5 Things I Learned From Jesus and the Samaritan Woman
As I read, meditated over, and prayed about the encounter that Jesus had with the Samaritan woman at the well in Sychar I learned some valuable truths about presenting the gospel. I share them with you with hopes that they will be beneficial towards your gospel presentation opportunities.
Jesus engaged in
conversation with a Samaritan woman - we can engage anyone with the gospel
Jesus engaged in
dialogue with this woman by using a common place need in her physical life - physical thirst & the need to constantly draw water
Jesus did not press
her for a "decision" when she asked for the water Christ spoke
of - Jesus slowed the process down in order for her to fully understand why she need this living water
Jesus knew she
wasn't asking from the right motive - she wanted his "water" in
order not to get thirsty again nor to need to draw water again
Jesus had to get
her to admit sin and her real need of spiritual water - he made her aware of her sin (adultery & fornication)
