We Love the Souls of Everyone
“This is good, and it is pleasing in the sight of God our Savior, who desires all people to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth” (1 Timothy 2:3–4).
Because
we love the souls of men and want them to go to heaven, we preach the
gospel of Jesus Christ. Paul knew this burden and said, “I am under
obligation both to Greeks and to barbarians, both to the wise and to
the foolish. So I am eager to preach the gospel to you also who are
in Rome. For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of
God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also
to the Greek” (Romans 1:14–16).
Because
we love the souls of men, we are not afraid to speak out against sin.
We know that passions of the flesh “wage war against the soul” (1
Peter 2:11).
Because
we love the souls of men, we preach the need to follow Jesus. Jesus
is the way, the truth, and the life. “No one comes to the Father
except through me” (John 14:6).
Because
we love the souls of men, we point people to what is best. The Lord
Jesus came to bring us an abundant life (John 10:10). His yoke is
easy, and His burden is light (Matthew 11:28-30). He is the
Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace
(Isaiah 9:6). He is “our wisdom and our righteousness and
sanctification and redemption” (1 Corinthians 1:30). We can do no
better than to preach Jesus and Him crucified to every soul in every
place who will hear.
