Personal evangelism is something all can do NOW. Every church should be deeply concerned about its efforts to reach the lost. But so few of us in the church are concerned enough about trying to reach the lost NOW! In personal evangelism we do not have to wait for the lost to come to us. We do not have to wait for our next gospel meeting, or until we hire another preacher, or begin a radio program. Besides, our prospects probably will not come to us if we wait. They may not attend the gospel meeting when we have it, they may not like the new preacher, and they may not listen to our radio program! In fact, the only guarantee we have that they will be taught the truth is for us to teach them ourselves and to teach them NOW! Personal evangelism alone makes this possible. . •Culled from Truth Magazine(walton weaver) 23/09/1971 . . @celestial_diary @ccchepzibahcathedral . . #weintheccc #sermoner #evangelism #evangelising #christians #bell #christianity #JesusChrist #omocele #church #believers #preach #christ #christianblogger #tuesdaymotivation #tuesdayvibes #motivation #note https://www.instagram.com/p/B7SoArhBwhw/?igshid=1fc5f91i8vlsl

PLEASE READ; Personal evangelism is for every christian. This is demonstrated by the example of the Jerusalem church. "They therefore that were scattered abroad went about preaching the word" (Acts 8:4). It was not the apostles who went, for they remained in Jerusalem (Acts 8: 1). It was the "men and women" who made up the church in Jerusalem (Acts 8:3), and were able to escape the brutal hand of the persecuting Saul of Tarsus, who went about preaching the word. Every Christian, including women, can teach the word to other individuals (i.e., Priscilla and Aquila, Acts 18:24-28), but not all can preach the word publicly (i.e., women have certain limitations, I Tim. 2:12-14; 1 Cor. 14:34-35). Furthermore, not even all the men of a local church can preach in the public assembly. The very nature of the teaching arrangement itself makes this impossible, and the abilities required for public preaching exclude many others. On the other hand, in personal evangelism every member of the church can be teaching privately at the same time; and this is a type of evangelism that does not require the special abilities which public preaching demands. The fact that all Christians can do personal evangelism does not mean that all will be equally skillful or successful. It does mean, however, that this approach provides an opportunity for every member to function according to the various abilities each member has. Each person can do this work in his own individual way, and according to his own ability, and accomplish much good for the cause of Christ. . •Culled from Truth Magazine(walton weaver) 23/09/1971 . . @celestial_diary @ccchepzibahcathedral . . #weintheccc #sermoner #evangelism #evangelising #christians #bell #christianity #JesusChrist #omocele #church #believers #preach #christ #christianblogger #fridaymotivation #fridayvibes #motivation #note #photooftheday #manoftheGod #congregation #bible #preacher #tgif #pastor https://www.instagram.com/p/B7aTR-Xhu2V/?igshid=1db3dvkua8m4a
