Proverbs 11:30 says: "He that winneth souls is wise."

This should be indication enough that God cares about the sinner and expects us to care also. If God cared enough for them to give His only begotten Son that they might not perish but have everlasting life, then we surely ought to care enough to tell them about that love. Don't you agree?

Psalm 111:6 says: "He hath shown his people the power of his works, that he may give them the heritage of the heathen." Here God is telling us that He has empowered His people with His own miracle virtue to enable them to claim their inheritance of unregenerated souls. Did you know that the lost are the inheritance of the righteous? They are part of our inheritance, and the person who wins them is wise.

Why should we care enough about the lost to go? Because God cared enough about us to send His own Son for us. Now He is sending us for them. Do we dare refuse to go?
