Contagious: Making A Difference by Pastor Bolaji Idowu
2 Corinthians 5:17 KJV
When you become born again, something has to pass away and there are some things that you were not doing that you start to do. These are signs to show that you are Christian.
Philippians 2:5 KJV
Until you see things like Christ sees things, you will be limited in your spiritual growth.
When the mind of Christ is in you, something’s that were fun, will stop being fun to you
Sometimes that were not fun to you will now become fun to you because you have a new mind
It is your duty to allow the mindset to be in you
Without God I am nothing, all I have is all he gave me. Nothing can change my relationship with him.
Say: Let the mind of Christ be in you.
You have to be conscious that there are bigger things than what I can see
When the mind of Christ is in you, it begins to affect what you call fulfillment.
You will not that some things that used to bring you fulfillment don’t bring you fulfillment again because now you are in Christ.
2 Kings 7:3-9 KJV
Say: Let this mind be in you that was in Christ
Luke 19:10 KJV
When you begin to look at people the way God looks at them it will be very different

The issue is not the darkness, it is that the light is dim, the light is dead.

Don’t forget who you are
Why is it important to share the gospel?
- It brings fulfillment. The more I share the gospel the more fulfillment I get.
Fulfillment comes from giving back and pursuing a purpose that is outside money and worth the creation
Jude 1:22 -23 KJV. As a Christian, you can not have compassion and judge at the same time. We are quick to judge.
You can’t have compassion without paying attention

The question is this, will you put your name in the sand of time and serve your generation
Things to do:
- Start praying for people
- Start sharing on your social media. Your story of salvation, your church flyer.
- Invite them to church with you
- Every time you hear we are winning souls, make sure your money is there. If you cannot go, let your money go where there are going.
