Be kind to all people.

what
thank have ye? for sinners also do even the same.
3. Win
them.
a. 1 Cor 9:22 To the weak became I as weak, that I might gain
the
weak: I am made all things to all men, that I might by all means
save
some.
Evangelism
- 1: the winning or
revival of personal commitments to Christ 2: militant or
crusading zeal
1.
The word go is in the New
Testament 252 times.
2.
Luke 14:23 And the lord
said unto the servant, Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel
them to come in, that my house may be filled.
The test of Evangelism is “who am I
telling what God has done for me”. Could it be that many of us lack
the power promised us simply because we fail to tell others about it.
Be real; tell about your life, what God has done in your life. It is
easy to determine when something is aflame. It ignites other material.
Any fire that does not spread will eventually go out. A church without
evangelism is a contradiction in terms; just as a fire that does not
burn is a contradiction.
