Spiritual Emphasis: One business that every believer has been called to do is Evangelism – 2 Corinthians 5:17-18. Evangelism is the act of preaching the gospel, to share the Good News about our Lord Jesus Christ. Put simply, evangelism is to be busy, active, and innovative with preaching of the gospel of Jesus. Different channels must be used to preach and reach the lost with the gospel of salvation. The preaching of the gospel is a serious business assigned to us by the Master. It must be consciously, consistently, and conscientiously done by all believers.

      Our Business Too

  • Sowing The Seed of The Word is Our Business Too: Preaching the Gospel to the lost is a serious occupation Jesus handed to us when He gave the command to go into the world and preach the gospel to all creation. This Kingdom business must be done with zeal and divine wisdom – Mark 16:15; John 4:34; Eccles. 10:10; Luke 9:60; Acts 5:42.
  • Our Business of Sowing the Seed of The Word Must Be Strategic: As a good businessman or woman, we must be strategic, creative and seize every opportunity to talk about the good news of Jesus. This business must be done sacrificially. It may not be convenient at times, but we must still go ahead and witness Jesus – Acts 26:27-29; 1 Corinthians 9:19-23; 2 Timothy 4:2.

Questions/Activities: In 3 ways, relate conventional business with the business of evangelizing.

Conclusion

Shalom!
