    • Isaiah 59:2
    • II Thessalonians 1:8-9
    • Whoever we are talking to will find out at some point that they are guilty of sin. We are just trying to make sure they find out early enough to do something about it.
    • Most people would admin they are not perfect.
    • We must have a good attitude when we speak to others. Speak to them in love!
    • It may help to use the word “us.”
      • Acts 22:4-5, 20; 26:9-11
      • I Timothy 1:15 – Paul called himself the “foremost sinner.”

        • Ephesians 1:7
        • Colossians 1:13-14
        • Jesus alone is the savior. Not a church or a pastor. The church doesn’t save – the church is composed of the saved.

            • “We have to follow God’s instructions to receive this gift!”
            • II Thessalonians 1:8
            • Both of these are true!
              • Ephesians 2:8; Matthew 7:21
              • Romans 4:5; James 2:24
              • Titus 3:5; II Corinthians 5:10
