Many Christians can give a thousand reasons why they are following Jesus Christ and not another, but cannot give reasons why they should be winning (souls) for Him. Jesus Christ expects all who decide to follow Him (Christian) to win (souls) for Him also. “And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations...” (Matt. 28:18, 19) Any Christian who is not a Soul-Winner is not a Christian enough. A Soul-Winner is a vessel through which Christ draws all men unto Himself. You need to be that vessel. Here are thirteen reasons why you should avail yourself for Christ to draw all men to Himself:
- To impact and transform lives positively for Christ (2 Cor. 5:17)
- Soul winning keeps our names in the book of life (Lk. 10:20)
- To increase the testimony of Jesus Christ (especially to the unbelieving world) (Lk.4:34)
- To teach humanity to worship in Spirit and in Truth (Jn. 4:22-24)
- To bind the broken in heart (Isa. 61:1; Lk. 4:18)
- Soul winning gives the believer the ability to proclaim liberty to the captives (Isa. 61:1; Lk. 4:18)
- The message of the gospel opens prisons doors to them that are bound (Isa. 61:1; Lk. 4:18)
- Soul winning gives us the opportunity to put people in expectation of the second coming of Jesus (Isa. 61:2; Lk. 4:17)
- To cautions sinners of the judgment of God
- Soul winners are made wise by God (Pro. 11:30)
- To restore joy and give hope to the hopeless (Jn. 4)
- To receive great grace from God (Acts 4:33)
- Soul winners are representatives or ambassadors of God (2 Cor. 5:20)
