Preaching from the account of Philip and the Ethiopian eunuch in Acts 8, Mark Palmer explains that the purpose of a preached message is to convict, to convince, and to convert the hearer. He shows how telling others about Jesus Christ brings conviction by the Holy Spirit, how the Word of God builds faith, and how a lost person is saved by believing in his heart. The message encourages soul winning through preaching, tracts, and personal witness, reminding believers that God draws those who seek Him.
