Reading: Handling Objections to Vocal Witnessing: Actions

TO MEMORIZE THIS WEEK:

John 5:24,  "Very truly I tell you, whoever hears My word and believes Him who sent Me has eternal life and will not be judged but has crossed over from death to life.”

SPEAKING WITH OUR SAVIOR:

You're a good example for us, Jesus.  You were so familiar with the Bible and You quoted it so effectively.  As a human being I know You had to learn it verse by verse just like I do.  You said we'd live in this world and we do.  But I know I can't fight the way this world does.  Only Your divine Word will break down the defenses in people's hearts.  I pledge to become familiar with It.

ACTION THIS WEEK:

One fear we have in approaching others with the incredible offer of forgiveness is that we feel we don't know enough.  What has been your attitude--and your record--in approaching the verses so far suggested to learn?  How many verses have you memorized this past month/year?  And what is your plan for knowing the Bible better?  Write down your plan to get to know the Bible better.  Then write down your plan to memorize verses.  Then write down how you will do it.  Then do it.

MENTOR:

Is there an area of your life where you are disobeying something found in the Bible?  Can you pray together about it to overcome it?
