LESSON

                                                                                 

Disciple:  Will you please share another simple, effective way to talk to people about joining my 12 for Jesus family?

Servant:  Of course. First tell me what you’ve learned so far about talking to people about 12 for Jesus.

 

D:  Always get permission by first asking, “May I ask you a question?”

S:  Right.  Is it working for you?

 

D:  Yes, very well.  It opens the door.  All my Christian friends have said, “Sure”.

S:  What have you said next?

 

D:  Asked either, “How many disciples have you made for Jesus?” or “Have you heard about 12 for Jesus?” or “Do you attend a Bible study?”

S:  Have those simple questions worked?

 

D:  Yes.

S:  How many people have said they want to be part of your 12 for Jesus family?

 

D:   So far, the number of people who have expressed an interest total ____.

S:  Good.  Here’s another easy way to reach people for your 12.  It’s based on our memory verse for this week, the famous John 3:16.

 

D:  I’ve already memorized it.

S:  Good.  After asking your prospect, “May I ask you a question?” look them straight in the eyes and sincerely ask, “Why should Jesus let you into Heaven?”

 

D:  Good question. That’ll make people think.   What do people usually answer?

S:  About 80% of people give an incorrect answer like, “I’m a good person.”

 

S:  How do I answer them?

D:  Say, “According to the Bible, there’s a better answer.  Want to hear it?”

 

S:  When they say “Yes”, how do I reply?

D:  Simply say, “In John 3:16 it says: ‘God so loved the people of this world that He gave His only Son, so that everyone who has faith in Him will have eternal life.”

 

S:  What do I say next?

D: Ask, “You want to spend eternity in Heaven, don’t you?”

 

S:  When people say “Yes”, do I lead them in a short prayer of salvation?

D:  Yes, have them repeat something easy like this: “God, I have faith in Your Son, Jesus Christ.  Thank you that I will spend eternity in Heaven with You.”  Amen

 

S:  That is easy.  Then do I tell them about the 12 for Jesus training and invite them to join my 12?

D:  Yes, help them put their faith into action.

 

S:  I’ll practice this John 3:16 approach a couple times with my friend and then use it with others this week.  Thanks!

D:  You’re welcome.  Go get your 12.  Pray that the Holy Spirit will give you the boldness to simply say, “May I ask you a question?”
