    Personal Ministry

    Christ neglected no opportunity to proclaim the gospel of salvation. Listen to His wonderful words to that one woman of Samaria who came to draw water as He was sitting by Jacob’s well. “‘Give Me a drink,’” He said, surprising her by asking a favor of her. He wanted some cool water, but He also wished to open a way by which He might give her the water of life. “‘How is it,’” the woman asked, “‘that You, being a Jew, ask a drink from me, a Samaritan woman?’ For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.”MHH 13.3

    Jesus answered, “‘If you knew the gift of God, and who it is who says to you, “Give Me a drink,” you would have asked Him, and He would have given you living water. ... Whoever drinks of this water will thirst again, but whoever drinks of the water that I shall give him will never thirst. But the water that I shall give him will become in him a fountain of water springing up into everlasting life.’” John 4:7-14.MHH 13.4

    How much interest Christ manifested in this one woman! How earnest and eloquent were His words! When the woman heard them, she left her water pot and went into the city, saying to her friends, “‘Come, see a Man who told me all things that I ever did. Could this be the Christ?’” We read that “many of the Samaritans of that city believed in Him.” Verses 29, 39. And who can estimate the influence that these words have had on the work of soul winning in the years that have passed since then?MHH 13.5

    Wherever hearts are open to receive the truth, Christ is ready to instruct them. He reveals to them the Father and the service acceptable to Him who reads the heart. For such, He uses no parables. To them, as to the woman at the well, He says, “I who speak to you am He.”MHH 13.6
