We glorify God by making disciples of all nations. ========== Connection Card https://istrouma.org/myinfo February 26, 2023 | Tim Keith 1 Corinthians 9:19-27 1 Corinthians 9:19-27 Although I am free from all and not anyone’s slave, I have made myself a slave to everyone, in order to win more people. To the Jews I became like a Jew, to win Jews; to those under the law, like one under the law — though I myself am not under the law — to win those under the law. To those who are without the law, like one without the law — though I am not without God’s law but under the law of Christ — to win those without the law. To the weak I became weak, in order to win the weak. I have become all things to all people, so that I may by every possible means save some. Now I do all this because of the gospel, so that I may share in the blessings. Don’t you know that the runners in a stadium all race, but only one receives the prize? Run in such a way to win the prize. Now everyone who competes exercises self-control in everything. They do it to receive a perishable crown, but we an imperishable crown. So I do not run like one who runs aimlessly or box like one beating the air. Instead, I discipline my body and bring it under strict control, so that after preaching to others, I myself will not be disqualified. INVITE (v. 19-22) INVEST (v. 23) INCREASE (v. 23) We INVITE everyone to INVEST everything to see the Kingdom of God INCREASE everywhere. ARE YOU IN?

Y no hay cosa creada que no sea manifiesta en su presencia; antes bien todas las cosas están desnudas y abiertas a los ojos de aquel a quien tenemos que dar cuenta. 2 Timoteo 3:16 Toda la Escritura es inspirada por Dios, y útil para enseñar, para redargüir, para corregir, para instruir en justicia, 1 Tesalonicenses 2:13 Por lo cual también nosotros sin cesar damos gracias a Dios, de que cuando recibisteis la palabra de Dios que oísteis de nosotros, la recibisteis no como palabra de hombres, sino según es en verdad, la palabra de Dios, la cual actúa en vosotros los creyentes. S. Mateo 24:35 El cielo y la tierra pasarán, pero mis palabras no pasarán. 1. La Palabra de Dios es VIVA 2. La Palabra de Dios es EFICAZ 3. La Palabra de Dios es CORTANTE 4.

INVEST: Read The New Testament New Testament Info: 7,957 verses 27 books 9 authors 50 years Greek language Central theme: Jesus the Messiah Hebrews 4:11-13 Let us, then, make every effort to enter that rest, so that no one will fall into the same pattern of disobedience. For the word of God is living and effective and sharper than any double-edged sword, penetrating as far as the separation of soul and spirit, joints and marrow. It is able to judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart. No creature is hidden from him, but all things are naked and exposed to the eyes of him to whom we must give an account. 1. God's Word Brings Dead Sinners to Life 1 Peter 1:23 “for you have been born again not of seed which is perishable but imperishable, that is, through the living and enduring word of God.” John 20:31 “these [signs] have been written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing you may have life in His name.” 2. God's Word Brings Daily, Renewed Life to God’s People Convicts me Hebrews 4:12 Guides me Psalm 119:105 Refines me Jeremiah 23:29 Washes away my impurities Ephesians 5:26 Nourishes me 1 Peter 2:2 God’s Word “heals most completely, where it wounds most deeply” -- J. B. Lightfoot 1 John 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

On the contrary, whoever wants to become great among you will be your servant, and whoever wants to be first among you will be a slave to all. For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.” They came to Jericho. And as he was leaving Jericho with his disciples and a large crowd, Bartimaeus (the son of Timaeus), a blind beggar, was sitting by the road. When he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!” Many warned him to keep quiet, but he was crying out all the more, “Have mercy on me, Son of David!” Jesus stopped and said, “Call him.” So they called the blind man and said to him, “Have courage! Get up; he’s calling for you.” He threw off his coat, jumped up, and came to Jesus. Then Jesus answered him, “What do you want me to do for you?” “Rabboni,” the blind man said to him, “I want to see.” Jesus said to him, “Go, your faith has saved you.” Immediately he could see and began to follow Jesus on the road. Jesus was Available to Serve We Get Too Busy We Lie to Ourselves Ecclesiastes 11:4 One who watches the wind will not sow, and the one who looks at the clouds will not reap. We Chase the Wrong Success Luke 16:13 No servant can serve two masters, since either he will hate one and love the other, or he will be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.” SHOW UP Hebrews 10:24-25 And let us consider one another in order to provoke love and good works, not neglecting to gather together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging each other, and all the more as you see the day approaching. SERVE OTHERS Mark 10:45 For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.” 1 Peter 4:10-11 Just as each one has received a gift, use it to serve others, as good stewards of the varied grace of God. If anyone speaks, let it be as one who speaks God’s words; if anyone serves, let it be from the strength God provides, so that God may be glorified through Jesus Christ in everything. To him be the glory and the power forever and ever.

Adorar… juntos Hebreos 10:24-25 Y considerémonos unos a otros para estimularnos al amor y a las buenas obras; no dejando de congregarnos, como algunos tienen por costumbre, sino exhortándonos; y tanto más, cuanto veis que aquel día se acerca. 2. Servir… a los demás 1 Pedro 4:10 Cada uno según el don que ha recibido, minístrelo a los otros, como buenos administradores de la multiforme gracia de Dios. 3. Crecer … en Cristo 2 Timoteo 2:15 Procura con diligencia presentarte a Dios aprobado, como obrero que no tiene de qué avergonzarse, que usa bien la palabra de verdad. 10 razones para servir a Dios 1. Tiene un propósito de Salvación. 2. He sido dotado para servir. 3. Sirviendo demostrarás la realidad de tu fe. 4. Los obreros son pocos. 5. Los niños tienden a imitar lo que ven. 6. La comisión es grande. 7. Tenemos una mejor comprensión bíblica. 8. Las cosas anónimas son como susurrarle, “Te amo” en su oído. 9.Te va forjar amistades duraderas y valiosas. 10.

Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is abundant, but the workers are few. Therefore, pray to the Lord of the harvest to send out workers into his harvest.” 1 Corinthians 9:19-25 Although I am free from all and not anyone’s slave, I have made myself a slave to everyone, in order to win more people. To the Jews I became like a Jew, to win Jews; to those under the law, like one under the law — though I myself am not under the law — to win those under the law. To those who are without the law, like one without the law — though I am not without God’s law but under the law of Christ — to win those without the law. To the weak I became weak, in order to win the weak. I have become all things to all people, so that I may by every possible means save some. Now I do all this because of the gospel, so that I may share in the blessings. Don’t you know that the runners in a stadium all race, but only one receives the prize? Run in such a way to win the prize. Now everyone who competes exercises self-control in everything. They do it to receive a perishable crown, but we an imperishable crown. INVITE (v. 19-22) INVEST (v. 23) 1 Corinthians 9:23 Now I do all this because of the gospel, so that I may share in the blessings. INCREASE (v. 23) 1 Corinthians 9:23 Now I do all this because of the gospel, so that I may share in the blessings. Invite everyone to invest everything to see the Kingdom of God increase everywhere. Are You In? (v. 24-25) 1 Corinthians 9:24-25 Don’t you know that the runners in a stadium all race, but only one receives the prize? Run in such a way to win the prize. Now everyone who competes exercises self-control in everything. They do it to receive a perishable crown, but we an imperishable crown. Istrouma will INVITE and INVEST. God will bring the INCREASE.

Me he hecho a los judíos como judío, para ganar a los judíos; a los que están sujetos a la ley (aunque yo no esté sujeto a la ley) como sujeto a la ley, para ganar a los que están sujetos a la ley; a los que están sin ley, como si yo estuviera sin ley (no estando yo sin ley de Dios, sino bajo la ley de Cristo), para ganar a los que están sin ley. Me he hecho débil a los débiles, para ganar a los débiles; a todos me he hecho de todo, para que de todos modos salve a algunos. Y esto hago por causa del evangelio, para hacerme copartícipe de él. Pablo tenía una meta: ¡Usar todos los medios para salvar a algunos! ¿Debería ser mi meta? 1. Es una meta realista. 2. Es una meta digna. 3. Es una meta trascendental. 4. Es una meta extraordinaria.
