The Privilege To Share

The Privilege To Share

1 Corinthians 3:5–9 5 After all, who is Apollos? Who is Paul? We are only God’s servants through whom you believed the Good News. Each of us did the work the Lord gave us. 6 I planted the seed in your hearts, and Apollos watered it, but it was God who made it grow. 7 It’s not important who does the planting, or who does the watering. What’s important is that God makes the seed grow. 8 The one who plants and the one who waters work together with the same purpose. And both will be rewarded for their own hard work. 9 For we are both God’s workers. And you are God’s field. You are God’s building.

Because God uses people to evangelize the lost, we must actively share the gospel.

1. Evangelism is done through individuals (5)

2. Evangelism is done corporately (6a-b)

3. Evangelism is effective because of God (6c-7)

4. Evangelism is intentional and synergistic (8a)

5. Evangelism is rewarded by God (8b-9)

Call To Action

1. Identify lost people in your circle that need to be saved

2. Create opportunities to share the gospel with them

3. Share the gospel intentionally with them and everyone else

Big Takeaway - God has saved us to be His messengers and share the gospel!

Who will you share the gospel with this week?
