Cross Training IV –Natural Mode Evangelism
Natural mode – Taking the initiative in already established relationships to tell people the gospel.
Successful Evangelism is…
1) Presenting the gospel
2) in the Spirit
3) leaving the results to God
Implications – you won’t screw up their salvation; you need to be ok with them not being saved, you don’t have to answer all their objections – sin’s their problem
Tips
1. Be excited about Jesus/the gospel
by being in the means of grace
2. Be bold about your activities
3. Let invitations lead to conversations
4. Ask about their backgrounds , experiences , and current beliefs
5. If they ask a why question, say something like well, it’s kind of involved with what I believe – so to explain why, I have to explain what I believe. Is that okay?
6. Ask for their permission
7. Tell them that spiritual things are important to you and ask if you can have a conversation about those things
8. Use the Kennedy Questions (1 - If you were to die today, and God said, "Why should I let you into heaven?" What would you say? 2 - Based on your answer, how sure are you, 0-100%, that he'd let you in?)
9. Learn to draw the Two Ways to Live and memorize the verses
10. Learn to share your testimony
