An Old Fashioned Missions Sermon
Romans 10:11-17
We have the same old message to share.
John 3:16God so loved the world that He gaveHis one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but
have eternal life.
We have the same old missionto accomplish.
Matthew 28:19-20Go and make disciples of all
nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them
to obey everythingI have commanded you.
Discipling Process
Helping seekers become believers
Helping believers become followers
Helping followers becoming ministers
Helping ministers becomementors or equippers.
We have the same old motivationto get the job done.
Acts 1:8You will receive power
when the Holy Spirit comes on you;and you will be my witnesses
in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the
earth.
The Same Old PromisesRomans 10:11-13
There’s No in Jesus
Anyone who trusts in himwill never be put to shame.
Disappointment
2 Corinthians 5:17If anyone is in Christ,
he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!
There’s No Between Races
There is no difference betweenJew and Gentile--
the same Lord is Lord of alland richly blesses all who call on him.
Discrimination
Genesis 12:3I will bless those who bless you,
and whoever curses you I will curse;and all peoples on earth
will be blessed through you.
Galatians 3:28There is neither Jew nor Greek,slave nor free, male nor female,
for you are all one in Christ Jesus.
Colossians 3:11Here there is no Greek or Jew, circumcised or uncircumcised,
barbarian, Scythian, slave or free,but Christ is all, and is in all.
Ephesians 2:1-7is every believer’s testimony
The 10/40 Window Map
Acts 1:8You will receive power when the
Holy Spirit comes on you;and you will be my witnesses
in Jerusalem, and in all Judeaand Samaria,
and to the ends of the earth.
There’s No of Successes
Everyone who calls on the nameof the Lord will be saved.
Doubt
1 Corinthians 3:5-9What, after all, is Apollos?
And what is Paul? Only servants,through whom you came to
believe--as the Lord has assigned
to each his task.I planted the seed, Apollos watered
it, but God made it grow.
So neither he who plantsnor he who waters is anything,
but only God, who makes things grow. The man who plantsand the man who waters
have one purpose,and each will be rewardedaccording to his own labor.
For we are God's fellow workers;you are God's field, God's building.
Mark 4:20Others, like seed sown on good soil,
hear the word, accept it,and produce a crop--thirty, sixty or even
a hundred times what was sown.
Current progress of the Gospel from Witness Essentials by Dan Meyer
In 1900 Korea had no Protestant church.
Today, there are over 7,000 churches
in just the city of Seoul, South Korea.
At the end of the 19th century,the southern portion of Africawas only 3 percent Christian.
Today, 63 percent of the populationis Christian, while membership
in the churches in Africa is increasing
by 34,000 people per day.
In India, 14 millionof the 140 million membersof the "untouchable" castehave become Christians.
More people in the Islamic worldhave come to Christ in the last 25
years than in the entire historyof Christian missions.
In Islamic Indonesia,the percentage of Christians is
now so high (around 15 percent)that the Muslim governmentwill no longer print statistics.
In China, it is estimatedthat there are now more
self-avowed disciples of Jesusthan members of the Communist
party.Even the most conservative
estimates suggest that China will soon have
more Christians than any country.
Across the planet, followers of Jesusare increasing by more than
eighty thousand per day.
510 new churches form every day.

We’re not losing, we’re were winning!
Revelation 7:9-12I looked and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing
before the throne and in front of the Lamb. They were wearing white
robes and were holding palm branches in their hands. And they
cried out in a loud voice: "Salvation belongs to our God, who sits on the
throne, and to the Lamb.”
All the angels were standing around the throne and around the elders
and the four living creatures. They fell down on their faces before the throne and worshiped God, saying:
"Amen! Praise and glory and wisdom and thanks and honor and power and strength be to our God
for ever and ever. Amen!"
The Same Old PlanRomans 10:14-15
You’ve Got to have
How can they believe in the oneof whom they have not heard?And how can they hear without someone preaching to them?
Preachers
Matthew 9:37-38He said to his disciples,“The harvest is plentifulbut the workers are few.
Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore,
to send out workersinto his harvest field."
You’ve Got to have
How can they preachunless they are sent?
Senders
Every Christian has been calledto be a witness but not all
have been called to bepreachers or missionaries.
Ephesians 4:11He…gave some to be apostles,
some to be prophets,some to be evangelists,
and some to be pastors and teachers,
Financial Support
Prayer Support
Moral Support
Idea:Maybe we should commission
our missionarieswith a foot washing ceremony
and provide pedicureswhen they return.
Philippians 2:29-30Welcome him in the Lord with great
joy, and honor men like him,because he almost diedfor the work of Christ,
risking his life to make upfor the help you could not give me.
Every arrow needs a bow.
Trusting The Same Old PowerRomans 10:16-17
Which Resides in God’s
”I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for
the salvation of everyone who believes.” Romans 1:16
Word
Jeremiah 23:29"Is not My word like fire,"
declares the LORD,"and like a hammer
that breaks a rock in pieces?
John 6:63The words I have spoken to you are
spirit and they are life.
Which is Released through Man’s
Faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is
heard through the word of Christ.
Faith
Hebrews 4:2We also have had the gospel
preached to us, just as they did; but the message they heard was of no value to them, because those who heard did not combine it with faith.
Hebrews 11:6Without faith it is impossible to
please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those
who earnestly seek him.
Every arrow needs a bow.
