Here's what Paul was saying to those in Thessalonica: "When Jesus comes, my crown is going to those that I've led to Him." Now that's a crown that doesn't corrupt. When you die and go to heaven, are you going to take somebody with you, or are you going to heaven alone? "Must I go and empty-handed, must I meet my Savior so; without one soul with which to greet Him, must I empty-handed go?" Now I don't want to hurt your feelings, but I'm concerned because most people in church are not active soul winners. That's tragic.

You say, "But, Pastor, I give my money." I don't care how much money you give. If you're not endeavoring to bring souls to Christ, you're not right with God. You say, "Well, I teach." I don't care how eloquently you teach.  If you're not trying to bring souls to Jesus, you're not right with God. You say, "Well, I attend faithfully." I don't care how much you attend. If you're not trying to bring souls to Jesus Christ, you are not right with God.

Andrew Murray said, "There are two classes of Christians: soul winners and backsliders." You are one or the other. If you don't have a passion to see people come to the Lord Jesus Christ, I wonder if you know the Jesus I know.
