I feel a very strong burden in my spirit to wake the body of Christ in general and all members of this church in particular to our Christian duty of soul winning! For some time now this primary duty and calling of Christians to go into the entire world and preach the gospel to every creature has been relegated to the background. We are living our Christian lives as if we are no longer accountable to any God and that there is no more  hell nor heaven. If we believe there is a real fire called the lake of fire we will with much trembling do God’s work by warning humanity to turn to God.
 We are treating God like a grocery store where everybody goes to order for the goods of life; shoes, cars, marriages, children, breakthroughs etc.Christians are now living as if we will live here forever and all that now matters is how to make it! The bible says we are pilgrims and let’s pass our sojourning here in fear and trembling. I came to call everyone back to work. Jesus gave us work; go ye into the entire world. ‘Christians are now sitting ye!’

The first president of the Republic of Ghana declared on the attainment of Ghana’s independence that ‘the independence of Ghana is meaningless unless it is linked to the total liberation of the African continent’. In the same way I am declaring to you all that your Christian life is meaningless unless it is linked to the salvation of another soul for Jesus!

In these teachings I will share with you:

1. Because Jesus commanded It.  (Matthew 28:18-20)
 It is not an option it is a command we have no choice. He said if ye love me do my commandments (John 14:15). My dear sister/brother do you really love Jesus, then show it by shamelessly and fearlessly going out there on the streets, ghettoes, house to house, on the trains, wherever there are human beings and preach Christ unto them so as to win them for him!
Do you love him? Then do his command!

2. Because Of the Reality of the Lake Of Fire.  (Revelations.20:12-15)
‘‘And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.
 And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works.
 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.
 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.’’
 The lake of fire is very real and because of this truth we must preach to our friends and       family so they can escape it because it was prepared for the devil and his demons. (Matthew 25:21)

3. Because of the value of the human soul. (Mark 8:36).
The human soul is very expensive. Only the blood of Christ can purchase it.

4. Because it is the wisest thing to do. (Proverbs 11:30) ‘He that wins souls is wise’! Can I have some wise men and women here?!

5. Because God will judge us if we fail to warn humanity.
     (Ezekiel 3:18).      (Romans 14:12)

6. Because we will be rewarded By God. (Daniel 12:3, I Peter 5:4, II Timothy 4:7-8)

7. Because Jesus is coming back again. (John 14:1-3)

Receive grace to obey and fulfil this great commission.

Love,

Rev.James Hansen-Sackey
