Successful Evangelism is
1) Presenting the gospel
2) in the Spirit
3) and leaving the results to God
The body of Christ (the Church) works to rescue people from sin.
-The body does work (John 10 – Jesus bringing in his flock)
-spiritual gifts (Eph. 4) – evangelists and equipping all the saints
-speech (col 4:6, eph 5:16)
-love for each other (john 17:20, 21)
-being enjoyable and culturally sensitive to outsiders so that the doctrine looks good (Tit. 2:1-10)
-grace present in the Church through the Spirit’s working (Heb. 6)
-suffering (1 peter 4:13-; Col. 1:24-)
-the word spoken! (eph 4:15, 2 tim 4:1-4)
Practical Application
-parties(!)
-invitiation (including in ministry mode!)
-bible studies/cru/church
-how we lead and teach bible studies(!)
