1 After these things the Lord appointed seventy others also, and sent them two by two before His face into every city and place where He Himself was about to go. 2 Then He said to them, “The harvest truly is great, but the laborers are few; therefore pray the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest.
Luke 10:1-2
Q & A:
- Explain what Jesus’s words “The harvest is great, but the laborers are few” mean to you. Knowing that the hearts of men are likely to be more humbled as many have been negatively affected by the COVID-19 outbreak with fear, anxiety, or hopelessness, what or where do you see as the harvest opportunity for you? (Luke 10:1-2)
- With the fact that Jesus sent disciples out to preach the kingdom of God while Himself also doing so from city to city, discuss how this shows you about the urgency and the heart of God in reaching the lost. Explain if you are aligned that every believer is entrusted with sharing the gospel and to have the lost reconciled to God, and also how have you been Christ’s ambassador. (Luke 4:43; Luke 19:9-10; 2 Pet 3:9; 2 Cor 5:18-20)
- Discuss what struggles do you face in sharing the gospel, since Jesus gave us the Great Commission as His last concern for the lost, just before His ascension to heaven. Explain the 5 different categories of unbelievers in the Response Pyramid and how you should approach them accordingly. (Matt 28:18-20)
