How To Preach The Gospel And Win Souls

“Go ye into all the word, and preach the gospel to every creature. He that believeth and is baptized is saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned” Mark 16:16.

Our purpose for remaining in this world after we are saved is to ensure that more people are turned to God through Jesus Christ. There is no salvation in any other and no other name has been given under heaven among men whereby we must be saved (Acts 4: 12).

This sole commission was not assigned to a church name or specific congregation but to every individual who is a Believer; not as a religious act but an act of love for lost souls and in fulfillment of our spiritual responsibility of reconciling unbelieving man to a faithful God.
 “To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation” 
2 Corinthians 5:19.

How Can We Then Preach the Gospel?
The challenge is FEAR of what to say,  How (or when) to APPROACH people with a sensitive matter such as Are You Born Again? Or What will be my RESPONSE when I am asked a difficult question? or I don’t know enough scripture?

1.     You can overcome FEAR when you preach the gospel with your Personal Salvation story or Testimony that way you have sure proof and total conviction that your message of Christ will have the same great result in other lives. But ensure that your testimony is centered on Jesus Christ. What was your problem? What did God do for you and what can God do for the person hearing your story? John 4:6-30 – Notice how Jesus spoke with the Samaria Woman? Vs 28, see how she brought people to Jesus.

2.     Jesus is the Master soul winner and we can learn of his methods in ministering to particular individuals, in Matthew Jesus won his disciples and in John 3 how he spoke with Nicodemus (who climbed a tree to hear Jesus). Soul winning is spiritual so always pray for those you want to speak to first. What works is Christ message of Love and Hope instead of Condemnation and guilt.  Never assume that your hearer doesn’t have any knowledge of Jesus, ask them first and build on what they know then make corrections when it is wrong, validate or expand what truth they know.

3.     Jesus had the right answers to all the questions, assumptions and thoughts of people that came to him. Now you may not have all the scriptural response to questions you will be asked but that is no deterrent. Where you do not have enough information, invite your hearer for a bible study meeting in your church /group where your pastor can explain. When they come the Holy Spirit can broaden their understanding of another area that answers the question that brought them. God is that sweet.

A person does not have to be won to Christ in a onetime discussion with you. Oftentimes they need to be exposed to the word of God continually until their heart and spirit is saturated to bring about conversion. 


So, if you have been trying to speak to a family, friend or colleague about Christ without result, do not stop praying, loving or talking. You are sowing a seed in their hearts that will produce a result at a later time when a stranger shares the gospel with them.

To Love a man is to be his eyes, his cons...
