Examples Of Evangelism

Improved Essays
The world of Christianity has been expanding ever since there has been sin in the world. This is because evangelism exists for the sole purpose of saving the lost. Evangelizing to people means that a person will attempt to help people realize what is the accurate path of living in this life. Millions of people all over the world fail to see the real meaning behind God’s plan. Evangelism opens these peoples’ eyes to the facts. But many have absolutely no idea how to evangelize to anyone. One of these clueless people may stutter out the facts and do a poor job of communicating what they know to be true. Others might deliver the message to quickly or harshly. The proper technique of evangelizing ensures that the target audience will be enthralled with the information being given to them. One example of a great (and the most perfect) evangelizer ever to walk the earth is Jesus Christ himself. Using the best way to communicate the message, He used a simple combination of knowledge, wisdom, and love when preaching to the lost (One example can be found in Matthew 14:13–21).
Jesus Christ’s Life and Testimony With His life, Christ was able to win many over to God. He did so with the intention of helping everyone He was able to come across. Throughout His ministry He would tell stories, or parables, (one example can be found

It is something which every Christian should be ready to do once they have accepted the facts as truth. Once a person has come to the faith it is important for them to find spiritual help and guidance in the walk with Christ. When they find this help and guidance they should be directed and taught on how to spread the good news to others and not just study it for themselves. The purpose of evangelism is to spread the Word and make it known to all creatures (Mark 16:15). In hindsight, people should be ready to teach and help people learn as soon as they come to the

    Jesus was a great teacher who came into the world to preach and teach the gospel of Christ. Jesus was of flesh and was sent to do Gods work to help humanity rebuild a relationship with God. Jesus understood who he was and what he was and what he was called to do. He knew man had separated and was sinful. Jesus died on the cross for the remission of our sins. According to Hiles and Smith (2014) “Jesus’ life and death is the love of God, because Jesus’ identity is the eternal identity of the Father’s beloved Son.”(para. 36 ch.5) In order to rebuild a relationship with God we had to work through Jesus Christ. Jesus work was so significant for the Christian worldview because Jesus was humanities only hope for redemption. “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one come to the Father except through me.”(John 14:6 ESV) The resurrection of Jesus helped restore humanities relationship with…

    As believers, the first Christians were called to “preach and teach” God’s Word and the gospel with boldness, emphasizing the importance of Jesus’ death and resurrection (Acts 4:10, 4:29, 5:20, 5:42, 8:4-6, 8:25, 8:35, 13:5, 14:3, 16:31, 22:10). They were to speak the truth of the gospel to Jerusalem, Judea and Samaria (Acts 1:8), and to the ends of the earth, baptizing new believers in the name of Jesus (Acts 8:38, 16:15, 19:3-4, 22:16).…

    Spiritual Discipleship

    Churches spend much of their time and effort bringing people to a point of belief without clearly teaching them to follow Christ ways. Every new convert needs to know what God is like and what He requires of us. Without knowing what God is like believers cannot understand who God is. As we learn who He is the more we will be willing to surrender our lives in discipleship. Also, knowing what God the Father is like gives us a better understanding of what Jesus the Son’s ministry was about, His purpose for coming to earth and what He accomplished on the cross. The Father did not leave a mystery but He provided His word, the Bible to reveal Himself to mankind and through it we can know Him and have a deep personal relationship with Him and become His disciple.…

    Throughout His ministry, Christ used stories and metaphor to teach the people the gospel. On the surface, the stories are just that-- stories. Some were allegories. An allegory is a Greek word. It means a figurative story full of meaning and metaphor, where each thing in the story represents something else. If you look deeper into the meanings and symbols, bright truths can be learned. No matter what level a person is on, we can all gain light from the Savior's teachings.…

    Reflection On Tina Housers

    • 1123 Words
    • 4 Pages

    Throughout my whole life I have never really tried to make an effort to evangelize. Even growing up and having friends who would have benefited if I tried to point them to Jesus, it never occurred to me that it was something that I should do. Another reason why I believe that this is a weakness is because I myself am not yet to the point where I am comfortable talking about my own faith. So if I am not even comfortable/struggling with my own faith how could I truly lead others to Jesus? One way to help myself in this area is to constantly ask myself the question that Houser states, “Are you doing what you’re doing in order to point others to…

    We are not called to make converts, not to teach apologetics to large crowds exclusively, not to entertain the masses. Davis is right to emphasize that “coaching beats playing” and that our “long-term success is determined more by your work on the sidelines than by your spectacular plays as a speaker in front of a group.” How true! May we never become the type of apologist without time to counsel our young, to spend time with them in everyday life. Discipleship only happens as we spend time with our mentor and as we spend time with our own disciples. That is the model Jesus used, so it can’t be wrong! We may adapt our message to the culture but never compromise the truth or forget that the truth of the gospel will fall on fertile soil when we are trusted, credible, and people realize we care sincerely about them. No amount of apologetic arguments or stellar preaching will change…

    Evangelistic methods include saving people as well as souls, meaning helping God 's people on his kingdom on earth. Kingdom discipleship is a methodical approach that is not limited to traditional or tangible metrics. An evaluative examination of the quality of Kingdom evangelism is needed. According to Arias, this broad scope allows for the coming of God’s kingdom on earth by reclaiming the biblical gospel. Elements can include missional work such as following peace initiatives, feeding the hungry, advocating for the poor, curing capitalism, and liberating the oppressed, or whom Arias calls the…

    The most important call for any believer is to spread the Gospels message! God left his children here to carry out the great commission, but many things that can hinder His people from doing this. One things that can hinder the church from being lights in a lost and dying world is Idolatry. This is the number one tool that Satan uses on God's people, after all it’s the same trick he used on the Old Testament saints. Idolatry put a believer in a different state and mind, a different road, away from the road God wants His people to be. Allan Watts a famous philosopher say this about Idolatry "“Idolatry is not the use of images, but confusing them with what they represent, and in this respect mental images and lofty abstractions…

    It is this reader’s opinion, not only “Personal evangelizers” as you stated, should provoke one another, however all Christians (trained and equipped) should evangelize and provoke one another unto love and to good works” (Hebrews 10:24) as evangelicals who “look… to the Bible and personal experience of salvation through the sacrificial death of Christ. In the case, as you stated, where many share the value and want to witness but lack the confidence and example to follow, one must teach, train, and equip those who are capable of evangelizing right…

    The identity of the Christian church has become confused; the church is not the building people gather at on Sundays or holidays and it is not the denomination they belong to. Rather, the church transcends time, it is the totality of every believer ever. This misconception has lead to the rapid failure of the church today. Churches are becoming impersonal institutions that focus on their programs and attendance more than the people they are herding in. There is a serious lack of transformation and commitment in today's church. People are attending to find solutions to their life's issues not to fellowship with other believers. The sermons preached do not challenge the attendance or shake them up; it is designed to keep them comfortable. The church has become a dysfunctional family and these issues must be corrected or else the church will not be able to make more disciples. Today's society needs disciples desperately, but it is difficult to find depth in such a superficial world with many people who claim to be Christians but refuse to follow Christ. "When the majority of Christians are immature in their faith, is it any wonder few want to be Christians?" (Putman, 89). Evangelism is not the goal it is the first step in making new disciples. When the church…

    Thanks for taking the time to read my post, and for responding to my point of view. I completely agree with your comment on the need for wisdom. Jesus told the disciples, "I am sending you out like sheep among wolves. Therefore, be as shrewd as snakes and as innocent as doves.” Sometimes Christians believe that they should run at the first sign of trouble; however, Jesus sends us into darkness so His light in us can shine brightly amongst the non-believers. My absolute favorite passage of scripture is when Jesus engages the woman at the well because this is how He wants us to conduct ourselves. We cannot transform culture by abstaining from interaction with non-believers or win them over to Christ by acting just like them. Our witness…

    Today, Christians do not adhere to the Great Commission as Jesus commanded. Some of the disobedience comes from Believers not wanting to get discriminated against. In the high-tech culture, it should become more accessible to declare God’s Word to people worldwide. Sadly though, people care to much about how others will judge them instead of focusing on what God appointed them to do. Christ freely gives the power to evangelize and help overcoming the fears of sharing His Word. God’s people do not want persecution to fall on them, but they can be assured that when afflictions arise, the Heavenly Father remains present and strong to comfort them since He gives comfort (2Cornthians 1:3). Believers have a magnificent calling from God to fulfill.…

    The first principle in Jesus’ evangelism plan was selection. The objective of his plan and purpose was to teach a small group of twelve men. These men would in turn bear witness of His life on earth and continue His work by reaching the multitude. The men chosen by Jesus were not scribes and Pharisees. They were uneducated men with good hearts. Most importantly, they were teachable. Jesus selected a group small enough so that His work among them would be effective. “[T]he more concentrated the size of the group being taught, the greater the opportunity for effective instruction.”4…

    Jesus taught, and lead his disciples to go out and do the work of the Father. They went out teaching what he taught, two by two, winning the lost, healing the sick and rebuking demons. In teaching how to delegate his followers in preaching and teaching, he also opened doors for them to walk in their gifts. He has called us to be fishers of men, and we too are given assignments to follow, yet he did not call us to do it alone.…
