“I Have Many People”

Pastor Joey Anjiki

1. Paul’s exhaustion

* 1 Corinthians 2:3 “ I came to you in weakness with great fear and trembling.” (NIV)

* COVID-19 and the Unification Church problems

2. Do not be afraid; keep on speaking

* Acts 18:9 “Do not be afraid; keep on speaking, do not be silent.” (NIV)

* The reasons we don’t need to fear

(1) “I am with you”

- Livingston

(2) “I have many people in this city”

3. Stay

* Acts 18:11 “So Paul stayed in Corinth for a year and a half, teaching them the word of God.” (NIV)

* 1964: The year Minemachi Christ Church was built by missionaries from Sweden

Thoughts to share at mini church:

1. What are things that may make people hesitant to proclaim the Gospel?

2. Why is it that we can continue to proclaim it without fear?
