Evangelism Requires Motivation
• Love of God– Romans 3:23 – For all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God– Romans 6:23 – For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is
eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord– John 3:16 – For God so loved
• Have we experienced "the love of the Father" in our lives?– If so, how can we not be moved (motivated) to want to share it with
others?
• Am I Ashamed? (Hide it under a bushel – NO!)– I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ … (Romans 1:16)– We can’t be a secret disciple like Joseph of Arimathea (John 19:38)– We must “confess” -- Romans 10:9 (salvation), Luke 12:8 (before men)

• Compassion for lost souls (Mt 9:35-36)
– Think of what the Apostles (and others) gave up • Travel• Prison• Ship wreck• Etc…
• Do I care?– We have the “Good News” (cure for a terminal condition)
• I Can’t Show Partiality– James 2, Luke 8:5-ff

• Does it burn within me– Jer. 20:9– Ps. 39:1-3– Acts 17:16– Acts 18:5– 1 Co. 9:14-17
• Reminder as to what we should preach
Ro 1:16 ¶ For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek.

What Barriers Do We Face?
• We May Lake Boldness–Acts 4:23-ff–What about those is Acts 8:4?–What about Christians in hard times?
• We May Lack Knowledge of God’s Word–2 Tim 2:15, 24–2 Tim 3:16-17
