Deeper Christian Life Ministry The Netherlands INTRODUCTION • Soul-winning is a metaphor for evangelism or witnessing. Soul-winning is the practice of leading lost sinners to the Lord Jesus Christ for the salvation of their soul. • Every believer is expected to be an active soul-winner, an effective witness for the Lord Jesus Christ (Acts 1: 8). • The Lord has promised to give us all that we need to win souls. We need love, zeal, compassion, faith, knowledge, wisdom and power; God gives these attributes abundantly to all who ask in faith (Ephesians 3: 16 -20; Luke 11: 510; James 1: 5). …earnestly contend for the FAITH which was once delivered unto the SAINTS (Jude 3)
Deeper Christian Life Ministry The Netherlands ESSENCE OF SOUL-WINNING Soul-winning is central to the Great Commission (Mat. 28: 19 -20): • The first thing is to warn the sinner of sin and judgment. After the Holy Spirit convicts of sin and its danger and he desires deliverance from sin and Satan’s power, the soul-winner is presents Jesus to him as Saviour. If he believes and calls upon the name of the Lord, he becomes born again (Rom. 10: 13). • The second part is to teach the convert to observe all things commanded by the Lord. The soul-winner’s work is not complete until the fruit of evangelism is conserved (John 15: 16). The new convert requires parental guidance and special feeding on the ‘milk of the word of God’; he needs the personal attention of the soul-winner to have his questions answered. …earnestly contend for the FAITH which was once delivered unto the SAINTS (Jude 3)
Deeper Christian Life Ministry The Netherlands THE LIFE OF THE SOUL-WINNER Fruitfulness in soul-winning depends on the life of the soul-winner: • Assurance of salvation (II Tim. 2: 6): Personal experience is indispensable. • Vibrant life (John 15: 3 -5): To be fruitful, the soul-winner must have daily victory over sin, the flesh and world; he needs Christ-like compassion, an effective prayer life, working knowledge of the scriptures, strong conviction about God, the Bible and the necessity of salvation and faith in the benefit of the great and wonderful promises of God. • Vision & focus (Pro. 11: 30: Eccl. 11: 4 -6): the soul-winner must be prepared, patient, faithful, committed to the purpose and adaptable to the situation of the sinner. …earnestly contend for the FAITH which was once delivered unto the SAINTS (Jude 3)
