Gospel Meetings Why have them?

Why not to have a gospel m.? Not to raise funds for the church - 1 Cor 16:1-2 Not to promote selfish interests - Phil 2:4 The image of the local church – Rev 3:1 The image of the preacher – 1 Cor 3:5 Not simply to stir up emotions - John 6:45 Not to entertain or share a meal - 1 Cor 11:22 Not to hold up a human tradition - Mark 7:8-9; John 4:37-38; Rom 1:15; 1 Cor 3:5-8

Why have a gospel meeting? To enable the gospel to do its work Acts 26:18 [Jesus to Saul] – to open their eyes, in order to turn them from darkness to light, & from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins & an inheritance among those who are sanctified by faith in Me.'

Why have a gospel meeting? To provide an occasion to worship God Heb 13:14-16 – For here we have no continuing city, but we seek the one to come. 15 Therefore by Him let us continually offer the sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of our lips, giving thanks to His name (Psa 63:1-5).

Why have a gospel meeting? To enable the gospel to do its work Isa 55:11 – My word…shall not return to Me void, but it shall accomplish what I please, & it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.

Why have a gospel meeting? To exalt the Son of God 1 Peter 2:2-4 – as newborn babes, desire the pure milk of the word, that you may grow thereby, 3 if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is gracious. 4 Coming to Him as to a living stone, rejected indeed by men, but chosen by God & precious,

Why have a gospel meeting? To enable the Holy Spirit John 16:8 – And when He has come, He will convict [convince] the world of sin [transgression of God’s Law] & of righteousness [of Christ & His law], & of judgment [to come]

Why have a gospel meeting? To strengthen each saint Acts 20:32 – So now, brethren, I commend you to God & to the word of His grace, which is able to build you up & give you an inheritance among all those who are sanctified.

A Successful Gospel Meeting To be at every service! To invite or bring someone. To welcome guests & non-members. To join enthusiastically in the singing. To demonstrate genuine interest. To come early & stay late if possible. To pray for God’s will to be done.
