Some "Do's" and "don'ts" of evangelismPosted : 14 May, 2010 06:42 PMthe right hemisphere deals with images while the left processes words. art vs logic. this has nothing to do with either. i guess my strong opposition stems from it's oh so close resemblance to the scribes and pharisees. i see your point about different learning styles, but my point is that love cannot be learned neither taught. it IS and can only be accepted and appreciated. i do see you point however but this has nothing to do with the human brain. God is far outside our realm of understanding, so far that he must simply be accepted. no emotion can convey his awesome power or love for us. i have a problem with him being reduced to some simple method. |

Some "Do's" and "don'ts" of evangelismPosted : 15 May, 2010 10:17 AMOne thing I learned at my church was that evangelism is really about building a persaonal relationship with a person. You become their friend and they can see the fruit of the spirit working through you. They see that we are not perfect but we have a perfect God who helps us in rough times. It is much easier to lead someone to Jesus when they are your friend and trust you then to go to a stranger. When we show God's love to others it draws them to Him. |

Some "Do's" and "don'ts" of evangelismPosted : 16 May, 2010 07:51 AMI don't think the list is too bad...but I do know what everyone is talking about. I went to a evangelism seminar, and the guy was like...pure unemotional logic. It was kinda scary actually....but one of the things he was "teaching" us to do was that if someone invited us in we should ask for a glass of water or ask to use the bathroom "to build trust". Just sounded more like a con-artists seminar or something...anyway...I think it's much better if we just live our lives like Jesus, helping people, building our christian character, and if we can do that...our light will shine everywhere naturally. And I've seen it work, people come up to these beautiful Christians and ask them! "What do you have?!". People need to see Christianity in practice and not just in speech. We need to be a peculiar people, unswayed by troubles and trials. Humble, merciful...like Jesus...and people will ask where we get our strength and love on their own. Public ministry does have it's place though...just seems like it would be more effective if you had some kind of pre-evangelism outreach. Helping people with stuff...or something... |
