Hands For The Harvest Analysis
God sent His son Jesus to seek and save the lost from an eternity in hell. John 3:16 says, “For this is how God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life."

Needed: Hands for the Harvest is a sermon by J Gerald Harris that focuses on the importance of sowing into the people around us that do not know God. That's why Jesus came to earth and that's what we (His people) are called to do. In his message, Harris says, "Jesus Christ is still the Lord of the harvest, and He is still calling for laborers to join Him in sowing the Gospel seeds and reaping eternal souls for the glory of God."

    Jasper F. Cropsey is one of the famous American landscape painters of the second generation of the Hudson River School during the 19th century. In his work American Harvesting (1851) that is now kept in the IU art museum, he presents the American landscape as an uncorrupted and prosperous Eden, where human beings live there effortlessly as masters of nature. The most recognizable stylistic feature in his work would be the balance of wilderness and civilization, which is accomplished through the use of light and color. He depicts the landscape in a massive scale, and also plays with large and small forms using proportion.…

    A great chasm exists that separates unbelievers from believers1. An example of this chasm is presented in the Gospel of Luke, “And in hell he lifted up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off and Lazarus in his bosom.”2 The chasm is presented in the “afar off” statement. This chasm, as pointed out by David Wheeler and Richard Leach, is what makes evangelism necessary. Essentially, every Christian is to seek a way to bridge these chasms bringing the unbeliever face-to-face with their Creator3. In order to perform this great task, and the task was as great in the Apostles’ day as today, “Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few; Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest”4 the Christian servant today must rely on the Lord in every aspect and seek out opportunities to present Christ to those around him. Seeing then that there is such great work ahead, and the laborers have been assigned their task, “For he whom God hath sent speaketh the words of God: for God giveth not the Spirit by measure unto him”5, the only success to be found is through sharing the faith by the Word of God through the Spirit…

    Paul discussed how, without Christ our identity is found in our sinful ways. However, there is absolute hope and truth that by His grace, Christ died for our sins and offered a way for us to be able to spend eternity with Him. For this reason, God sees Jesus when He looks at His redeemed children. Romans 7:7-13…

    The purpose of Christ isin Romans 8:1-3, it is that through Jesus Christ one is no longer under condemnation, one is justified through Him!How does this come to be in a person’s life, by faith? Romans 5:1 tells the believer that they are justified by faith, not only justified but now have peace with God. This is confirmed for those that live by faith in this good news in Romans 10:4. Once again Paul leads us into a deeper understanding of our lives with Christ, now that we are justified, we also have been sanctified.Paul tells us in Romans Chapter 15:16 that it is the Holy Ghost which sanctifies, that is, we have been set apart for something greater than pleasing ourselves found in Romans 8:12-13 and the ultimate setting apart in Romans 12:1-2. Now that one has been born again, how shall that person live? According to the Spirit, not pleasing the flesh or submitting to it. God has provided the possibility for a believer to live graciously through the power of the Holy Spirit, and one can find the ethics for living this life in Chapters 12-14.…

    On August 16th, 2015, John Oliver’s news show on HBO, Last Week Tonight, shed a cutting light on religious ministers who devote the majority of the ministry through television broadcasting. Mainly Christian, these ministers, known as “Televangelists”, and can be either official or self-proclaimed ministers that enlist their followers into “seed faith”. Defining this term, Televangelist Rick Warren explains the principal of “seed faith”, or “sowing and reaping” as sending money to his church -“planting the seed”- whenever you might have or ask for a need from God. Given time you will “harvest” the benefits and gain what you originally asked for with blessings (Warren). Oliver, however, has a different view about such prosperity gospels and made…

    Man was created by God to forever love and worship Him. We were made perfect and intended to stay perfect. God gave us a choice whether to stay loyal to Him or to go our separate ways and live for ourselves. In Genesis 3 it reads, “They heard the sound of the Lord God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and the man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God among the trees of the garden.” Man had a personal and daily relationship with God but after man decided to sin, our shame overtook us. Our focus on God was for the most part lost. No matter how good one of us were, the whole (meaning all humanity) would never truly know God. We were forever cursed to die. Athanasius, a fourth century theologian, wrote to his followers and enemies on why and how Christ was the solution to the fall that we had put on ourselves in his book The Incarnation of the Word of God.…

    Salvation is the state of being saved from God 's judgment upon us the sinner (Erickson). The only way to be saved is to trust Jesus for the forgiveness of our sins (John 14:6, Acts 4:12). All who do not trust Jesus alone, by faith (Rom. 5:1; Rom. 6:23; Eph. 2:8-9) are not forgiven and go to hell when they die (Matt. 25:46; John 3:18). When Jesus forgives someone, He forgives all their sins and gives them eternal life and they shall never perish (John 10:28). He does not give them temporary eternal life otherwise, it would not be eternal.…
