Do Not Be Afraid to Tell the Good News Christians have good news and we must tell it. When we share Scripture, we share Jesus. If we are His disciples, we tell others about Him. Inviting others to take a Bible correspondence course is one easy method of telling the good news. Acts 8:4, 8, 39; Romans 6:23

Go “Make Disciples” The Apostles led the way in making disciples (Matthew 28:18-20; Acts 5:41-42) Others followed their lead! (Acts 8:4) Their purpose is our purpose! (Mark 16:15-16; Acts 26:18) The Master is expecting this of us! (Luke 14:23) We must fish and keep at it! (Matt. 4:19)

Do not be Afraid that Imperfection Disqualifies You The Lord helped both Peter and Paul overcome this fear (Luke 5:4-10; 1 Timothy 1:12-15) Men with the gospel are jars of clay! (2 Cor. 4:7)

Do not be Afraid that You Won’t Know What to Say Get yourself ready! (1 Peter 3:15) Study! (2 Timothy 2:15) Investigate! (Acts 17:11) Pray! (Acts 4:29; Col. 4:2-6) Get experience!

Do not be Afraid of Rejection or Persecution Paul at Corinth Acts 18:1-17 1 Corinthians 2:2-3 Respect God’s Power, not man’s 1 Peter 3:13-16 Luke 12:1-3 2 Timothy 1:7-8

No one in heaven will think they spent too much time sharing the gospel! (1 Thess. 2:19-29) Every soul is priceless to God! The more you step out in faith to share the gospel, the more God will empower you. (Eph. 3:20; Phil. 2:13) It doesn’t matter if people of the world don’t like you. (Prov. 29:25) If you let fear win, you’ll regret it for eternity. Don’t Be a Chicken
