Study 3-Why should we
Witness to the Unsaved?
Main Text: Luke 16:19-31
Memory Verse: 1 Cor. 9:16
Introduction:
Witnessing
is a compelling command to every believer. It is not the will of God that
anyone should perish: He wants all men to be saved. The Lord Jesus Christ was
not only involved in evangelism but also sent out His disciples to do so. They were
to preach to every human everywhere. Paul the apostle said, “For though I
preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory of: for necessity is laid upon me;
yea, woe is unto me, if I preach not the gospel!” (1 Corinthians 9:16). To him, witnessing is
more important than any other thing in the world.

of eternal judgment of the lost among others. There are many people ready to be saved and
that should compel us to preach to them before they perish.
