STEWARDS OF THE
GOSPEL – Why Should We Evangelize?
Main Text: Matt 28:18-20
Memory Verse: 1 Cor. 4:1 “This is how one should
regard us, as servants of Christ and stewards of the mysteries of God”
Introduction
From today’s reading, it is obvious that the Lord
Jesus deliberately committed the preaching of the gospel and the discipling of
nations to his followers. Therefore every believer by the nature of his calling
is a steward of the gospel. Every other Christian activity should be driven by
this duty to reach every person with the gospel of Jesus. Being a steward of
the gospel denotes, experiencing the new birth for oneself, living the Christ like
life, understanding the message of Jesus Christ and seeking at every
opportunity to spread that message.
Discussion questions
1. What is the gospel?
2. From today’s text, what did the Lord charge
his disciples to do? Matt 28:19
3. Who are stewards of the mysteries of God? 1
Cor 4:1 Discuss
4. What does it mean to walk worthy of the
gospel? Eph. 4:25-32
5. How many souls have you won for Christ this
year?
Conclusion
Being a steward of the Gospel means that God has
made us an exhibition of what the Gospel can do in transforming lives. As a
result, we should live the gospel in our homes, workplaces, in our marriages
and everywhere we go. The fragrance of the gospel should be felt around us to
draw souls into the Kingdom.
