DISCOVER LIFE…everlasting “The Fragrance of Life to Life” 2 Corinthians 2:12-17

The Fragrance of Life I. SPIRITUAL OPEN DOORS: (vs.12,13) Open Doors: The Gospel is for cities of people, not churches. Churches result from the preaching. The Gospel is for groups of people, not congregations Congregations result from conversions.

Fragrance is our Mission: The Fragrance of Life II. SPREADING THE PROPER FRAGRANCE: (vs.14-16) Fragrance is our Mission: A Fragrance of Life: If you have been given life, give life away. 2 Cor 3:5,6 A Fragrance of Death: If you are giving off a fragrance death, it will only breed death.

The Fragrance of Life III. SENSITIVE COMMUNICATION: (vs.17) A. The Accusation: “Peddlers of God’s Word” B. The Aroma: “sincerity” (out of pure motives and ambitions) C. The Assignment: “we speak in Christ”

The Fragrance of Life
