Sharing Your Faith-2

Sharing Your Faith-1

Spiritual Growth- Faith

A local church is God's platform for training a believer for the work of ministry and also a believer is trained to achieve purpose in the local church.

What is God passionate about? he is not passionate about wealth or good economy but he is more passionate about salvation, he wills that all men are saved and also come to the knowledge of the truth (2tim 2:1-4, 2pet3:9)

According to Charles Spurgeon we are either believers or imposters, we as believers are supposed to be passionate about souls. When we see the need for salvation we will evangelize more. Our passion for the preaching of the gospel should transcend all areas of our lives. There is joy in heaven when a soul is won.

Every believer has a single purpose, which is to let people know what Christ has done on the cross. Purpose is that one thing we must achieve that nothing else counts, never confuse your assignment for purpose. Where your treasure is, there your heart is.

We can identify a good local church when:

a. They have a good understanding of the gospel. (1tim3:16, gal 1:8)

b. They must have a good theology on money, money is a spiritual stethoscope. it shows the state of a believers spiritual health(1tim6:5-6 matt 6:19-20)

c. The charismatic ministry must be taught and practiced fully. The charismatic is an actual bait to lure unbelievers

d. They must be mission-minded and also train members to evangelize.

My role in my local church

1. I always must be available for meetings and also participate in other activities, a local church is Gods platform for training us for the work of ministry.

2. Participate in everything that is being instructed by the pastor

3. Commitment to every activity is very key because our growth as believers takes place in a local church.

4. Give my resources for the work of ministry, where your treasure is that is where your heart is.

in this sermon, we were taught how to read the epistles properly.
