Subject: Embracing Evangelism |
Bible Note: This is difficult subject and one a pastor must careful walk the tight rope when preaching. It is true many of the methods mentioned in the first paragraph aren't evangelism, but they do open doors so people will listen to the rest of the story. Jesus went to the sinners, He sat down with them, He listened to them, He even ate with them, He may of even heard an off color joke or sat beside a guy with a tattoo. What Jesus didn't do was mimic their life style. We have to allow the world into our churches to hear the truth, but we can not allow the world change our churches. Would Jesus use a Laser light show to draw people to listen to His message? I don't know but I think he might. But one thing I do know is the Jesus would never allow the Laser to define Him. This is where many of todays churches stumble instead of staying on course they allow these things to define them. The real problem is so many in pulpits today are compromised that they themselves many times don't know the truth to be able to preach it. |
