Ivangelis Evangelistic Ministry

In their book, The Great Commission to Worship, Vernon Whaley and David Wheeler takes an in depth look at commandment from Jesus for His followers to go out and spread the Good News of salvation. Today’s Christian seems to have a misconception about their role in evangelism. As the authors stated, “many times in Scripture it appears

(189) If congregants give negative feedback about a preacher/speaker's teaching/preaching is because they did not understand the sermon or the sermon was long with no substance. Anderson proclaims that the pastor is a steward over the people salvation and do not stand between their relationship with them and God. However, he/she corrects and lead/prepare them for the coming Christ. (204) Preparing the congregants about the coming of Christ is not to teach/preach about self-righteous doctrines. The doctrine of self is not the way, the truth and the life. Anderson also states after a church has been spiritual abused, they can recover through reconciliation. (212) For this to happen, the pastor needs to come forth and admitt his selfishness, and arrogance and apologize to the church and to the ones that left so that healing can begin, and the people will not walk around harboring bitterness and regret.

Response: “Alan Potter (2014) wrote that John MacArthur warned us that if we lose the biblical foundation while preaching this will lead to the decline of preaching which will contribute to the weakness and worldliness of the church, so for a church to be spiritual healthy, preaching should return to its proper biblical foundation (https://www.linkedin.com). Paul told Timothy that by preaching the Scripture, man and women could be wise for salvation (2 Tim. 3:15 NKJV). They learn the way of salvation through the Bible which the Holy Spirit taught the preacher to use, they should not use their own words dictated by man’s wisdom (1 Corinth. 2: 13

I think Church’s have major responsibilities to communicate the gospel message. We need to remember that it was God’s kindness that saved us. Church’s shouldn’t focus too much

Throughout human history, our ancestors lived out the Christian faith in their generation. As a result, the faith passed down into their children’s generations, continuously reaching today’s generation. Then, our society changed from a primitive society to a modern society. With the invention of technology, it creates a new direction towards spreading the Gospel. While our ancestors spoke and wrote Gospel in church, my generation use technology to share the Gospel on social media and Bible apps. With the different styles of preaching the Gospel, how can we unite our generations to pursuit God’s purpose?

There are many ways Christians can share the gospel with those around them. One way is the Dare 2 Share Live that is happening on October 13th, 2018. This event was created to mobilize some 25,000 teenagers in their own communities. It will be from coast-to-coast and include encompass 100 different cities. The purpose is to equip these teens to go out and share the good news of Jesus with their classmates and friends. Equipping teens themselves to reach their peers makes the most sense as they are the ones who have the opportunity to share Christ's love with those around them day in and day out.

Living life as a Christian, in many ways is difficult in that there is always a war being fought by the enemy for your faith. Dickson insists that, “there are clear New Testament passages urging us all to speak up for Christ when we can” (Dickson, 101). Christians are called to a life of spreading the gospel to all mankind and nations. Dickson urges that the gospel is the announcement of our King coming to make all things new again. Christian’s are called by Jesus Himself to spread this news and work of God’s anointed King and messiah Jesus! The main nugget Christians should take from this is how everyone is not an evangelists, however, Christians are clearly called to proclaim Christ from our lips as well as

Comprised of fourteen chapters, the authors are explicit in readers comprehending this as a guide rather than a fix-all in turning around their churches. One chapter or section will not facilitate a change, rather a sequence of habits and efforts. Comprised of a large volume of statistical data, the facts remain constant; declining or plateaued churches can rebound. However, it will require change, change from the pulpit to the pews. Beginning with “0” or foundation, there are six criteria that should exist in all biblical churches, and are prominently and frequently mentioned in Scripture [2]: (1) Scriptural authority; (2) Biblical leadership; (3) Preaching and teaching; (4) Ordinances; (5) Covenant community; and (6) Mission. Additionally, the foundation emphasizes the need of becoming a

My vision for evangelism is denying self to serve and be reflection of Jesus as I minister and love others. I would like those attributes to be a part of my daily life and walk in the fruit of the Spirit so, that other people will feel the love of God. I have gained so much knowledge from this course that I can take what I have learned and apply it in my own life to become a better person and to help others. In my Christian walk, my vision is to look for ways to be a blessing to others and to make an impact in my family and community. Also, ministering the word of faith thereby, changing mindsets and lives. Therefore, to help equip the believer so that it will cause them to live according to the word of God. However, there are a few changes I feel that I need to make in my life to be more effective as

As a church, we believe in the great commission found in Matthew 28, “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit”. It is essential for us to reach out to our community, but first

Go ye into all the world and preach the gospel to every nation. (Mark 16:15)

Pastor Gardner C. Taylor thinks the reason why preachers stay away from talking about Jesus Christ to their congregations is because it takes away from the highlight of them profiting off the weak minded people and focuses on the similarities we have, that

What we are speaking, may even be all fact-based, but most the time it is partially fact-based because we have not considered God's opinion on the matter. We need to ask ourselves, do we speak things that make ourselves feel better about our own strengths? Could it be that our words are self-serving opinions to try

Christians are commanded in the Bible to take the gospel into all the world. God desires that all people know Him. However, since He is in heaven and not on the earth now, it is up to His people to show others the way to Him. Much of that testimony for Christ is through the way Christians lives are lived. It is well known that

This course has had a great impact on my walk with Christ as well as my witness for Christ. I pastor a church and teach two classes and for me I thought that I was doing plenty. However this course has helped rekindle my passion for sharing Jesus Christ with people through personal evangelism. This paper will demonstrate what I have learned throughout this course.
