Urgent needs on the fourth day

Grasp the key points (Brother 1 Corinthians 15:58)

_ What does it mean to call us to always strive to do “the Lord’s work”?

God’s work has two contents:

1. Spread the gospel: Doing God’s work is to call everyone to repent and know God’s salvation

(2 Corinthians 5:1? 0) The Great Commission is still everything. The first task of a Christian.

2. Training disciples: To do God’s work is to find and entrust disciples who can faithfully teach others (2 Timothy 2:2). Mature (Col. 28) in order to fully know God and bear fruit (Col. 1: 9? 1 2)

2. What does “strive to do” mean?

1. Exceed: "Do more" means to always be full, to overflow, or even to double. It also implies that when

we are devoted and committed to doing the Lord's work, we ourselves will also be filled. Will prosper.

2. Transcendence: It means exceeding the requirements and exceeding the norms. This reminds us that we need to transcend more. It’s not just about actions. The renewal of our minds will inspire us to “do more of the Lord’s work.”

3. In what ways can we show that we will grow when we are doing the Lord’s work? How to seize the key points and "do more of the main work" in daily life?

As we do the work of the Lord, the depth of our lives and ministries is gained. The ways to grow include:

1. Be more dependent on God

2. Increase your faith by seeing God’s work

3. Be more obedient to the Lord

4. Become clearer about our life goals, values ??and priorities

5. Create lasting commitment and conviction

6. Enhance the ability to engage in multiple ministries< /p>

Ask members of the discipleship team to share how they can do more of the Lord’s work.

4. Please summarize your experience in a few short sentences.

Whatever you do, do it heartily, as working for the Lord, not for men, because you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as your reward. It is the Lord Christ whom you serve.

Colossians 3:23,24

The truth of resurrection is the foundation of Christian faith. Only when believers believe in the resurrection and hope for the resurrection can they truly be "firm, unshakable, always striving to do the Lord's work" (v. 58), "knowing" (v. 58) that their labor has eternal value in Christ.
