What Is A Gospel Meeting? Acts 10:

A Successful Gospel Meeting Why Are We Having A Gospel Meeting? –The church is “the pillar and ground of the truth.” 1 Timothy 3:15 –We are to “speak the truth in love.” Ephesians 4:15 –“Go make disciples …” Matthew 28:19 2

A Successful Gospel Meeting Some question the effectiveness of meetings. –Reflection on the power of the gospel (Romans 1:16; 2 Corinthians 10:4) –People still respond (1 Corinthians 3:6-7) –One of several means used to reach the lost (Bible Correspondence Course, Home Study, Radio, Tracts, etc.) 3

A Successful Gospel Meeting Church Must Realize Its Responsibility. –To its members. Ephesians 4:16 –Invite the lost, follow-up & encourage. cf. Matthew 11:28; 9:36ff –Emphasize Bible preaching. Jonah 3:1; cf. Matthew 12:41 4

Each member do his/her part. Pray fervently. James 5:16; 1 Peter 3:12 Attend every service. Hebrews 10:24 “Thou shalt be missed, because thy seat will be empty.” 1 Samuel 20:18 Arrive early! cf. Acts 10:33 “Now therefore we are all here present …” Cornelius was waiting for Peter. cf. verse. 24 A Successful Gospel Meeting 5

Each member do his/her part. Invite the lost, follow-up, & encourage. Cornelius had invited kinsmen and near friends. Acts 10:24 Andrew invited his brother, Simon. John 1: Samaritan woman invited the people of the city. John 4:29 A Successful Gospel Meeting 6

Each member do his/her part. Show hospitality. Romans 12:13; cf. James 2:1ffShow hospitality. Romans 12:13; cf. James 2:1ff “We never get a second chance to make a good first impression.”“We never get a second chance to make a good first impression.” A Successful Gospel Meeting 7

 Gospel Message – Redemption / Salvation – Power unto salvation (Romans 1:16-17) – How we are saved (1 Corinthians 15:1-4) – Peter’s sermon – salvation from sin (Acts 2) “Hear these words …” – Paul’s sermon on Mars Hill – salvation (Acts 17:22-31) A Successful Gospel Meeting 9

 Gospel Message – Redemption / Salvation – Peter’s sermon to Gentiles (Acts 10:34-48) – Paul’s Sermon in Antioch on 1 st Journey (Acts 13:16-41) “Hearken …” –Paul’s parting Miletus. (Acts 20:32) A Successful Gospel Meeting 10

 View the world as lost in sin. Ephesians 2:1-2, 12 – All men are sinners (Romans 3:9, 23) – Sin separates from God (Isaiah 59:1-2) – If die in sin – hell. (Romans 6:23; 2 Thessalonians 1:7-9) – Reason Jesus came to earth (Luke 19:10) Anyone who has not obeyed the gospel is lost in sin! A Successful Gospel Meeting 11

 World is lost in sin  How we view people of the world – Good people – Believe different than we do – Focus on friendship, likeable, good moral qualities – Little or no attention to the fact – they are LOST! May be because our focus is on the here and now! A Successful Gospel Meeting 12
