Rhapsody of Realities 5 May 2025: Make Your Evangelism Complete
Scripture: 1 Peter 2:2-3 As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby: If so be ye have tasted that the Lord is gracious.
When you lead people to Christ to receive salvation, at that moment, they’re still spiritual babies who must begin to learn the Word of God. The Word of God is the food for the human spirit—it’s the only material that guarantees spiritual growth. Therefore, new converts must be taught the Word and given the opportunity to learn and grow in it.
This is where going to church plays a key role. When you win souls, immediately introduce them to a local church where they can participate in the things of God and be trained and nurtured spiritually. Failing to bring them into a church is like a woman who gives birth to a baby, leaves the baby at the hospital’s maternity ward, and goes home. That’s unthinkable.
It’s important to take those you’ve led to Christ to your church. Don’t just tell them to go to any “nice” church—that’s like having a child and saying, “This child can go to any mother.” Instead, guide them to the church where you are, where you can support and follow up with them.
If the person believed your message about Jesus, they ought to know you came from somewhere—and that somewhere should be a spiritual home where they too can now belong.
When you bring them to your church, you can help guarantee their spiritual growth because you know what they’re going to hear. Connect them with someone from your church—a leader, a group member, or even the pastor. Let them know you’re excited about their salvation and that others in the church will be excited too.
Make your evangelism complete. Help them see that their growth in Christ is a priority and that the church is the best environment for them to flourish spiritually.

Acts 2:41-47
41 Then those who gladly received his word were baptized; and that day about three thousand souls were added to them. 42 And they continued steadfastly in the apostles’ doctrine and fellowship, in the breaking of bread, and in prayers. 43 Then fear came upon every soul, and many wonders and signs were done through the apostles. 44 Now all who believed were together, and had all things in common, 45 and sold their possessions and goods, and divided them among all, as anyone had need.
46 So continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, they ate their food with gladness and simplicity of heart, 47 praising God and having favor with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily those who were being saved.
Ephesians 4:11-12
11 And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, 12 for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ,
Hebrews 10:25
25 not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching.
