Summary

Saving anyone from death would, of course, be a noble goal. If physical death threatens someone and we can help them avert it, we should by all means try to do so. But especially if there is a risk of spiritual, eternal death, we should step in and try to stop it. Today I will share the four musts of saving a soul from death. These four ingredients are needed for every Christian life.

I. Restoration Must Be Our Plan

II. Admonition Must Be Our Call

III. Conversion Must Be Our Goal

IV. Salvation Must Be The Result

Talk with God: Pray for an unbelieving or backslidden friend or family member and take comfort in knowing God’s Word “shall not return…void” (Isaiah 55:11).

Talk with others: Sharpen another believer (see Proverbs 27:17) this week through gentle, Spirit-led correction, encouraging words, or time spent praying together.

Talk with kids: What difficulties did Paul and Barnabas have to endure while sharing the gospel?
