Why should i evangelise

Consider how richly God has loved us 1 John , If we are to love our neighbor as ourselves Matt. Love for God. Our ultimate motivation in evangelism must be to see God glorified, and God is glorified when the truth about him is known and made known. Thus our desire should be to glorify God by proclaiming the truth about him as often as we can. This motivation will sustain us when our love for others may run dry. If we are to faithfully evangelize despite rejection, opposition, and even persecution, our deepest motivation must be to glorify God.

And how can they hear without someone preaching to them? Romans This is a great and essential passage for all those who do evangelism. If you get anything from this book, please realize we are ALL called to do it, yet so few do because so few respond! Paul, with all of his passion, love, and zeal bats a near zero in witnessing to the Jews.

He defends himself that he is just preaching what Moses taught which is now fulfilled in Christ. Then Paul gives them the Gospel, that to know who Jesus is and confess Him as your Lord is the only way of salvation now, the only way to be right with God.

So, when you are discouraged and find so few people responding to your efforts to witness, remember; even Paul did not do so well at times, especially with his own people. So, be encouraged; continue in obedience, and keep your feet beautiful! Over the years, Jews have not only turned their backs on the Gospel, but also on their own faith. They have become agnostic, antagonistic, and bitter, holding onto their culture while rejecting truth and faith.

They hide behind the faith of their ancestors and use persecution as an excuse to "pew-sit" and do nothing. Then the Messiah comes and they reject Him, the Apostles come and they reject them, we regular Christian folks come and so it goes, rejection. But, we never give in or give up because we are to live Christ and then are further called not to stray in our hearts. As people who are called to make Christ known, we must identify with God and what He had to do with His Son.

We must also be aware of our witness and how we are characterized by others. Our integrity and character are the most important things we have to offer to a non-Christian. With this said, our focus becomes to honor our Lord and continue the practice and projection of our faith. There is a big difference between "self-imposed" righteousness and obedience to righteousness.

Then we are witnessing, really, truly witnessing with our mouths from the words of our heart. God calls this beautiful; that is, to have "beautiful feet" to bring the Good News Isaiah This is why Romans we send missionaries and evangelists from our churches.

We have Him in us; now, we make Him known from our heart with our mouths and feet. These are the further marching orders from Matthew to evangelize and disciple, yet so few Christians ever do it; so few churches do it.

What an extreme insult we must be to Christ to ignore His call! Remember, it is not our efforts that save; however, it is our responsibility to preach and witness, regardless of results. Christ is the true preacher and witness. This point is so important to understand, because if we do not, we are likely to get depressed and give up.

We are not responsible for results; we are only responsible for obedience. Why do I keep repeating this? Because, too many Christians just do not get it. That is, we are called to tell others about Christ, but we are not responsible for how they respond. If they reject us, they are truly rejecting Christ. We are only called to preach and disciple. We cannot convert anyone; that is the role of the Holy Spirit.

He uses our voices and words, but only He can change a person's soul. The reason why we should evangelize is because Jesus Himself evangelized. Jesus preached to sinners and He died for sinners so that they may repent.

Therefore the reason why we evangelize is so that we help people to repent from sinful living so that they may live for Christ and not for themselves. Do you know that Jesus died for the worst kind of people on this planet? Ephesians NKJV — For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, 9 not of works, lest anyone should boast.

As Christians we are saved by the grace of God and not because of our own goodness or our own righteousness. Christ tells us that there is a big harvest of unbelievers who need to repent and who need to hear the gospel so that they come to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ.

Despite an abundance of churches and Christians, there is a very small ratio of people willing to evangelize. Therefore Christ encourages to pray for more laborers to evangelize and share the gospel because God is no willing for anyone to perish. Are you willing to be one of the laborers? If our neighbor is not a Christian we must be motivated by love to speak the gospel because we do not desire to see anybody perish in hell just as God Himself does not desire to see anyone perish.

God was motivated by love so much that He sent His only begotten Son Jesus Christ to die for our sins so that if whosever believes in Him shall not perish John Therefore let love be our motivator.
