As we study Christ's method in reaching souls, we are encouraged to follow in His footsteps and do the same.
In the book, Acts of The Apostles, it says "The Saviour went from house to house, healing the sick, comforting the mourners, soothing the afflicted, speaking peace to the disconsolate. He took the little children in His arms and blessed them, and spoke words of hope and comfort to the
weary mothers. With unfailing tenderness and gentleness He met every
form of human woe and affliction. Not for Himself but for others did He
labor. He was the servant of all. It was His meat and drink to bring hope and strength to all with whom He came in contact. And as men and women listened to the truths that fell from His lips, so different from the traditions and dogmas taught by the
rabbis, hope sprang up in their hearts. In His teaching there was an
earnestness that sent His words home with convicting power."
"God’s ministers are to learn Christ’s method of laboring, that
they may bring from the storehouse of His word that which will supply
the spiritual needs of those for whom they labor. Thus only can they
fulfill their trust. The same Spirit that dwelt in Christ as He imparted
the instruction He was constantly receiving, is to be the source of
their knowledge and the secret of their power in carrying on the
Saviour’s work in the world."
We are still looking for missionaries to help labor for souls. Please pray, donate or register with us today!
