Scripture Union Daily Guide 4th May 2025 Outline
As he started his ministry, Paul saw that it was necessary to compare notes with the church leaders in Jerusalem who had worked with the Lord Jesus Christ. Many new workers run alone and suffer many unnecessary problems. Are you comfortable to work with other believers in ministry? Paul saw the need of working from the same page as believers in order that the gospel would not be discredited (Galatians 2:2).
Paul’s team consisted of, among others, Barnabas, a Levite and Titus, a Greek, probably to show leading church leaders there was unity between the races in his team and an example for the Judaizers. Paul pointed out that there was no demand for Titus to be circumcised (Acts 15:28-29) and no new teaching was added to Paul’s gospel by leaders in Jerusalem.
Both sides saw that God had indeed called Paul to work among Gentiles as much as Peter was called to work among Jews. Each tribe or race should feel comfortable to come before God without being embarrassed of who they are. Are you convinced God loves you as you are? Is money, profession, church position or tribe making you proud or despise other people?
Notice the additional area of service Paul was to remember (Galatians 2:10)’
Action: How do you show concern for the poor around you?

Win them one by one
1. If to Christ our only king
Men redeemed we strive to bring,
Just one way this may be done—
We must win them one by one.
Refrain
So you bring the one next to you,
And I’ll bring the one next to me;
In all kinds of weather,
We’ll all work together,
And see what can be done.
If you’ll bring the one next to you,
And I bring the one next to me,
In no time at all we’ll have them all,
So win them, win them, one by one.
2. Side by side we stand each day,
Saved are we, but lost are they;
They will come if we but dare
Speak a word backed up by prayer.
3. Only cowards dare refuse,
Dare this gift of God misuse;
Ere some friend goes to his grave,
Speak a word his soul to save.
4. Not for hope of great reward
Turn men’s hearts unto the Lord;
Just to see a saved man smile
Makes the effort well worthwhile.
