“Come and See…” – Pastor Martin Childs Jr., D. Min.

TEXT: JOHN 4:1-42

TITLE: “COME AND SEE…”

INTRODUCTION

  1. Jesus needed to go through Samaria
  2. Jesus initiates the invitation with the woman at the well
  3. Jesus ministered to the woman, and she brought the men of the city
  4. Where do I need to go?
  5. Who do I need to meet?
  6. What impact will it have?

JESUS’ MODEL

  1. Jesus met the woman where she was
  2. Jesus focused on a common interest
  3. Jesus created a thirst based upon those interests
  4. Jesus used the physical to explain the spiritual
  5. Jesus reveals the Christ

WHAT IMPACT WILL IT HAVE?

  1. The woman left her waterpot [Her priorities are redirected]
  2. “Come, see a Man…” [Physical Transformation]
  3. “Could this be the Christ?” [Spiritual Transformation]
  4. They believed because of the woman [Invitation to come]
  5. They urged Jesus to stay with them [Invitation to learn]
  6. “Now we believe, not because of what you said, for we ourselves have heard Him and we know that this is indeed the Christ, the Savior of the world.” [Invitation to Christ]

 

CHALLENGE FOR THE WEEK: THAT I WILL MEDITATE ON WHAT HAPPENED AFTER I “CAME AND SAW”, THEN INVITE ONE PERSON TO “COME AND SEE” JESUS"
