3) Jesus tells us to have mercy
“Who will be a neighbor to the man who was struck by a robber?” He said, “The one who showed mercy.” Jesus said to him, “Go and do likewise.”
3. Evangelism of love
1) Let us have pity on sinners.
Mark 6:34 "When Jesus came out and saw a great crowd, he had compassion on them because they were like sheep without a shepherd, and he taught them many things.
Just as Jesus had compassion on the people of Israel, the sick, the demon-possessed, the lepers, the prostitutes, and the publicans who did not believe in God, so let us also have compassion on us and teach and preach the word.
2) Let's love those who suffer.
Jesus said to go and do like the Samaritan who showed mercy to the man who was struck by a robber, so let us love all kinds of people who are suffering. We need to embrace all kinds of suffering people with love and spread the word so that they can come out of the place of suffering.
3) Let's evangelize so that those who suffer can receive eternal life.
Jesus laid down his life to save sinners and suffering people so that they might have eternal life. Therefore, we must also lead us so that we can gain eternal life by evangelizing with the grace and faith of eternal life that we received even when we lay down our lives. That is, as I go on the path of eternal life, I have to lead my neighbors on the path of eternal life.
Conclusion) Who is the neighbor who showed love to the man who was hit by a robber? Who will care for, bind up, and save those who are suffering as if we were met by a robber around us? We, who have been saved through love from Jesus and not others, must become neighbors to those who have been hit by robbers, and we must take care of, bind up, and save those who are in pain. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . “Jesus said to him, “Go and do likewise.” According to the words of Jesus, we must evangelize with love and lead them to the church and to Jesus. To do this, even if there are difficulties, even if there is a waste of material, or even if my life is sacrificed, I must bear the evangelism of love. Even if we suffer in the world, we must evangelize those who have received the grace of eternal life so that they can receive the grace of eternal life from their neighbors.
This is to spread the grace of eternal life with love because I have been saved by believing in God, leading many people from the seat of sin and death and suffering, and evangelizing them to receive eternal life. In the name of the Lord, I pray that you will become saints who will receive eternal life through evangelism of love, and those who receive evangelism will also receive eternal life.
