Pastor Tokunbo Beulah Johnson teaching on POWER OF TESTIMONY

Is The Gospel Really True? Is it truly the Power of God to change lives? What Am I A Witness To?  Does My Gospel Have A Proof?

Ability to have these questions answered is very essential to any successful gospel adventure or how would people believe?

Text : John 1:6-13; John 4:39-42 ; John 5:31-39

TESTIMONIES VALIDATE THE GOSPEL

Nothing validates the gospel like Testimonies/Witnessing.1 John 1:1-3 puts it this way:

1. “That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked at and our hands have touched- this we proclaim concerning the Word of life.

2. The life appeared; we have seen it and testify to it, and we proclaim to you the eternal life, which was with the Father and has appeared to us.

3. We proclaim to you what we have seen and heard, so that you also may have fellowship with us. And our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ.”

 

God bless you as you listen.

Pastor Tokunbo Beulah Johnson teaching on STRATEGIES FOR THE GOSPEL MESSAGE.

Let’s look at the ‘Great Commission’ verses:

Matt 28:19 (Disciple the nations)

Mk 16:15 (Evangelize) Preach the gospel everywhere.

Lk 24 :44-49(Teach)

Jn. 20-21 (Send) There is a sending command to all children of God to go. Every church must ‘Go…’

Acts 1:8(Strategize). Every church should identify a strategy to reach their Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria, Uttermost part of the earth.

 

MEANS: THE HOW?  Jesus taught us how in Luke 10:1-24

 

Q: What Means Should We Adopt For The Conversion Of Unbelievers? (Ref: Book by William Carey (An enquiry into the means,,,")

 

MINISTRY Pattern OF JESUS 

Synagogue (Interface with the Old Jewish people)

The Temple (interface with the religious people of Judaism)

Sending out teams. Luke 10; Matt.10

 

MINISTRY PATTERN OF THE EARLY CHURCH (BOOK OF ACTS)

Local churches. Acts 2:1-4,42-47.

Apostolic teams (That were sent out from the churches) Acts 13:1-3

Acts 16:1-3. Paul enlisted a Greek boy, Timothy and circumcised him for cultural compliance.

Last week we examined one of the two Concepts that will make our message credible: The Sin Problem/CHRIST THE CURE and The Hope Of Eternal Life.

 These two Concepts always took centre stage whenever the true Gospel Message was truly preached.

Call To Action: Repentance is the ONLY Cure from Sin. Acts 3:19.

Hope Of Eternal Life. This life is in Christ Jesus. 1Jn.5:1-13; Jn.17:1-3.

Eternal life simply means there shall be no break in consciousness even when you close your eyes in death. A NEVER DYING LIFE. MAN SHALL LIVE FOREVER!

The Glorification of our body into ‘spirit-body’ is coming after life’s physical journey. Col.3:3,4. We will appear with Him in glory!

This will occur either when we transition by physical death or when Christ Appears in glory! The Blessed Hope. The glorious appearing of Christ. Titus 2:13
