The Apostle Paul On Winning People

1 Corinthians 9

Christian leadership according to Paul:

1. Live with and relate to the world. While doing this, do not become just like the world. Do this because the Gospel was made for the world.

2. Relate and speak to people in a way they will receive you.

3. Make yourself a servant to everyone so they may believe you care.

4. Discipline yourself so that you can live up to the standard you expect of others.

5. Win the cultural and ethnic leaders.

6. It is a sin to change the message. It is a sin to NOT change the method.

Mark 10:45 (Jesus came not to be served but to serve)

Genesis 12 (God commands Abram to move out into the world, but promises to serve him.)
