4. God will one day ask every believer to account how he has used his ability to execute this evangelistic assignment.
5. Heavens will rejoice with soul sinners.
6. Christians are expected to win more souls with their divine abilities.
7. Believers will be given positions of leadership and responsibility according to the number of souls they won on earth.
