Thirsting Souls Bible Teaching

(1Th 2:1) “For yourselves, brethren, know our entrance in unto you, that it was not in vain:”  We are always looking for “results” when we give out the gospel. What are the results we are seeking? Rightly we are seeking the salvation of souls. Yet, that is not the only result of giving forth the gospel. There is the blessing of obedience upon ourselves. There is also the witness into this world of what God has done: light shining in darkness. And there is the witness that shall be called forth at the Great White Throne Judgment against those who chose darkness over light. The Word of God is always true: (Isa_55:11) “So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.”   We may not be around to see a positive result later on. Remember, we are sowing. The reaping may be someone else’s privilege.
