Jeanie and I were reading Spurgeon today in his Morning and Evening devotional. The message was about the inventive means that some people took to bring a poor sick man to Jesus by breaking through the roof. Read it here and I will make some comments:
“And when they could not come nigh unto him for the press, they uncovered the roof where he was: and when they had broken it up, they let down the bed wherein the sick of the palsy lay.” — Mark 2:4
FAITH IS FULL OF INVENTIONS!I was calling preachers last week about AUTOMATED CHURCH PROSPECTING and got some very strange answers. One man said his church had decided to go a different way. Another said someone in his church, an elderly woman, thought that people would be offended at phone calls coming to their home about anything having to do with the church. I got to thinking about some of the excuses and compared that with those pastors who have had success with our system and I began to think about what does it take to stop someone from winning all the people that they can in their city. I have preachers say that they need to ask the deacons. Others want to vote on it at the business meeting. Others say that they don’t want to offend anyone in the neighborhood. So I thought I would ask some questions myself and you tell me if you would consult the deacons, the business meeting, or if you think someone would be offended.
Pastor:
We are living in the last days. Jesus is coming back soon. The political climate is worse than ever and no one knows just how long our freedoms will last. Now more than ever we need to get the gospel to EVERY creature. I have a dream that one day we will have the database for the whole United States of America and we can call millions of people with a message to visit our IF YOU COULD KNOW THAT JESUS LOVES YOU video. We have several websites, including that one the one with the video that have a Google Translator on them and we have readers from all over the world. We use emails and voice broadcasting to get people to the sites. Just think of how much more exposure your church would get if you had the AUTOMATED VOICE BROADCASTING SYSTEM. There would never be another missed opportunity to reach every creature with the Gospel.
