Introduction
And by what account do I have the pleasure of this call
Sarcasm
 
Tonight we are looking at how we can effectively share our faith.
How we can effectively cold call, on behalf of the Kingdom of God
Tonight we will uncover an intriguing story… a story where a person like you and I leaves a thriving and powerful ministry to share the gospel with just one man.
The message tonight is called, into the zone, in its final sermon in a four-week series called walk across the room.
* 1.
The greatest Walks in History – God spanned the unverse through
 
* 2. Your Story, Warts and all – Power of sharing who we really are
* 3. Building Bridges for God – Ways to connect
 
!!!
Over the next 15 or so minutes I hope we can work through the questions of
 
* How do I tell people about Jesus
* How do I get over that fear?
* Will I look stupid
* Will my friends diwon me
* How do I move from the comfort zone to the Action Zone
!! Let Us Pray
Heavenly father
Open our hearts and minds
Convict us – move amongst us tonite
Guide every word~/ every syllable~/ every story as we eagerly await a great revelation of you through the spoken word
 
! Setting the Scene
!! Phillip Story – Paint Picture
!!! Phillip~/Phillip
* I gotta go to the desert
* What was he leaving?
* WHY – It was not about him.
He knew something bigger was going down.
!! Acts – Outlined
* Ascension of Jesus – Acts 1
* Church rapidly expands at Pentecost (over 3,000)– Acts 2:41
* Apostles Keep preaching and more believe – Acts 3
* Church is scattered and starting to be persectuted
 
!! Have to ask ourselves the questions
* Why did he go?
* Why did he leave a fruitful ministry – particularly the samaratins
* Why did he trounce al they way into the desert
 
Because we see through his actions – not necessarily his words a blind obedidence, you know the type that doesn’t even ask WHY?
Yep – I’ll go
\\ !! Vanessa Williams Approach – Save the best for last
 
 
!
Compulsion through Obedience
!! Do I really have to???
 
!!! *Phillip had a drive that empowered him to walk out that way and leave it all behind*
!!! *Define Compelled* – A burning hunger, he was driven.
!!!
You would have to be to walk all the way out into the desert to wait for a guy you’ve never met and to await further instructions from a God you can’t see.
*(a) Problem: Sometimes our compulsion is not for the right reason*
 
The compulsion to preach a portion of the evidence by simply planning our message of Jesus Christ.
We see with people that have the sensitivity of the *scriptural shotgun* firing of rounds of :
 
Jesus loves you Jesus loves you Jesus loves you,
 
or randomly sending description versus that of no relevance to the person tunnel engage tem
 
*as a a side note : Verse 35:*
            Then Phillip opened his mouth and began at this scripture: *Listen then Talk*
           
We think we always have to be making *pre-emptive strikes* with *Words of Mass desctruction*
!!  
!! Magic Eye example –
What is this?
Can anyone so the picture?
\\ !! Philips example
 
Dropped falaffel
!!! 30 Then Philip ran up to the chariot and heard the man reading Isaiah the prophet.
“Do you understand what you are reading?”
Philip asked.
!!! 31 “How can I,” he said, “unless someone explains it to me?”
So he invited Philip to come up and sit with him.
[1]
 (do you see the picture in the magic eye)
 
Like the magic eye example they could stare at this for ever UNLESS we are compelled to intervene by coming along side people and saying… that sounds interesting…
what do you mean.
*Our respsonsibility is not to describe the experience but help them find the answer.*
!! Video Store example –
 
 
 
!! See from my example: I have to admit I am not the best at this
 
 
*Why we share the gospel – significance of eternity*
!!! My compulsion to share the gospel should be born out of a sense of obligation (like taking out the trash) but rather a recognition that the message of Eternity is to precious to be left up to the sides of harbour bridges and chalked pathways as a means to
!!!  
!!! It’s not good enough to say – oh they get it.
They don’t!
 
 
\\  
!! Pause: Damo situation.
How come you never shared Jesus with me.
You were the only Christian
!!  
! Step 3. Compulsion - Courage
!!!! a)    I did not have Courage through faith in who Jesus really is
 
!!
I did’n realize that God Was a
 
!!!! b)    Personal God – Within me
!!!! c)     Peripheral God – Around me
 
*a) Boils down to the issue of: do I believe everything Jesus Christ is right or is it just some sort of moral guideline*
* *
*Matthew 16:13-17*
13 When Jesus came to the region of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, “Who do people say the Son of Man is?”
 
14 They replied, “Some say John the Baptist; others say Elijah; and still others, Jeremiah or one of the prophets.”
15 “But what about you?” he asked.
*“Who do you say I am?”*
 
16 Simon Peter answered, “*You are the Christ,**the Son of the living God.”*
 
17 Jesus replied, “Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah, for this was not revealed to you by man, but by my Father in heaven.

!! Post-Modern World – Who do they say jesus is.
Spiritual Leader – Sorta like Buddah
Brainwasher
A Man  - Not God
A Good Guy -
 
We get so knocked around by the post-modern mindset: *If that’s OK for you then it’s true*
