31. A Heart for the Lost (Romans 15:14-33)

Paul’s burning, driving ambition in life was to faithfully discharge the trust God had given him in preaching the gospel. Obedience to the Great Commission was what motivated everything he did. In 1 Cor 9:16-17, Paul tells us that he was compelled to preach. “Woe to me if I do not preach the gospel!”
David Brainerd, Missionary to the North American Indians in the mid-1,700s, put it this way: 
“I care not where I go or how I live or what I endure so that I may save souls. When I sleep, I dream of them; when I awake, they are first in my thoughts.”
That’s the kind of heart that Paul had! A passion first for Christ, and a matching passion for those Christ loved.

Enjoy the message.
