HOW TO LEAD A PERSON TO CHRIST.
You may already desire to lead people to Jesus, but you are unsure how to go about it.
Today you can learn what to do.
Here is how.
There are many ways to approach the subject practically.
By asking a direct question. ie, “If you died today (I hope you don’t), would you know for sure that you would go to Heaven?” Or..
“Do you have a church that you attend?” Or..
You can share the Gospel from their point of need. I.e. Jesus as their friend. Jesus is their hope for the future, Jesus as their Healer, Comforter, and Strengthener,       Â
Or some other approaches…
The state of this sin sick world world.
The second coming of Christ who could return at any time. But, Fear not!
The Holy Spirit will lead you how to open the subject. I don’t plan what I will say, but He leads me every time.
Memorize some scriptures that you can use to help them to understand the message of Salvation. If your memory is poor then use one verse and go from there ie…
Memorize this Gospel verse.
You can use your Bible if that’s easier.
Isaiah 53:5 “But He was wounded” etc.
The verses in this whole chapter are excellent to enlighten the Jew that Jesus is their Messiah.
THE METHOD.
1. We are all sinners. How sin entered into this world (Adam and Eve). Romans 3:23. “ALL HAVE SINNED.”
Sin passed on to all men. We were born sinners and need a Saviour.
Psalm 51:5
“IN SIN MY MOTHER CONCEIVED ME.”
2. The Punishment for sin is Eternal Separation from God in Hell. And the total isolation from any other person you may know, plus the torment of hellfire that is never extinguished. This is called the second death. (Spiritual death)
3.The remedy for sin is Jesus Christ the sinless Son of God who paid the price for sin.
“God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself.”
2nd Corinthians 11:15.
“The payment for sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” Romans 6:23.
He shed His blood for the cleansing away of our sins. He died so that we may truly live. 1 Peter 2:24.
“He bore our sins in His own body on the tree (cross), that we, being dead because of sin, should live unto righteousness, by whose stripes (wounds that ripped His body to shreds). WE WERE HEALED!!”
NOW MAKE IT PERSONAL. Share your testimony of how you were saved. Keep it Sharp, Short and Simple!
EXPLAIN.
This is not a religion but a personal relationship with God through Jesus.
BRING IT HOME.
“What about you?”
“Are you a sinner?”
“Do you believe that Jesus wants to save you?”
Would you like me to pray for you? This is where you bow your head a close your eyes and thank God for them and ask Him to open their hearts to receive Him.
Now, invite them to repeat the prayer of Salvation after you.
Encourage them to pray verbally or in their hearts to invite receive Jesus into their lives.
You can quote or read Romans 10:9-13.
“WHOEVER CALLS UON THE NAME OF JESUS…
(They may want to pray silently in their hearts).
SHALL BE SAVED!”
OFFER ASSURANCE OF THEIR SALVATION.
Assure them,
“The moment you prayed this prayer Jesus Christ saved you.”
Offer to meet with them at a another time.
Offer to meet or drive them to church. as going to Church can be daunting.
Obtain an easy-to-understand Bible for them to read.
Offer to sit with them at church so you can introduce them to the Pastor.
Please encourage them to share their newfound faith with a friend. This cements the decision in their hearts.
This method is how I share the Salvation message and many have come to Christ. It is adaptable according to the person’s age, their intellectual capacity, their concentration level.
They may need to ask questions, answer them patiently and succinctly. If you do not know the appropriate answer, tell them that you will find out the answer and get back to them.
Stay on the subject as some people will ask questions to avoid making a decision.
Dear reader, God has people you can reach that I cannot touch.
If you are a shut-in, pray that God will send them to your door.
You can share the Gospel through the media, texting, and by sending tracts through the post. Anointed music is a great way to share the Gospel.
MY EXPERIENCE…YET NOT I.
IT IS GOD AT WORK IN AND THROUGH ME!
Complete Strangers.
A lady waiting for a bus on the verge of suicide came to Christ. I gave her my mother’s Bible.
A man beside me on a flight from USA to AUSTRALIA. He was very resistant at first. The Lord opened his heart and hours later he came to the Lord in tears just as we were touching down at Mascot. He told me that his sister had been praying for him for thirty years! Praise God.
On the community bus : drivers and old people have decided to follow Jesus. One lady received the Lord and two weeks later was in the presence of God.
Taxi Drivers, Patients in Hospitals. Nursing homes.
Door knocking in my local area.
Maintenance men.
People in Shopping Mauls. Coffee shops.
Shop assistants.
Check-out chicks.
At Funerals.
With Neighbours.
With friends and family.
With drug addicts.
To Homosexuals.
Drs, Chiropractors.
While teaching Scripture… One time, the whole class gave their hearts to the Lord. That is what I call revival! Hallelujah!
And “whoever” God sends across my path.
Can you imagine what it will be like when you go to Heaven and discover people there because you took the time to share the Gospel?
IF I CAN DO IT… SO CAN YOU!!
WHY DON’T YOU START TODAY?
All honour and Glory be to The Father, through Jesus Christ and the power of the Holy Spirit, who does all things well.
Amen.
Prayer of salvation.
“Father I come to you in the Name of Jesus. I am a sinner and in need of Salvation. I believe that you died for me and rose again from the dead.
I now invite you to save me from sin and live your life in and through me. Holy Spirit fill and baptize me in your presence.
“THANK YOU FOR SAVING MY SOUL.THANKYOU FOR MAKING ME WHOLE. THANKYOU FOR GIVING TO ME. YOUR SALVATION SO RICH AND SO FREE.“
Amen.
