What the World Needs Now Prepared by Chris Reeves * Eastside church of Christ Gospel Meeting * June 29, 2008

The World Needs the Gospel Sin – a worldwide need (Rom. 3:23; 6:23) Jesus – a worldwide remedy (1 Tim. 2:4; 4:10) Gospel – a worldwide call (John 6:44-45) Preaching – a worldwide conviction (Jn. 16:8-11) Go – a worldwide commission (Mt. 28:19; Mk. 16:15)

The World Needs the Gospel We must speak it (Rom. 1:14-15; 1 Cor. 9:16) We must speak it plainly (Acts 4:29) We must speak all of it (Acts 20:20,27) We must speak it to all (Mk. 16:15-16) We must speak it in love (Eph. 4:15) We must speak it continually (2 Tim. 4:2)

The World Needs An Uncompromised Gospel Friendship evangelism (Acts 2:37-41)? Preach the man, not the plan (Acts 8:35-36)? Recreation & social activities (Jn. 6:27)? Accentuate the positive (2 Tim. 4:2)? Emphasis on oratory (1 Cor. 2:1-5)? Community church / house church appeal (Eph. 4:4-6)?

What the World Needs Now What the world needs, the world may not want What the world needs, the world needs it now What the world needs, we have… Make an impact with your example (2 Cor. 3:2-3) Make an impact with your words (Col. 4:6) Make an impact with your Bible (Acts 8:4)
