Today on Summit Life, a freeing message from Pastor Jiddy Greer.

God does the drawing and the convincing and the persuading.

You can give the finest presentation of the gospel ever.

And if God is not working in their hearts, then what you said won't have the slightest effect.

At the same time, you can give the lousiest presentation of the gospel.

And if God is working in their hearts, God will use it because salvation belongs to God. Welcome to Summit Life with Pastor J.D. Greer.

I'm your host Molly Bidovich.

Today we're continuing to study the gospel revealed in the book of Jonah,

as Pastor J.D reminds us that people don't come to Christ through our eloquent speeches or our persuasive

arguments.

People come to Christ through God's relentless love.

Aren't you glad it's not just up to you to convince people what a freeing message about God's

saving grace. It's part of our teaching series called Castaway and if you've missed

any part of the series so far you can catch up online at J.D. Greer.com. Now let's join Pastor JD as he shares

today's teaching called The Making of a Witness.

Jonah 3 verse 1 here we go

jona 3 1 then the word of the Lord came to jona

the second time

all right say that again i'm gonna read it and then we come to that part i want you to say it

then the word of the Lord came to Jonah the second time.

Aren't you grateful for second chances with God?

I know a lot of people who get very far from God
