"For the Son of Man has come to seek and to save that which was lost" (Luke 19:10).
Jesus came to earth for the greatest rescue mission in history - to save lost souls! He "sees" all people as "souls" needing urgent saving!
Everyone who has "sinned" is guilty of sin and "the wages of sin is death" (Rom. 6:23).
So, everyone you "see" (family, friends, co-worker, student, waitress, Walmart cashier, etc.) needs to know the love and grace of Christ - "the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord" (Rom. 6:23).
Evangelism will become simple when we "see" men, women, teens and children as "souls" needing the Savior - AND we believe every soul has only two destinies: Heaven or Hell.
This week "see" people like Jesus "sees" people. I pray it alarms, shocks, and motivates you to help someone to know Jesus and His truth. Like Paul, may we radically say, "necessity is laid upon me; yes, woe is me if I do not preach the gospel!" (1 Cor. 9:16). Be motivated!
