The Greatest thing to happen Period

The Greatest Thing to Happen to you and others

The most important
What is the most important, greatest thing to ever happen to you? Answer, when you got saved, by far. What then is the most important thing you can do for anyone else. Lead them to Christ and they get saved for eternity. NOTHING COMPARES

How you got saved
I have asked this in scores of churches. How many were saved seeing a sign "Jesus Saves?" No one. How many were saved seeing the poster at foot ball games "John 3:16." No one? How many were saved listening to a sermon on radio? Maybe one of two. How many were saved through a TV preacher or program. Maybe one. How many were saved through a person witnessing to you or a person preaching. Some person comes to your mind. Usually 95% to 99% raise their hands. That's it. God uses people.

Witnessing is not the great debate Please understand and believe this. You don't talk people into being saved. God must convict and convert them. We are just messenger boys of GOOD NEWS. "The Lord's bond-servant must not be quarrelsome, but be kind to all, able to teach, patient when wronged," argues 2 Tim. 2:24. That takes the monkey off our backs.

Our job.
Our job is not to "win the world" to Christ but to "PREACH THE GOSPEL to every creature" Mk. 16:15. We are not to share "our faith." We are to share the gospel, the good news. This is crucial to become a soul-winner. People get the idea I have to share my faith and defend all the doctrines of our church or the Bible. No, a thousand time no. We are to share the gospel, "for the gospel is the power of God unto salvation." What a difference that makes when you understand it. It is so simple and so easy.

My passion
BElieve me, my deepest passion is for you to get the thrill, the joy, the peace, the satisfaction of seeing people "born of God' right before your eyes. Please read each email and get in on it. DON'T LET THE DEVIL TALK YOU OUT OF IT.

Father, You are so wonderful to let us have a part in this eternal privilege. You said, we shall catch men. Dear God please each one reading this get in on it. In Jesus name

Oh, I love YOU and long for you to be so mightily used of God, ABC sumner

Celeste "Angel" Magee Zimmerman Wemp Obituary

Celeste Magee Zimmerman Wemp, Angel, age 85, went to be with Lord on
July 9, 2010. Celeste was home surrounded by her family and loved ones
when she peacefully entered the arms of her Lord and Savior, Jesus
Christ.

Celeste was born on July 13, 1924 to Benton Winchester Magee and Jenny
Foster and after their deaths, was raised by her Aunt and Uncle Lucia
and Roy Zimmerman in Dallas, Texas. Celeste attended Woodrow Wilson High
School in Dallas and graduated from Moody Bible Institute in Chicago,
Illinois in 1945 and later, Liberty University in Lynchburg, Virginia in
1975 with a degree in Christian Ministries.

Celeste was actively involved in Young Life ministries as a young adult.
Celeste met her husband, Dr. C. Sumner Wemp, at Ross Avenue Baptist
Church in 1946, while he was a student at Dallas Theological Seminary.
Sumner and Celeste were married the following year in Dallas with plans
for missionary service in Brazil. The Lord had other plans and they
entered the pastorate with a heart for missions. They served in churches
in Alabama, Florida and Illinois before moving to Lynchburg, Virginia to
join Liberty University. Celeste joined the faculty there and taught and
mentored women for Christian service for many years. Celeste was known
as a prominent Bible teacher. She pioneered the concept of Christians
Women's Retreats through which she ministered to over 1,000 women
several times each year for over 20 years. Celeste was asked by the
committee bringing in Ann Graham Lotts to organize a special citywide
women's crusade for the city of Atlanta.

She is survived by her husband, Sumner, sons Cliff Wemp, Chuck Wemp and
his wife Donna, Daughters Elaine Grill, Carolyn Wemp, Jean Medley, Janet
Herlyck and her husband Jack, grandchildren, Christopher, Lindsey and
Evan Wemp and sister, Leona Wooten Day.

Become Fishers of Men

I should have kept it. Somewhere I read that only 2% of Christians actually witness. Do you?

"Behold, the sower went out to sow...But while his men were sleeping, his enemy came and sowed [a]tares among the wheat, and went away" Mat. 13:3, 25.

We are in deep trouble
Our world, our nation, your nation is in deep trouble. While we Christians have "slept," the enemy has "filled the earth with violence" Gen. 6:10. God is being systematically shoved out. Christians are being vilified, persecuted and martyred. The good are called evil and the evil is called good Isa. 5:20.

The answer
What shall we do about it? What is the cure? What is the answer?

The great commission: believe it or not? "Preach the gospel to every creature" Mark 16:15. This handful of "unlearned and ignorant men" ...who "had been with Jesus" Acts 4:13, believed and practiced it and "filled Jerusalem" with their doctrine Acts 5:28 and then it was said of them, "They have turned the world upside down" Acts 17:6.

We can do it again
They say there are 50 million born again Christians in America. If each one just won one in one year, we would have 100 million Christians. The next year each one just won one we would have 200 million more Christians and that would dramatically change our country and every other country if in their country they would do the same.

Dear people, we can do it again. We MUST! To God be the glory, I am a soul-winner. I know how. The Lord willing, I am going to teach each of you how to effectively and joyously lead people to Christ. No fears. Simple methods. PLEASE READ THE EMAILS OVER THE NEXT FEW WEEKS! Get your friends and relatives in on this. It will be the most important series I have ever done.

You, your friends, heaven will be filled with joy Luke 15. You will have "meat to eat" above anything you ever had. John 4:32. You will be wise? Prov 11:30. You will be amazed. Lk 5:26. You will shine as the brightness of the stars Dan 12:3. And on and on we could go.

Father, make us "fishers of men" like You said we would be. Use each one of these 8000 dear people to the fullest and fill them with joy unspeakable, to Your glory.

I LOVE YOU and long for you to fulfill His purpose and give you the greatest meaning for living you ever had. All because of Calvary, Sumner
