  12. The Process 1. Few people are saved without contact and physical association with a good Christian! It all starts with you. Don’t isolate yourself.Watch your example, language & influence!

  13. The Process 2. Few people are saved without a Christian making a gentle introduction of a religious value! You have to introduce it. You can’t wait for them to introduce a religious discussion! Improve your recommendations & touches.

  14. The Process 3. Few people around you are saved without the good impact of your example, spirit and life.Be a good, warm, loving Christian!Remember that you are the rare bridge into their very urban world.

  15. The Process 4. Prospects will have to go through a period of observation, checking, testing and even challenging.Don’t be surprised, or discouraged. Expect doubt! Respond carefully and wisely. Get help with your response!

  16. The Process 5. Moral Certification has to come. It is a most important stage! It is when they decide that you and your brethren are genuine. Yet not much will happen until a “need” is realized!

  17. The Process 6. Few people act until a sense of “need”, that is strong enough to create desire, develops! It is hard for a Christian to always create a sense of need. Sometime you have to wait until providence shows them their need.

  18. The Process 7. Once “certification” and “need” are there, it is time to move quickly to the Word and to a study.Casually paint the picture of looking at a few verses of scripture together

  19. The Process 8. The excitement of a prospect, the Word, and a study is a strong and happy emotion. The flame of evangelism is lit!If you don’t feel you can teach it, you can sit in while someone else asks the questions and turns the pages.
