Sermon Transcript (Auto-Transcribed by YouTube)
I'm looking forward to today's message. This has been one of those ones. Sometimes there's messages, they're just fun to study, they're fun to go through.
This one wasn't as fun. This one was more like, you gotta shape up, big guy.
And I hope that it will be an encouragement to you in your walk with the Lord, and that it will be a challenge to you, that we would seek to follow the Lord in what we're gonna talk about today.
We've been going through a series in John 1-4 called The Word Became Flesh, and we've been looking at the gospel, the eyewitness testimony of John the Apostle, who was one of Jesus' followers, who had walked with him during his earthly ministry,
spent time with him, heard his messages and his teachings, and who for decades afterwards, helped lead in churches and preach and plant churches and write letters to churches. He was, this particular gospel was the last one written of four.
So there's Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. John is the last written of the gospels. And he says that the reason that he wrote it was so that you would know that Jesus is God and that you would believe in him as your Savior.
This was written from a man that over the course of about four or five decades, saw many people that he had walked alongside with Jesus killed for their faith. He saw men that were also crucified. He saw people that were stoned.
His own brother was killed because of his preaching in Jesus.
And so here, there's about, you know, 80, 90 year old man that as he's telling the story of Jesus to the churches and people that he's interacting with, he's letting them know this was not just like some hoax, like we have given our entire lives and
health and everything for the sake of Jesus. And this is why. And he's going to challenge us today through an account of Jesus of a time when him and the other disciples kind of dropped the ball a little bit.
And we'll see where they did that, what Jesus' response was, how he treated them and what the call is for us today. The title of today's sermon is Let's Talk About Jesus.
Last week, we saw the power and impact of a personal encounter with Jesus, and we ended with verses 27 through 30, where the woman that encountered Jesus went into the town of Sychar and shared with everyone about the Messiah, God's chosen Savior,
that she had found. Today, we're going to discover what happened with those townspeople that she went and told, where Jesus' disciples have been, and what this 2,000 year old story has to do with our interactions with people, the rest of today and
the rest of this week. We're going to start off today by reading verses 39 through 42. Now, many Samaritans from that town believed in him because of what the woman said when she testified, He told me everything I ever did.
So, when the Samaritans came to him, they asked him to stay with them, and he stayed there 2 days.
Many more believed because of what he said, and they told the woman, we no longer believe because of what you said since we have heard for ourselves and know that this is really the Savior of the world.
As in John 4, God is constantly working in the hearts and lives of people around the world so that they are ready to accept him. He could be working in your kid's life, in your co-worker's heart, or in your neighbor's circumstances.
The question for us today is, are we working on anyone to share the gospel with them and lead them to accept Christ?
Through this passage of scripture today, I want to challenge you and I to be personally involved with the evangelistic work God is doing in the lives of those around you.
Be personally involved with the evangelistic work that God is doing in the lives of those around you. Let's pray.
Lord, today we ask for forgiveness, for not valuing you enough to want to share you with others, for valuing the opinions of others more than we value their souls.
We ask that through your word, we would see what you are doing in the world you've created and in the hearts of those you love, and that we would have a desire to join you in that life giving work.
If there's someone here today that does not know you as savior, I ask that this passage would show them how much you love them and that they would give their life to you today as a result.
We love you God, and we pray all of this in the name of the only savior, Jesus. Amen. First today, we're gonna see the truth that God works in people's hearts to save them.
We can see this in verses 27 through 30. Verse 27, just then his disciples arrived, and they were amazed that he was talking with a woman. This would not have been common during the first century in Israel.
Yet no one said, what do you want? Or why are you talking with her? Then the woman left her water jar, went into town and told the people, come see a man who told me everything I ever did.
Could this be the Messiah? They left the town and made their way to him. Here, as this woman, she's going, she's embarking, the disciples get back from town, where they had just bought some food.
Jesus hadn't gone into town with them. He had rested at the well, because as we learned last week, he was tired, thirsty and hungry. Normally not a great combination for when you're going to witness to someone.
But here, because he was the perfect sinless son of God, it worked out great. What I find so encouraging from this interaction is that the disciples didn't have to do anything for this woman to spark a revival.
It was the work of Jesus that accomplished that. If the salvation of the world was reliant on our abilities or our prowess or our success, then I would despair for the billions of souls that we would be unable to communicate with or to persuade.
However, since salvation is from the Lord, from the beginning to the end, we can realize that, as Jesus says in John 6 37, everyone that the Father has given Jesus will come to him.
But since Jesus isn't physically here on earth anymore to sit by some different well sides, how does he save his people? How is God's work accomplished in salvation? First, I want us to see that God convicts the hearts of mankind about their sins.
Just as Jesus, as we learned last week, just as he convicted the heart of the woman at the well by telling her that he knew that she was living with a man that she was not married to, so the Holy Spirit convicts hearts today.
John 16 tells us that the Holy Spirit will convict the world about sin, righteousness, and judgment.
About sin because they're not believing in Jesus, about righteousness because they know that there is right that they should be doing or should be thinking, and about judgment because they know that there is a punishment for wrong.
It doesn't take long to convince most people of these essential facts, and it's because God is working on hearts.
Everyone knows that they are imperfect, or at least if you ask their spouse or their best friend, they will tell you all the ways in which the person is imperfect.
People know that there is absolute good, and that justice is something we all know innately is coming. You can hear people say, well, he got what was coming to him, or you can think about the concept of karma.
Everyone knows there is justice that is coming. Well, where does that knowledge of our imperfection, of good and evil, of a standard of right that we don't attain and judgment, where does that all come from?
It comes because the Holy Spirit is working to convict the hearts of mankind.
Certainly, you today as believers, if you are a believer in Jesus today, certainly, you know that, we should be cognizant of that, but it's also happening in the lives of those that you're interacting with, in the lives of those that you are
witnessing to. So realize that God is working in hearts. Secondly, God regenerates the dead hearts of sinners in salvation. God's not just inwardly letting some people know some truth.
Ephesians 2 and verse 4 tells us that before Jesus, we were spiritually dead in our trespasses. Scripture tells us that before salvation, we were enslaved to sin, blinded by Satan, so that we won't see the gospel.
We were cursed, we were alienated from God, we were the enemies of God, we were in debt to sin with a payment of our own eternal deaths awaiting us after this life.
But God, who is rich and mercy, because of his great love that he had for us, made us alive with Christ, even though we were dead in trespasses. You are saved by grace, is what Ephesians chapter two tells us.
And Titus chapter three in verses four and five says, when the kindness of God, our savior, and his love for mankind appeared, he saved us, not by works of righteousness that we have done, but according to his mercy, he saved us through the washing
of regeneration and renewal by the Holy Spirit. Without God's intervention, none of us would be saved. Romans chapter three tells us that there is no one who understands, there is no one who seeks after God.
Where this dives into your life number one is that you didn't save yourself, so be humble and be thankful. You are not a Christian today because you're just brighter and smarter than other people.
If you are saved today, it is because of the work of Jesus, not through any work of your own.
Secondly, those that haven't accepted the Lord yet in your life, it's not that they're just too stubborn or too uninformed or that you aren't persuasive enough.
They are spiritually unable to answer the call of Jesus without God's divine intervention. So pray that their eyes would be open, give the gospel to them, love like Jesus and have patience with others.
I told our basic beliefs class, one of my professors in college, Jim Shetler, actually the pastor of my pastor growing up. He got saved at like 17, 18 years old. He tells the story of how long his hair was.
He was full hippie back in the day. And after he got saved, he tried sharing the gospel with his family. And he shared the gospel with his dad for 25 years before his dad accepted Jesus.
And I told the class, imagine what would have happened if Dr.
Shetler had given up after two years, or what would have happened if he had given up after 15 years, or after 24 years, but because of a life that was consistently saying, okay, it's not that I just have to like persuade him, it's when God opens
their eyes, I'm just going to keep on giving the gospel. I need to be faithful to obey to give the gospel. The results are obviously up to the Lord.
So as we're saying this, if God is working in the hearts of people to be saved, if he's convicting them, if he's regenerating them, then why should we personally give the gospel?
It's simple, it's because number two today, God works to save through his people. We can see this in verses 31 through 38. Verse 31, in the meantime, the disciples kept urging him, saying, Rabbi, eat something.
If you'll remember, thirsty, tired, hungry, say, eat something. 32, but he said, I have food to eat that you don't know about.
Now, as we've been going through John 1-4, how many times has Jesus been talking about something spiritually and people get confused and they think he's talking physically. This happened with the wine at the wedding.
This happened with the being born again and that new birth. This happened with the temple, all of that. Jesus here is telling them a super important truth that they are missing.
There is something more satisfying to the person walking with God than even their food. What in the world could that be? Jesus says, I have food to eat that you don't know about.
Jesus, what is this? What is more nourishing than food? The disciples said to one another, could someone have brought him something to eat?
My food, verse 34, is to do the will of him who sent me and to finish his work, Jesus told them. Don't you say there are still four months and then comes the harvest? Listen to what I'm telling you.
Open your eyes and look at the fields because they are ready for harvest. The reaper is already receiving pay and gathering fruit for eternal life so that the sower and reaper can rejoice together. For in this case, the same is true.
One sows and another reaps. I sent you to reap what you didn't labor for. Others have labored and you have benefited from their labor.
In so many words, Jesus is saying this. I sent you guys into the city so that you could share me with the people. All of these people, their hearts are ready.
They're ready to respond to a gospel call. He says, I sent you to reap, but this woman that was not traveling with Jesus, a person that was living in immorality, but as soon as she knew who Jesus was, it prompted her to go tell everybody.
But these individuals that walked and talked with Jesus every single day, they didn't go and tell everyone about Jesus. They came back and they didn't come back with even like one person. They came back just with food.
This was one of the things that got slapped me upside the head about this week was, how many times have I been focused on what I'm doing, focusing on the earthly, and I've not been focused on God's mission?
Is my food, is my sustenance, is what I live for to complete the work of God, to accomplish His will in my life? Or is it simply for me to go about my day as regular?
As Jesus here encourages the disciples, He says, you're about to reap and enjoy some of these benefits and the blessings from what other people are doing. He says, you know, Jesus here is the sower.
He's the one that gave the seed of the gospel, that then this woman is going, this is the Messiah, and she's going and she's telling everyone, and she's about to bring people back, that Jesus has sowed the seed of the gospel, and now all of these
disciples, they're going to get the chance to tell people about the ministry and work and person of Jesus. They're going to get to tell them about this kingdom of heaven that has now come.
Jesus says, you're going to enjoy the benefits of this, but I did send you to accomplish this work. He says, I'm not just doing this by myself, I am enabling this woman, I am enabling you all to go and share the good news.
Well, God is the source and initiator and enabler of salvation. He has called us to be his instruments in sharing the gospel with others. As ambassadors of Christ, we have a unique privilege and responsibility to proclaim his message.
And this is what the disciples had missed.
The woman at the well immediately left to go tell everyone in town about Jesus once she knew who he was, while the disciples who were just in town with all of those people who were going to come out and believe in Jesus came back with no one.
As he says, I sent you to reap what you didn't labor for, that is souls. Others have labored the woman and you have benefited from their labor. For us today, I want you to notice first that you are individually called to share the gospel with others.
Every believer has a personal calling to evangelism. It's why Paul would tell us that we are ambassadors for Christ. You are no longer just a citizen of the United States.
You are a citizen of the kingdom of heaven. And your goal in life ought to be, I'm going to represent and proclaim and talk about how great this kingdom and my king is.
We are called in Matthew 28 to go into all the world and make disciples of all nations. A disciple is someone that as these men here walked with Jesus, they heard from him, they learned from him.
And as they spent time with him, and as he told them about God's word and about the mysteries of the church and the kingdom, that then he said, I want you guys to go and exactly what I've done with you, I want you to pass that on to others.
Today, who are you bringing along in your life as a disciple? Who are you telling the truths that you have personally learned about God? If you've been saved, you know how to tell others.
Sometimes we think, man, I've got to have a degree or I've got to have, you know, a certificate or a diploma from some class before I can proclaim the gospel. If you know how to be saved, then you know exactly what to tell others.
What person can you plan this week to talk about Jesus and salvation with? God has sent you into towns and families and businesses. Who will you bring back with you to Jesus this week?
Let's get our eyes off of the temporal. Lord willing, as we move into a new neighborhood and we've got our neighbors around us, I want to not just focus on the physical.
I've got all this stuff that I need to do with my house, and I've got to make sure the lawns mode. I want to have a spiritual mindset that says, the neighbors that I have around me, God put me there for a reason. And so I need to share the gospel.
I need to invite them. I need to have Samantha bake them some cookies that then I can bring a gospel invitation, and that'll work in tandem. If I try and make the cookies, it will probably not end as well.
Who can you bring back with you to Jesus this week as you do your everyday items? Let's care about others, not just ourselves.
Secondly, not only are we individually called to share the gospel with others, but we receive eternal blessings in our evangelism.
This is what Jesus said, that there is, in verse 36, the reaper is already receiving pay and gathering fruit for eternal life so that we can rejoice together. There are these eternal blessings.
In John 15, in verse number 8, Jesus said, My Father is glorified by this, that you produce much fruit and prove to be my disciples. God's not just interested in how religious and how many like do's and don'ts you can put in your life.
He wants you to make more disciples. Certainly, we ought to have the fruit of the Spirit in our temperament and our words and our actions and how we treat others. But it should not just end with our actions.
Let our words make more Christians. Let us sow the seed of the gospel and produce fruit. As Paul and Silas and Timothy told the Thessalonica Church, he says, who is our hope or joy or crown of boasting in the presence of our Lord Jesus at his coming?
Is it not you? Indeed, you are our glory and joy. That there is an everlasting joy that we have as we share the gospel with others, as they receive Christ, as they walk with the Lord, that brings joy to us that we say, it didn't stop with me.
The ages and ages and generations of Christian after Christian that made a new Christian, that made a new Christian, that went all the way to you, that it continued, that that spiritual lineage will pass on. Amen.
Daniel chapter 12 and verse number three says, those who have insight will shine like the bright expanse of the heavens and those who lead many to righteousness will shine like the stars forever and ever.
Obedience to God is one of those spiritual blessings that we receive, an eternal blessing. That is, we give the gospel, we are obeying Christ's command. God does not say, if you can seal the deal, then you have obeyed, then you have succeeded.
Instead, if you are faithful to just say, hey, can I tell you about Jesus? Can I tell you about how I accepted the Lord? Hey, do you know if you were to die today, do you know where you would go?
Have you ever thought about your life as it relates to Jesus or the Bible? As you share Christ with others, the actual act of sharing is the obedience. And what a wonderful thing as we trust God and obey that there is blessing.
One of the things my parents said to me often grown up was, obedience brings blessing and disobedience brings conflict. Yes, I experienced that way too many times. Obedience to God is one of those blessings.
A new spiritual family member is one of those blessings that when... This is so cool in the life of the Apostle Paul, that he was one that was persecuting the church. He was very wrapped up in kind of the religious structure of his day.
He was persecuting, he was kidnapping, he was jailing people.
And then as soon as God got a hold of his heart, the same church that he was initially like disrupting and finding members of and bringing them to prison, then he was a part of that church. Then he was worshiping alongside of them.
Then they sent him out as a missionary. What a wonder that those that were enemies, God has through salvation made brothers and sisters in the Lord. So when people accept the Lord, we get new spiritual family members.
We get everlasting fellowship that for all of eternity, that person that we witness to that accepted the Lord, they are in God's presence, they are part of our family, and throughout all of the ages. What a wonder.
There's an old song from, I think, the 90s. Thank you for giving to the Lord. I am a life that was changed as result of someone that shared the gospel.
And what a wonderful, amazing thing. I think about the fact that Paul was one of the ones that was like endorsing the death of the deacon, Stephen, in Acts chapter 7 and 8.
And even though Paul was part of the reason that Stephen died, even as Stephen was dying, he echoed the words of Jesus, Father, forgive them because they don't know what they're doing. Then Paul accepted the Lord.
And I can only imagine what a reunion that was in heaven that for all eternity, these men that were on opposite sides here on earth, now they get to be together forever in a good way. In heaven, all of your sins are gone.
You won't have to deal with some of the personality frustrations that you might experience now. We also in our witness, we get to have boldness in Jesus. Do you know that evangelism gets easier the more you do it?
If you've never talked to someone about Jesus, then you might get pretty scared to say something for the very first time. But when you go, okay, well, I've told like five different people this week. Let's one more.
We get further and further boldness in Jesus through our witnessing.
We get encouragement to remain faithful to the Lord when we witness, because we don't want to betray what we're telling others, hey, follow Jesus, and then us personally not follow Jesus.
So it helps us to stay on the right path when we say, I know that I've got disciples after me, people that I'm encouraging, you know, my friend or my kid, that I want to walk on the faithful path because I don't want to lead them astray, because I'm
the one that told them about Jesus, I don't want them to think that Jesus isn't real because I didn't walk with him. So it encourages us, it blesses us in encouraging us to remain faithful to the Lord.
There are countless blessings to sharing your faith with others. And then third today, your disobedience in evangelism doesn't thwart God's plans. So God works to save through his people.
You're individually called to share the gospel with others, you receive eternal blessings in your evangelism, but if and when we fail to evangelize, it doesn't mean that God's plans are thwarted.
Jesus said that everyone that the father gave him would come to him.
This gives us great comfort in knowing that even if we failed in our witness at various points in our life, it doesn't mean that Jesus lost people that would have otherwise come to him.
But this should also be an incredibly sobering thought, that we aren't guaranteed a helping role in God's amazing work of salvation.
That hoping role is voluntary, and we can choose to not reap any of the benefits or joys of evangelism and discipleship. We can have a Christian walk that is useless to everyone else in our lives, which is not God's design.
I don't want what God's given me to end with me. I want to pass it on to others. I think the greatest scriptural example of this is Jonah, that he was called to evangelize Nineveh.
He refused, he took a ship all the way to Spain, obviously had the whole encounter with the whale, got spit back out onto the shore. He had to go all the way over to Nineveh. He begrudgingly preaches to them.
He doesn't even tell them the good news. If you don't know the story of Jonah, God says, hey, repent, or this will be the bad things that happen. Jonah just gives the bad things are going to happen.
And yet the people still repent and turn to God and they go, maybe he'll be merciful to us.
And then Jonah had to watch from a distance as revival broke out in this terrible town and he had no joy, there was no benefit to him as a result of what God was doing in the town. I want to participate in God's salvation of others.
I don't just want to be a bystander or an onlooker. And then lastly today, not only does God work in people's hearts to save them, and not only does God work to save through his people, that he didn't have to use us.
He could have just wrote it in the sky or used angels, but he wants to involve us. Today, God is the author and the finisher of salvation. We can see this in verses 39 through 42, the verses we started off with.
Now, many Samaritans from that town believed in him because of what the woman said when she testified, he told me everything I ever did. So when the Samaritans came to him, they asked him to stay with them and he stayed there two days.
Many more believed because of what he said. And they told the woman, we no longer believe because of what you said, since we have heard for ourselves. And know that this really is the savior of the world.
I love Hebrews chapter 12 and verse number two that says, Look unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him, endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
Do you notice how Jesus was the one at the beginning of the chapter that talked to the woman? Jesus was the one that called the disciples to follow him. Jesus was the one who convinced the townspeople that he really was the savior.
God uses people, but all of salvation is due to his work, not our own. We can see this first, that salvation is a divine action. It's not a sales pitch.
We can see this in Mark chapter 4 with the parable of the soils, that Jesus says, as the gospel truth, as the gospel seed goes out, some of it falls on stony ground, that it can't get in, that the hard is too hard and someone doesn't have an openness
to God. And so then crows come and they take away that gospel seed. He says, for others, it starts to go in, but then thorns and brambles, it comes and it chokes out the word so that it doesn't survive. He says, in other ones, what's the third soil?
Ah, yes, shallow ground that can't get any roots. And so as soon as the sun comes up, then the plant, it dies off. It's not really says, but in the last one, hearts that are ready for the Lord, it goes and it brings forth fruit for 20 and 40 and 100.
What makes the difference in salvation is not how slick you are.
It's not how many hands you can get raised or how many people you can get to walk the aisle, but it is God's perfect gospel reaching the soil of a heart that God's prepared to receive it.
So don't think that unless you're Ray Comfort or Jimmy scroggins, you can't talk to people about Jesus.
God will use your testimony with those you interact with, just as he did with the woman at the well, that she says, come see a man who told me everything that I ever did.
I'm sure for some of the town's people, they'd be like, listen, I only know half the things you've done. And I'm shocked already if he told you everything you did. I want to go hear about that.
God will use your testimony. One of my favorite accounts in scripture is in Mark chapter 5, you have the demoniac in in Gadara, that he was a demon possessed man, was cutting himself.
I've heard him described before in sermons as the nude dude in a crude mood. And that is apropos from scripture's description of him. And he gets saved, all the demons are cast out.
He asked Jesus, hey, can I travel with you? Can I become one of your disciples? And Jesus tells him, go and tell the people in the city, everything that God has done for you.
When Jesus comes to town that time, the maniac of Gadara, as he's called, was the only person that like wanted him around or wanted to hear from him.
The next time in scripture that we read that Jesus goes back to that region, you have the feeding of the four or 5,000, I forget which one in particular it was, that now there's a large crowd. And man, what a difference that your testimony makes.
Paul's testimony is so powerful because of his background. Don't think that you have too much sin in your past and so you can't really share your testimony, that your testimony is not squeaky clean.
God can use a dirty past testimony to bring glory to him, to say, this is who I was, but I'm not anymore. I was a persecutor of Christians, but now God has made me new. And God can use a clean testimony as well, if you will.
It's not just the younger prodigal son that needed the father's love.
It was also the son that had been with the father the whole time that as he sees the forgiveness that the father offers, that then the older son's like, oh, listen, I can't believe you're treating him so nicely.
I've been with you the whole time and you never killed the fat calf for me. And he says, hey, everything that I have is yours.
So whether you've got a terrible past or you think you've got a squeaky clean past, in both instances, you didn't save yourself, Jesus saved you, Jesus enabled you, and he wants to bring people to Jesus through your story.
Some of you are thinking, well, not mine, mine's not that great. Your story too. Disciples make disciples.
God wants to use you and your story. If you say everything smoothly and great, wonderful, but if you stutter and make mistakes like Moses, it's okay. God didn't call you to sell vacuums or cars.
He called you to share what he has done for you. Secondly, today, not only is salvation a divine action and not your best sales pitch, but salvation is a personal relationship with God, not with you.
The woman initially brought the townspeople to Jesus, but they ended up believing, not necessarily because of her, they say, we no longer believe because of what you've said, but because they actually got to know Jesus personally and believed in him
personally. Don't try to win people to you or maybe to your political stances or to a list of do's and don'ts.
Win people to Jesus, God incarnate who came to earth, lived a perfect sinless life, died on the cross in our place, taking the punishment for the sins we've committed, who was buried and who rose again from the dead three days later.
Tell them about his forgiveness, about how he wants to be the lord of their life, and tell them how that has looked in your story. Salvation is a personal relationship with God, not with you.
And lastly today, you're invited to reap a harvest, not create one. God is known from all eternity past, which individuals will turn to Jesus for salvation.
As the Book of Revelation states, our names have been written in the Book of Life from the foundation of the world. We're not trying to manufacture prayers and baptisms.
We are on a glorious adventure to find God's people from every nation and tribe and people group and language. You don't have to sell heaven, scare people out of hell, make church or Jesus cool or exciting enough.
You need to faithfully tell other people every chance you get about the God who brought you from death to life and who loves them so much that he sent Jesus to die in their place and rise again. Salvation is not your work.
It's God's work that he invites us to participate in. Today, we've seen these three truths. The God works in people's hearts to save them.
Not only does he work in people's hearts, but he invites us to join him. He works to save through his people, through us declaring the gospel, through our testimony and our stories. And God is the author and finisher of salvation.
So we don't have to errantly think that it's all up to us. It is all from the Lord. Today, will you choose to be personally involved with the evangelistic work that God is doing in the lives of those around you?
If you don't know Jesus today, then can I tell you, there is no better time.
If God's been working in your heart today and you've gone, yep, everything that he's talking about, recognizing Jesus, Jesus dying for my sin, I've never joined in with that. There is no better day than today.
I would love to talk with you right after the service or set up an appointment with you this week and talk with you about how you can become a disciple of Jesus and know him personally.
For you as a child of God today, who can you bring back with you to Jesus this week?
