Are you able to offer the world water of life?
Dr. Roberto Miranda
(Audio: Spanish)
SUMMARY: The passage is about Jesus meeting a Samaritan woman at a well and offering her living water. The sermon focuses on the importance of evangelism and the need to consecrate ourselves to spreading the Gospel. The speaker compares the walls of Jericho in the Bible to the walls of isolation, suspicion, and cultural pluralism that prevent people from accepting the Gospel. He acknowledges the difficulty of evangelism but reminds the congregation that God always has a solution.
The speaker discusses the importance of evangelism in bringing people to the knowledge of Jesus and breaking down the walls of sin. They emphasize the need for a missionary and evangelistic vision in the church, and for individuals to become agents of life in their daily lives. The speaker uses the example of Jesus' encounter with the Samaritan woman at the well to illustrate the importance of showing compassion and understanding to those who may be seen as lost or despised by society. They encourage Christians to reach out to all people, regardless of their background or past sins, and to be salt of the Earth in their communities. The speaker also notes that God's grace will be present in the midst of all struggles and tribulations, and that calamities may be used by God to soften people's hearts and prepare them for salvation.
The Lord did not reject even politically corrupt sinners like Plunder, and we should remember that sometimes people deny Christ outwardly, but inwardly they may want to know Him. We should be fiercely holy but also plain and natural, and win people over with our humanity. The Samaritan woman was carrying out a spiritual symbol, and the Lord offered her living water, which satisfies all thirsts and gives meaning, purpose, and freedom. Before we offer the world this water, we must drink it ourselves and live transformed lives. We need liberated marriages and families, and we defeat Satan with love, grace, and mercy.
The speaker is advocating for a Church that offers a Gospel of grace, mercy, and love, but also a Gospel of Truth. He emphasizes the importance of offering people water of life, which can only be found through Jesus Christ. The Church should be open to all sinners who want to surrender to Jesus and should offer a supportive community to transform people into men and women of God. The speaker invites anyone who wants to give their life to Jesus to do so and not let their problems and obstacles hinder them.

John chapter 4 verse 5: It's a long passage but we're going to cut it short and then we'll just share it by recounting it. You all know it pretty well anyway, the story of the Samaritan woman, Jesus and the Samaritan woman. The Lord is walking and stops in a place in Samaria, in a city called Sychar of the province, the region of Samaria.
It says: "So he came to a city of Samaria" verse 5 "called Sychar next to the field that Jacob gave to his son Joseph. And Jacob's well was there. the sixth hour." It was like 12 noon, it was practically noon. "A woman from Samaria came to draw water and Jesus said to her: give me a drink, for his disciples had gone to the city to buy food. Samaritan woman?, because Jews and Samaritans do not treat each other."
