Sprit moves you, per-

haps God wants to see

how much the Church

that Jesus built by

shedding His blood on

the Cross of Calvary,

means to you. So the

question again is put

to you, “what does

Jesus mean to us?”

Will we be counted

among the faithful

when we are called

into account on that

Day? May God for-

give us when we are

not as faithful and

may He bless us when

we answer the call to

be faithful.

“What does Jesus

mean to us?” Normally

I do not start any of

my writings with a

question. But the ques-

tion is one of signifi-

cance. Beloved if Je-

sus is our “all in all”

then wouldn’t it stand

to reason that we

should give back to

Him anything that He

would ask? Some

would say that Jesus is

everything but when it

comes to giving some-

thing up in order to

have a better walk

with Him, especially if

it might make us un-

comfortable, we begin

to back peddle and

think that surely Jesus

would not ask that of

me! Brothers and Sis-

ters have you consid-

ered; Maybe you say,

“I don’t have to come

to Church to worship

Jesus!” But Jesus said

“that they will know

you are mine if you

show love one to an-

other”. (John 13:35) It

is hard to love some-

one whom you have

not seen or been

around them. The next

time Jesus asks you to

give and the Holy

According to evangelism

statistics : (Street Level Evangelism by Michael Parrott)

• Ninety-five percent of all

Christians have never won a

soul to Christ.

•

Eighty percent of all Christians

do not consistently witness for

Christ.

•

Less than two percent are in-

volved in the ministry of evan-

gelism.

•

Seventy-one percent do not

give toward the financing of the

great Commission.

Here at Cornerstone, we want each

member to be equipped to be able to

effectively share their faith. Join us

beginning

Sunday, June 10th at 6 p.m.

for the 8 week Way of the Master Evan-

gelism Course.

Summer Evangelism Course The Way of the Master, Basic Train-

ing Course is specially formatted to

train believers in a group setting to

simply and confidently share the gos-

pel with family, friends, and strangers.

These lessons will teach you to over-

come your fears by using a proven,

powerfully effective way to make the

gospel make sense. You won't be at a

loss for words. You don't need to be

an expert in apologetics.

This will be a hands on, intensive,

out in the community course!

Reaching the Lost by Pastor Williams

This quarter I beseech all

of us to pray for the out-reach of our own lives into the lives of others. Are you

making a difference in the kingdom of God? I am not

asking if you have come to church or if you have given your tithe but rather what

have you done for the glory of the Lord Jesus Christ

this past year? Our Bible gives us a calling, a com-mission, and a command to

go forth and make disciples for God. Will you hear that

call or be content to say that it is for someone else? "The one concern of the dev-

il is to keep Christians from

praying. He fears nothing

from prayerless studies,

prayerless work, and prayer-

less religion. He laughs at

our toil, mocks at our wis-

dom, but trembles when we

pray." Samuel Chadwick

Will you follow the com-

mission of the Lord or be resigned to say that it is not for me? "We must feel toward people

as a father toward his chil-

dren; yea, the most tender

love of a mother must not

surpass ours. We must even

travail in birth, till Christ be

formed in them. They should

see that we care for no out-

ward thing, neither liberty,

nor honor, nor life, in com-

parison to their salvation...

When the people see that

you truly love them, they

will hear anything from

you...Oh therefore, see that

you feel a tender love for

people in your hearts, and let

them perceive it in your

speech and conduct. Let

them see that you spend and

are spent for their sakes."

Richard Baxter

Will you obey the com-mand of the Lord Jesus

who died that you might have life eternal or be con-tent to settle for apathy in

your walk with Him? There is a place where there is a dreadful prayer-meeting every day, and every hour in the day; a prayer-

meeting where all the at-tendants pray,—not mere-ly one, but all; and they pray, too, with sighs, and groans, and tears; and yet they are never heard. That prayer-meeting is in hell. There is a begging meeting there, indeed. Oh, that there were on earth half the prayer there will be there! Oh, that the tears shed in eternity had but been shed in time! Oh, that the agony that the lost ones now feel had but been felt before-hand! Oh, that they had repented ere their life was ended! Oh, that their hearts had been made tender before the terrible fire of judg-ment had melted them! - Charles Spurgeon Please consider what the Lord would have you do

for Him this quarter.
