Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into His harvest.<\/em>' <strong>Matthew 9:37-38 (BSB)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Today few people go to a place of worship, so churches often do all they can to draw people in. Bringing people to God is the right motivation, but not all methods honour Him. Consequently, instead of church being God-focused, it becomes people-focused.<\/p>\n<p>In the same way, when the Gospel is presented, elements may be removed or toned down to make them more acceptable to people. However, if God\u2019s law is removed then sin is not explained. Without sin, we do not see our need for a Saviour nor do we see the significance of Jesus\u2019 death on a cross. This takes the good news out of the Gospel.<\/p>\n<p>But the Gospel <em>is<\/em> good news.
