The Failure of Witnessing

 FOR SOME, IT IS A LACK OF CONCERN...

1. Not concerned for the Lord's cause, who came to seek and save - Lk 19:10

2. Not concerned for those lost and dying in sin, unlike Paul - cf. Ro 10:1

3. Not concerned for their own welfare, endangered by failing to bear fruit - Jn 15:1-2

-- Have we become so hardened, that we no longer care?

B. FOR SOME, IT IS A LACK OF KNOWLEDGE...

1. Lacking knowledge of God's Word

a. Perhaps unaware that Jesus calls us to this mission - Mt 28:19;Mk 16;15; 1Pe 2:9

b. Perhaps needing to be taught again so we may teach others - He 5:12
