A TORRtY SERMON

He that winneth souls is wise. ~
Prov XII 80.
II was TO go mp and down the
streets of Birmingham and ask the
different men and women whom
met. Whom do you regard as the
wise man?" | would get a great vari-
ETY. OF answers. -
But when | turn away from men
with all these discordant answers and
look up to God and say, Heavenly
Father. whom dost Thou regard as
the wise men," there comes thunder
ing down from yonder throne of eter-
nal light this answer. "He that winn-
eth souls IA wise" Not he that wins
money. pot he that wins POLITICAL
distinctions and honour and position,
not he that wins renown in the field
of battle, not he that wins most sport
and amusement In life. but he that
wins the most men and women TO a
saving knowledge of Jesus Christ, he
10 the wise man.
Men and women, in the eyes OF
God the wise man is the man that
makes soul-winning the business Of
hir life, and my main proposition this
afternoon Is this, that every follower
of Jesus Christ should make the vim
ing of others to Christ the business
OF his life. know that some of you
say, 81 don't believe that; | believe
that the statement is altogether too
strong" l am going to give you this
afternoon six unanswerable reasons
why soul-winEing should be the busi-
ness of the life on the part of every
follower OF Jesus Christ.
First of all, soul-winning should be
the business of life with every Christ
ian because that is the work that
Jesus Christ has commended us TO
do. When the Lord Jesus Christ left
this earth, He left His marching or
ders TO the Church. You will find
them in Matt. xviii. 10, Go We in
TO all the world and make disciples
of all the nations" That command
ment was not merely for the first
twelve disciples; 1t was for every fol-
lower of Jesus Christ in every age of
the Church's history. II you VIII
take the book of Acts you will see
very plainly that in the early Church
every Christian considered that the
great commission to make disciples,
to win souls, was for himself. For ex-
