ANDREW – The Soul-Winner

Matthew 4:18 (KJV) 

    And Jesus, walking by the sea of Galilee, saw two brethren, Simon called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers.

Fishers – the call to soul-winning is similar

Matthew 10:2 (KJV) 

    Now the names of the twelve apostles are these; The first, Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother; James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother;

Apostle – the call to soul-winning began as a call to follow Christ – the CHOICE is YOURS

Mark 13:3 (KJV) 

    And as he sat upon the mount of Olives over against the temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew asked him privately,

Intimate – the fellowship of the soul-winner CANNOT bear to fail…souls are dying

John 6:8-9 (KJV) 

    One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, saith unto him, [9] There is a lad here, which hath five barley loaves, and two small fishes: but what are they among so many?

Problems or POSSIBILITIES? -  There is a lad here – are you LOOKING for souls?

John 12:22 (KJV) 

    Philip cometh and telleth Andrew: and again Andrew and Philip tell Jesus.

Tell it to Jesus - Joint effort – working together and telling Jesus about the situation
