Witness with authority to be effective

To be an effective soul winner speak with authority

"For He, Jesus, taught them as one having authority and not as the scribes" Matt 2:29.
You must speak with authority, not arrogance. Jesus did! I have seen too many Christians try to witness with no joy, no life and no authority. You would not buy a product from someone who is not sold on his product and it who shows in the way he speaks. So it is with witnessing the gospel.

We really have the most important thing to tell a person.
We have the greatest news, the most wonderful salvation, the greatest person to present to a lost and confused world. Witness with that burning in your heart. That ought to come naturally as we tell people how God loves them and His son, the Lord Jesus suffered and died for our sins, paid our debt in full, rose again and was seen by hundreds. Seriously, I get goose bumps just writing this.

Please don't be mealy mouthed about God and the gospel. With the joy of the Lord in your heart, a smile of God on you face, and the authority of God in your voice, tell this gospel, this good news, in glowing terms. I love you,.ABC sumner

Pray to be filled with the Holy Spirit to win souls

Pray to be filled with the Holy Spirit to win souls

What a promise to you!
"He that believeth on me as the Scripture hath said, out of his belly
shall flow RIVERS OF LIVING WATER, this spake He of the Spirit" Jn
7:38. 39. Not a dripping faucet, not a trickling stream but RIVERS of
the Holy Spirit. You can see it too. You must. You will be a
successful soul winner.

It is the will of God
"Wherefore be ye not unwise but UNDERSTANDING what the will of the
Lord is...be filled with the Spirit" Eph 5:17, 18. It is the will of
God for YOU to be filled, controlled by the Holy Spirit. HOW?

Keep on asking
Please believe and get hold of this precious promise. "And this is the
confidence we have in him that, if we ask anything according to his
will, he heareth us and if we know that he hear us, whatsoever we ask,
we know (by faith, cause He said so) that we have the petitions that
we desired of him" 1 John 5:14, 15. Right this minute I know that I am
filled with the Holy Spirit for I asked this of Him according to His
will when I started writing this article. Make sense?. Pray this every
time you go witnessing or start to witness and TRUST GOD, BELIEVE GOD
for the Holy Spirit to flow through you. You will see a lot more souls
saved when you do this and you will know God did it and not try to
take any credit.

Be ye fishers of men -- you catch them, He'll clean them.

Exercise daily, walk by faith, it is a lot more fun and fruitful. ABC Sumner

Your Ticket to Heaven

May I offer you a ticket to heaven? You don’t have to pay for it, and that’s a good thing, because you could never afford to buy it! It’s free, but only because someone has already paid the ultimate price for it.

God loves you and not only wants you to have a fulfilling life on earth, he also wants you to live with Him in heaven forever. He’s the one who offers you a paid-in-full ticket. No one wants to go to hell where there will be no joy and no pleasures whatsoever, and God doesn’t want anyone to go there either. The Bible says that God is “not wishing that any should perish” (2 Peter 3:9).

But there is a problem with getting that free ticket. We have all done wrong—we have all sinned, haven’t we? God’s Word says “If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves” (1 John 1:8). Sin pollutes—it makes us unclean, unfit for God’s presence in that wonderful, perfect place called heaven. Sin penalizes—it separates us from a sinless God, “For the wages of sin is death” (Romans 6:23).

In short, our sinfulness blocks the delivery of the ticket that we need to get into heaven!

Who paid for it?

Wait! There’s good news! Jesus Christ, the Son of God, came to earth to be born and to live His life without sin. He “suffered once for [our] sins, the righteous [one] for the unrighteous [all of us!], that He might bring us to God” (1 Peter 3:18). When God “laid on him the iniquity [sins] of us all” (Isaiah 53:6), Jesus cried out, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?” (Mark 15:34).

The answer is simple and profound: Jesus was separated from God because he took your place and mine on the cross, and by dying he paid in full the “wages” our sins had earned.

Then he rose from the dead, was seen by hundreds of people, and is alive today so you can know him and receive the gift of eternal life—your ticket to heaven. That’s right! The Bible says, “to all who did receive him [Jesus], who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God” (John 1:12).

That is fantastic! You can become a “new” person—born of God—to start a brand-new life that pleases God. And, of course, all God’s children have a ticket to heaven!

Do you want it?

It is no accident you were given this offer of a ticket to heaven. God has made sure you can receive it. The whole issue is, did Jesus pay for all your sins or didn’t he? God said he did. Trust God that it is so. “Whoever believes in the Son [of God] has eternal life” (John 3:36).

Just as a man says, “Yes, I will take this woman to be my wife,” God wants you to tell him, “Yes, I will take Jesus to be my Savior. I believe that he is the only way to heaven.” The Bible says, “Whoever has the Son [Jesus] has life” (1 John 5:12).

If you believe that God’s way to heaven is the only way, you can “claim your ticket” by telling God in words like these:

Dear God, I have sinned. I know I have offended you in many ways. I am so sorry. I believe that Jesus suffered and died for my sins, paid my debt in full, and rose again. Jesus, I believe in you and thank you for what you’ve done for me. Please save me from the penalty of my sins, and give me a new birth and the power to live for you. Thank you for this offer to spend eternity with you!

Remember what John 3:36 says: “Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life.” Do you now believe in Jesus as your Savior, your only “ticket to heaven”? Do you have everlasting life, like God said?

It is the easiest tract to give out I have ever used. People often say, "I need that " or "I want that" and take it gladly.
