Motivation To Preach...

A good man, Matt Weymeyer, posted these Biblical Motivations to Preach the Gospel and I so enjoyed pondering them I wanted to have them here for your enjoyment...

1. A Jealous Delight in God’s Glory (Acts 17:16-17)
2. A Heart of Compassion for Lost Souls (Matt 9:35-38)
3. A Sober Awareness of the Need for Evangelism (Rom 10:14-15)
4. A Profound Appreciation for the High Calling (2 Cor 5:18-20)
5. An Irrepressible Excitement about Your Own Salvation (Matt 9:27-31)
6. An Abiding Confidence in the Sovereignty of God (Acts 18:10)
7. A Simple Desire to Obey the Great Commission (Matt 28:18-20)
