(Part 4)
6. Have a heart that loves souls
He is tortured within when he sees an unsaved soul. His love for souls is extreme, even willing to give up his life for the sheep. He is willing to lose the world to save the soul. Paul sees preaching the Gospel as repayment of a debt. He said: “Woe to me if I do not preach the Gospel.” He even used his hands to make tents to supply the needs of his co-workers in order to repay the debts of the Gospel.
7. Hold high the Gospel of the Cross
Many people take the Gospel lightly and think that it is rather basic and inconsequential, and build their Tower of Babel instead with philosophy, the rudiments of the world, tradition and the law. The Gospel of the Cross is the great power of God, and only by lifting the Cross high can one draw the multitudes to the Lord.
