Ministering: PROPHET W.T. MILTON
Topic: EVANGELISM
Romans 10:13-15
KEY THOUGHTS ON EVANGELISM
- Evangelism is a command and not an option
- It is a core responsibility to every believer, not a specific calling (Mathew 28:19-20) in other words everyone is sent.
- It is obedience to Jesus Christ.
- It is love expressed. When you truly love and care about people, you will share the gospel with them. (2 Corinthians 5:14)
WHAT IS EVANGELISM?
- The act of sharing the good news with the aim of inviting people to the faith.
- The good news involves talking about; the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF EVANGELISM?
- For salvation of souls. Note: The word salvation in Greek is soteria and it is a fourfold word which means to be saved/ delivered from the power, penalty, presence, and desire of sin.
- For the establishment of the saved. John 15:16.
When you don’t make attempts to establish souls, two things happen.
(a) They will return back to the world and be inoculated against the gospel.
(b) The devil might sense that they will be stable in their decision to follow Christ so do everything to cut them.
Note: God wants us to bear fruits that endure.
KINDS OF EVANGELISM
- Preaching evangelism (Mark 16:15): It includes revealing the love and mercies of God to mankind. It's not condemnation and accusation.
- Character Evangelism (Matthew 5:13-16):
Your actions are more evangelistic than your confession. Preaching is easy when you have a matching character.
Saint Augustin once said " Preach the gospel always and where necessary use words". Your life ought to be a living bible (Matthew 23:3).
- Presence evangelism (1 kings 4:8-9): It is a presence that carries the convicting power of God. (1 Corinthians 4:20)
- Charity evangelism (John 3:16), Acts 9:39: This is preaching through your good works. It involves meeting the needs of your neighbors and those in need.
- Power evangelism (Mark 16:18-19, Acts 28:7-9): This is preach through miracles. Signs and wonders have a voice, and miracles speak.
- Testimony Evangelism (Acts 9:33-35, John 4:39)
Let people know what is doing that's what the Samaritan woman did..
