A Place For Everyone – The Lost Cause

• Why would Jesus so attracted to people who are nothing like Him? (The UnGodly, the UnHoly, the Unrighteous)
• Why would people who are nothing like Him are attracted to Jesus? When He spoke people from all background would gather and listen.
• Why people that are supposed be are most like Him are put off by Jesus? What’s going on there?

If you read the new testament – The Local church supposed to be the hands and feet and eye to Jesus… so when we gather together when the Christian gather ideally is as close as it gets as if the people are with the person of Jesus when they are with us.

Yet for some reason, The church don’t have the same effect on people as a  congregation as Jesus did on earth. It is not an indictment on me or you but it’s just a cold hard fact. Most Local CHURCHES – The unholy – the unrighteous Don’t really LIKE the LOCAL CHURCHES. Don’t REALLY WANNA COME and DON’ T REALLY WANT TO BE A PART OF THAT.

Do you want to know Why I’m here?

“For the Son of Man came to seek and save those who are lost.” Luke 19:10

If we are saved today, we used to be lost, we used to be the prodigal sons.

Will we be personally engaged with our Heavenly father in His search, in His compassion & desire with the disconnected people (the Lost)?

Unless there is a church somewhere that would become so attractive to the Unchurched, Ungodly, Unrighteous, Broken Relationship that Jesus would come to that church and see wow – the people that I care for they are all here – together with MY people. Soon  these outsiders will become my family.

Here are 3 things that we can do together:

1. Pray for that a friend everyday – they will cross the line of faith. From Lost  – to be found
2. Share the Gospel: Just tell them that Jesus is Lord, that He loves them and has died for them to forgive them of their sins so they can have a living relationship with Him and have eternal life
3. Invite them here

1 Corinthians 1:21 (NLT) 21 Since God in his wisdom saw to it that the world would never know him through human wisdom, he has used our foolish preaching to save those who believe.
