Title Influence and Bring Prospective Believers
content addition>
Let's influence and bring in prospective believers (Isaiah 43:1-7)
1. God calls us precious and honorable.
(1) God has designed and called a person to be a person of God (verse 1).
God refines us in many ways (verses 2-3). Because God cannot use a natural man. That is why they are formed into vessels that can be used as people of God (verse 4).
(2) The children of God are with God (verse 5). Even though we are at the ends of the earth, God calls us (verse 6). God calls us to His glory (verse 7).
2. What is a prospective believer?
(1) Prospective believers are those who are determined to receive salvation.
(2) While evangelizing the apostle Paul on his first missionary journey, he had the experience that “God certainly prepares the souls prepared for salvation among unbelievers” (Acts 13:14-50).
3. Oikos is a relational evangelism system.
(1) During the Oikos period, believers must embrace unbelievers as prospective believers.
Oikos evangelism is about making a good impact by showing us who we are and leading them to want to believe in Jesus.
(2) Evangelism must be handled well by analyzing the evangelism target and forming relationships.
4. The most important thing in Oikos evangelism is the strategy to influence prospective believers.
(1) Meeting with unbelievers (Jeremiah 3:15).
To influence the unbeliever, there must be a meeting. The most precious encounter in the world is meeting people to make an impact on life. Influence and bring in through encounters.
(2) The selection of prospective believers (Psalm 33:12).
You must meet unbelievers and select them as evangelists to secure prospective believers (John 15:16).
⑶ Focus on selected prospective believers (1 Corinthians 9:22-24).
Just as Paul focused on becoming in various ways to save people, we should always focus on the prospective believers by faith after they have been chosen. At that time, spiritual works will happen. Concentration is to influence prospective believers with the gospel through love and service. If you focus on prospective believers, you will surely change. We need to focus on a thousand prayers and a hundred encounters.
Now, we must all make the decision to evangelize Oikos.
Let's embrace, influence and bring "unbelievers" as prospective believers. The beginning of Oikos is to embrace prospective believers. “I can evangelize. Do it. Let's do it”, we must occupy the spiritual highlands and declare victory. With the belief that “nothing is impossible to those who believe”, let one person make a decision for three or more and declare victory.
