no Christian programs on the radio or TV There are no Bibles or other Christian literatureThere is no neighborhood Church

THERE IS NO ONE TO TELL THEM

The Bad News Is …ONE THIRD OF THE WORLD HAS BEEN KEPT FROM THE

GOSPEL

BUT GOD HAS A PLAN…

But how shall they

ask him to save them

unless they believe in him?

And how can they believe

in him if they have never

heard about him? And how

can they hear about him

unless someone tells them?

And how will anyone go

and tell them unless

someone sends him?

Rom 10:14-15

THERE ARE FOUR AGENTS IN GOD’S PLAN OF REDEMPTION

God – Who provides salvationThe Sinner – Who calls out for salvationThe Goer – Who takes the message of salvation to the unreachedThe Sender – Who provides the support, financial and prayer, to send the goer with the message of salvation

GOD PROVIDES SALVATION

God Wants Everyone To Be Saved

God Has Even Delayed The Coming Of Christ So That Others Might Be Saved

Joh 3:16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only-begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.

2Pe 3:9 The Lord is not slow concerning His promise, as some count slowness, but is long-suffering toward us, not purposing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

THE SINNER MUST CALL ON THE LORD

God Hears the Cry of Every Penitent Heart

God’s Answer Will Be Immediate

Surely the arm of the LORD is not too short to save, nor his ear too dull to hear. Isa 59:1

…How gracious he will be when you cry for help! As soon as he hears, he will answer you. Isa 30:19

For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord

shall be saved. Rom. 10:13

GOERS MUST GO

“But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will

be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of

the earth.” Acts 1:8

Every Christian is called to be a

witness but some are called to go

The only plan that God has for reaching the lost is to send people to win people

Those Who Go Are Called Missionaries Or “Sent Ones”

BUT GOERS CAN’T GO UNLESS SOMEONE

AGREES TO SEND THEM

Missionaries are not asking for favors or charity but for PARTNERS to invest in the lost of this worldThey are not seeking your left-overs but the very best that you have to invest in eternity

SENDERS MUST SEND

Senders need goers as much as goers need senders – It takes both to obey the Great CommissionSenders will share the rewards with the goers

"The one receiving a prophet in [the] name of a prophet will take hold of

a prophet's reward, and the one receiving a righteous [person] in the

name of a righteous [person] will take hold of a righteous [person's] reward. Mat

You Can Have The

Tools

You Can Have The Volunteers

Both Are Ineffective If There Is No Support To

Hold Them

IF YOU ARE NOT CALLED

TO BE A GOER, THEN YOU MUST BE A

SENDERThis is not multiple choice.You can’t mark “none of the above”.

Rom 12:1 I beseech you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God to

present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, pleasing to God, which is your

reasonable service.

1Jo 5:3 For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments, and His commandments are not burdensome.

NO ONE IS EXEMPT!To refuse to be either a goer or a sender means your life

will be fruitlessJoh 15:2 Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit, He takes away. And every one that bears fruit, He prunes it so that it may bring forth more fruit.

How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? Rom 10:14

And how shall they preach unless they are sent? Rom 10:15

Four Hows?And how shall they believe in Him of

whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without

preaching?

The Answer: They can’t unless there

are senders and goers
