    Given The Bird For Sharing The Gospel

    Jesus used the law. And so should we. The Holy Spirit can then work through their conscience. In Psalms, it says, "The law of the Lord is perfect at converting the soul." If it is perfect, then why would we not use it? Also, the sign was not one of judgment. It was not saying, "You are condemned...

    Witnessing at a pagan festival in a storm

    In my previous post, I said that I went out and shared the Gospel with 3 people on the street. I had actually been invited by someone to join a group that was going to evangelise on the street and I had been asked to bring some million-dollar tracts for others to hand out. So, I was really...

    Given The Bird For Sharing The Gospel

    Jesus said. "The world ... hates me because I testify that its works are evil." So, Jesus pointed out people's sins. Sex outside of marriage is rife in the community today and people are going to perish because of it. Jesus pointed out people's sins so that they would realise that they had...

    Witnessing at a pagan festival in a storm

    I went out yesterday for a short time and only spoke to 3 people (it was showering but I was under shelter). The first was a young man and he said that he needed to start putting God first. I was really pleased. The second person listened to the Gospel but it went over her head. Then the last...

    Witnessing at a pagan festival in a storm

    This Saturday just been, I went with a couple of other Christians to share the Gospel at a festival called, "Baldrics Big Day Out." At this festival, many come dressed in medieval clothing and many do medieval reenacting of battles. Within this festival, there are all manner of people from all...

    But the advice I gave is to you, and I think you have the understanding that those churches are not true churches. So, find a local church and see if it is teaching what the scripture says. If it is reasonably good, stick with it as no church is perfect. You never know, you may be able to show...

    Given A Hard Time While Doing Sign Evangelism

    There is more to it than simply believing. Even the demons believe. Also, Matthew 7:21-23 shows people who believe, but still are not saved. It says, "“Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of My Father who is in heaven will...

    Witnessing Icebreakers

    You will find that every church has issues. The reason for this is that the church is made up of people who do wrong. Even the church I go to has issues. What we need to do is to find the best church in your area and then go to it and see if you can contribute to building up the people. Teach...

    Witnessing Icebreakers

    I had a situation where I became friends with this person, and I felt strongly that I should share the Gospel with him on this particular day. But instead, I thought to myself that I could do it another time. The following day, he was dead. I hesitated. So, I learned from this. I cannot...

    In reality, we do not need to know all the church's history or the early church writings. These can be useful, but the most important thing is the Gospel. Learn how to share it. Here is a link that may help. https://biblicalevangelism.com/ https://www.youtube.com/@LivingWaters Davd Hunter should...

    Witnessing Icebreakers

    You will find that most people do not want to hear the Gospel. The reason they do not want to hear it is because they are prideful and so they think that they are good people. But if we show them that they have sinned against God, they will be offended and not like it. Jesus even said that the...

    Witnessing Icebreakers

    Pray that God will give you a love for the lost. That love will overcome fear and will drive you to tell others the Gospel. Also, write out the Gospel and the reason why Jesus had to die (our sin). Then memorise it. This way, when you do share, you can have something already inside of you that...

    Witnessing Icebreakers

    No. But you used the word "we" near the start of your sentence. I definitely would not do that, but if you are, I cannot stop you. I give them $5.00 and then I give them an even bigger gift. I tell them the Gospel. What an awesome gift. What better gift is there? Is giving them the gift of the...

    Oh. One other thing that you have missed. Joel Osteen tries to trick others into giving him money. I am trying to give money away. LOL

    Witnessing Icebreakers

    If you class using tools to share the Gospel as foolish. Then, that is me. :) I also use a flipchart that has the Gospel on it. I guess that that is also foolish. If so, then that is me. I am a fool for Christ. Who's fool are you? If you wish you can do that. I prefer not to do things like that...

    Witnessing Icebreakers

    Offering someone $5 to finish a Bible verse does not make you an enemy of God. Neither does it make you a friend of the world. Was Paul also a friend of the world when he used the unknown God in evangelism? Certainly not. Of course, he was not of the world. He simply used what was available to...

    Witnessing Icebreakers

    To the weak I became weak, that I might gain the weak; I have become all things to all people, so that I may by all means save some. I do all things for the sake of the gospel, so that I may become a fellow partaker of it. 1 Cor 9:22-23 By all means, save the lost. How do you share the Gospel?

    Given A Hard Time While Doing Sign Evangelism

    You are arguing semantics. When speaking of the cross, I talk about what Jesus did on the cross. So, when I say "the cross", I am speaking in a generalised way. The cross is only 2 bits of wood. How can 2 bits of wood do something for a person? How do unbelievers realise that they lack eternal...

    Given A Hard Time While Doing Sign Evangelism

    There is not one particular way of doing it. Each person may have a different way of getting to the main subject. As long as in the end, the person knows that they are a sinner and needs the cross. Personally, I try to avoid small talk and apologetics as much as possible. So, as soon as I can...

    Given A Hard Time While Doing Sign Evangelism

    I think when doing evangelism, we do need to be prepared but there are so many questions out there and there are so many different people who present these questions that sometimes we may not have the answer or maybe the person will just get us off guard. The good thing about this is, that the...
