The document discusses reasons why churches are not converting the world to Christianity through sharing the gospel message. It argues that churches are not viewing the world as lost and in need of salvation, their message has shifted away from the gospel, and they are content to just maintain their congregations rather than actively work to reach the lost. It encourages churches to become more evangelistic by sharing the gospel with friends and family, conducting home Bible studies, inviting people to services, and committing more time, effort and resources to spreading the message of Christ.

Can you recommend your religion
This document discusses how to evaluate and recommend one's religion based on biblical principles. It suggests examining whether one's faith and doctrines are based on scripture, whether they are a disciple of Jesus by continuing in his word, and whether their life exemplifies the gospel through good works. The document also addresses recommending one's religion based on church attendance, financial support, and whether it provides spiritual blessings and strength. It concludes by defining the characteristics of a New Testament Christian.
Changeless Gospel
The gospel does not need to change to keep up with the times. While fashions, occupations, politics, and governments change, the gospel remains perfect and complete. It was designed by God to be a spiritual guide that draws people to God, saves them from sin, guides them as Christians, and keeps them saved. The gospel was effective among first-century Christians and the early church. It is intended to endure for all time as the means to produce faith and lead people from earth to heaven. The world may change, but the gospel cannot because it is perfect and does not need improvement.

The document discusses not taking the gospel of salvation and grace for granted. It emphasizes that grace is not a license to sin but to overcome sin through Christ. While grace forgives sin, believers must die to sin and self and live for God. The conduct of believers should reflect their changed life in Christ so as not to cause others to stumble in their faith or doubt their own salvation. Unbelievers and new believers should see Christ living within believers through their godly behavior and speech.

Ecclessiology 2
This document discusses Baptist beliefs about ecclesiology and the doctrine of the church. It covers several key points:
1) Baptists believe that Jesus established local churches, not a universal church hierarchy. Each local church is autonomous under the leadership of its own pastor.
2) Over time, some errors crept into the early church, including pastors assuming authority over each other, an emphasis on baptismal regeneration, and the incorporation of pagan practices. This led to the development of the Catholic Church hierarchy.
3) The primary purposes of the local church are to worship God, evangelize the world, and perfect the saints (mature believers in their faith). Church activities should prioritize soul winning and disciple

sermon by Mike Smith
Doing the Lord's work and striving to win souls is very important but so is living the Christian life!
Finding purpose wcc jul 12
This document discusses finding purpose and living according to God's will. It provides biblical passages about abiding in Jesus, following his example of love and sacrifice, and making disciples. The document encourages committing one's life to a multiplying community, praying for the world daily, reading the New Testament in 30 days, sacrificing money and time for gospel purposes, and witnessing to others over 35 days. The overall message is about finding purpose and fruitfulness through a relationship with Jesus Christ.
The Encounter Story - Spring 2015
The Encounter Story is filled with uplifting articles of what God is doing throughout the various areas of Encounter Revival Ministries. This is our quarterly publication meant to keep you updated with how your involvement with Encounter is helping us do great things for God and His people in the U.S. and around the world!
Growing in God 4
The document discusses four foundational Christian practices: fellowship, witnessing, giving, and serving. It defines fellowship as intimate sharing of life with other Christians to meet social, emotional, and spiritual needs. Witnessing is sharing the gospel through lifestyle, personal experience with Christ, and clear proclamation of the message. Giving guidelines include giving systematically, proportionately, generously, and to one's local church and missions. Serving involves both desiring great things for God but being willing to start with menial tasks, as greatness comes through service not position. These practices build Christians up in their faith.
Unit Ii Faith Around Us (Webquest)
The document discusses several key aspects of religion including:
1) It defines religion as a personal or institutionalized system grounded in belief and worship of a supernatural power that controls human destiny.
2) It explores the existence of God from different perspectives including as Catholics, as people in general, and personally, and how we can learn about God through scripture and forgiveness.
3) It addresses comparing one's own personal faith and rules to those of the Church and world, and discusses whether religious or world views are easier to follow.
Assurance of guidance v1
This document discusses assurance of guidance from God. It outlines our role in seeking guidance through trusting God, dedicating our lives to him, and listening to his voice. God's role is to give wisdom, lead us to truth, and guide us in all aspects of life. Key provisions for guidance include the Holy Spirit, God's word, and godly counselors. David's life is presented as an example of following God's guidance from humble beginnings to becoming king. Specific guidance comes through the Holy Spirit and counselors, while God's general will is revealed through scripture. The document ends with bible verses on God's revealed guidance and discussion questions.
Do you belong?
This document discusses how Christians belong to God and each other as part of God's family. It emphasizes that Christians should serve God faithfully, serve each other with love, and serve others through sharing the gospel and living a godly example. The document concludes by encouraging readers to belong where they worship so they can grow together and be of help to one another.

Elevating Self
The document discusses why self-elevation is wrong based on biblical passages. It notes that Jesus told a parable about a Pharisee who elevated himself by boasting about his righteousness compared to others. However, Jesus taught that the Pharisee was not justified before God and that everyone who exalts themselves will be humbled. Additionally, several proverbs warn that pride comes before destruction and that there is more hope for a fool than for someone who is wise in their own eyes. The document concludes by advising humility under God in order to be exalted at the proper time.
Self elevation
Paul warned against thinking too highly of oneself because Jesus taught that those who elevate themselves will be humbled. The Pharisee in Jesus' parable elevated himself over the tax collector by thanking God he was not like other sinners, but the tax collector who humbled himself was justified. Proverbs also warns that pride comes before destruction while humility precedes honor.
At Jesus' feet
The document discusses how those who suffer, are sick, sorrow, sin, need thanksgiving, or seek truth can find what they need at Jesus' feet. It provides biblical references showing Jesus helping those who suffered, were sick, in sorrow, and sinned. It also notes one can thank Jesus or seek truth from him. The document concludes with a quote from Psalms describing the benefits one receives from blessing and forgetting not the benefits of the Lord.
The last day
The document describes events that occur on the last day when Jesus returns. It tells of warning sirens sounding and people realizing this is the end. One person wants to be baptized now realizing it may be too late. Strange things start happening and someone sees Jesus in the sky. Fires break out and people are brought before God for judgment. One person claims to have been Christian their life but is still sent to darkness, realizing God has forgotten and left them alone forever. The epilogue discusses three people not ready - one who refused to obey the gospel, one with secret sin, and one who was a hypocrite. It asks what the reader's story would be if Jesus returned right now.
Throwback uniforms
The document discusses recalling the former days of early Christianity and conforming to Christ rather than the present world. It encourages seeking the old paths by putting on Christ in baptism, conforming to him as he is changeless, and remembering God's eternal counsel. The document advocates striving to return to the apostolic times by abiding in the teachings from the beginning and accepting no other gospel than what was taught by the apostles.
Rescued-chile mine
This document uses the 2010 Chilean mine disaster as an analogy for salvation through Jesus Christ. It discusses how (1) help must come from above, like God sending Jesus to save humanity, (2) those above did the hard work of planning and executing the rescue while the rescued miners' role was relatively easy, and (3) there will be a great reunion in heaven between believers, just as the miners were reunited with their families after being rescued.
Fulfillment
Solomon attempted to find fulfillment through pleasures, possessions, alcohol, sex, family, and achievements but concluded that the only true fulfillment is found in God. The document goes on to say that fulfillment is found specifically in Christ, who is the reason for all of creation and fills believers. Christians should comprehend that as believers in Christ they are filled with peace, and only Christ can provide true and complete fulfillment.
The greatest sermon ever preached
The document discusses the qualities of the greatest sermon ever preached according to the Bible. It states that greatness is hindered by pride but attained through humility, as exemplified by John the Baptist. The greatest sermon is characterized by service, like Jesus served others rather than exalting himself. It involves giving oneself in humble service to God, like Jesus gave his life for others.
Does Jesus care?
Jesus cares deeply for those who are struggling. He understands pain, temptation, sadness, and fear. The Bible tells us that through his sacrifice, Jesus opened the way for us to bring our burdens to God. We can cast all our anxieties on Jesus, and he will help and comfort us. No matter what challenges we face, Jesus is always with us.
Six pillars of character
The document discusses building character based on having a God-centered worldview and fearing God. It outlines several elements involved in building a trustworthy character, including honesty, integrity, reliability and loyalty. It also discusses building respect, responsibility, fairness, caring spirit, and good citizenship into one's character. The overall message is that developing strong character begins with having the fear of God as one's foundation.
Becoming strong in grace
The document discusses how to become strong in grace through God. It states that grace is accessed through faith in Jesus Christ. A person can grow stronger in grace by using their God-given abilities, being humble, walking uprightly, giving, and through God's word. However, one can grow weaker by attempting to be justified by the Law of Moses, continuing in sin such as bitterness or lewdness. The conclusion encourages the reader to become strong in grace.
There they crucified him
They crucified Jesus at a place called Golgotha, also known as Calvary, which means "the skull". Roman soldiers carried out the crucifixion on Jesus, the Son of God and Lord of Glory, in accordance with the will of the Jewish leaders and as a fulfillment of scripture that he would die for the sins of humanity.
Ppc abundant life
The abundant life is an eternal life that consists of more than what is experienced on earth and has an eternal perspective. It can only be enjoyed by believing and repenting, following Christ, and being persistent, and it comes from God through his word.
great command
The document discusses the greatest commandment from the Bible to love God with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength. It explains that this means to seek God with affection, be thankful for what He has given, give your entire self to God, focus your mind on learning His word, and use all your abilities and resources for Him. The first and greatest commandment is to love the Lord your God with all aspects of yourself.
learning how to count
This passage discusses how to properly count or view different aspects of life according to biblical principles. It encourages counting trials as joy, esteeming others above oneself, not considering oneself as having achieved perfection, and considering all things as loss compared to knowing Christ. The overall message is about gaining the right perspective on life's challenges and priorities according to God's word.
false prophets
The document warns about false prophets who speak without God's authority, diverting people from the truth and dividing communities, with false prophets facing damnation. It encourages detecting false prophets by testing whether their teachings are consistent with God's word, as many false prophets exist in the world seeking to mislead people.
lame sacrifices
The document discusses lame sacrifices that do not honor God. It notes that while the Law required unblemished animals for sacrifice, God was more concerned with the condition of the worshipper's heart. Lame sacrifices are characterized as being half-hearted and of inferior quality, dishonoring to God. The document asks if our own sacrifices - such as prayers, songs, gifts, and service - are lame in a similar way. It concludes by emphasizing that we were redeemed through the perfect sacrifice of Jesus Christ.
The ark and the church
The document compares and contrasts the biblical Ark built by Noah and the Church. It notes that both were built by God through Noah and Christ respectively, both have one builder, and both provide salvation for those within (the Ark and the Church) while those outside face destruction. The Ark and Church each have one window, one door, and serve as the family for those who are inside.
Be still my soul
God is described as a rock in the Bible, representing salvation, refuge, defense, strength, and glory. Because God is a rock, the Psalmist encourages trusting in Him alone rather than in people or money, and waiting silently for Him while pouring out one's heart.
the last chapter
The document discusses how one can make the most of their "last chapter" in life by being obedient to God, having peace and hope, and partaking in Christ. It notes that in one's final days, they can avoid simply following what seems right, disobeying the gospel, and collecting wages of sin. The document concludes that one's last chapter does not need to be "the end" if they become slaves to God, as the end can instead be everlasting life.
