  1. Personal Evangelism Fall, 2015

  2. Last week’s leftovers • Christian humble-bragging • Should we not praise God? • Attitude: drawing attention to self and appending with praise? • The blessings doctrine and false expectations • Is material wealth a blessing or a burden? • More suggestions • Offer to pray – be sure to follow up • Be involved with what’s happening at church • Be involved in a bible study – it’s a nice invitation

  3. Our Task • Who is/are the person/people you want to talk with about the Lord? • Are you setting a good example? • Have you shared your faith? • Are you ready to ask them questions?

  4. Take the next step Ask spiritual questions

  5. Some things to keep in mind…. • Find areas where you can agree. • If you ask a question, have a passage of scripture in mind to answer! • How do/does your question(s) fit with the bible study you have in mind?

  6. Questions • "I'm curious:  do you ever think about ___________________?" • "Who, in your opinion, is Jesus Christ?" • "What's your spiritual background?  Were you taught a particular religious perspective as you grew up?" • "Do you ever wonder what happens to us when we die?“ • “If you died tonight, where would your soul go?”

  7. More Questions • “Does God exist?” “Why/why not do you think God exists?” • “In your opinion, what is a real Christian?" • "Do you think most people are going to heaven?“ • “Does the Bible contain the word of God?” • “Is the Bible inspired?” • “Do you trust the Bible?”

  8. Still more questions…. • "How many times did you eat today?"  "How many times did you eat spiritual food?" • “Did you know that Christ is coming back?"  Quote 2 Thessalonians 1:6-10.  “That verse says that Jesus will take vengeance on them that obey not the gospel of our Lord.  The question is, have you obeyed the gospel?" • "Do you have to be baptized to be saved?"  Write “1 Peter 3:21” on a piece of paper. Hand it to them, "Check this out.  I'll catch up with you later."

  9. Take the final step Study the Bible

  10. Lots of options • Published studies that will guide us through what is necessary for salvation • Study a book like Mark or John or Acts • Come up with your own Bible study – Art • Do you have a plan?

  11. Study: “Who is Jesus?” • Who is Jesus? Hebrews 1:1-3 • What did He have to say? John 11:25-26 • What else? John 14:6 • How do we go through Him? John 20:30-31 • What’s next? Acts 2:38-39 • Why baptism? Romans 6:1-7 • How does it all fit together? Acts 8:26-39 • Why rejoice? 2 Corinthians 5:17, 21 • The invitation. Acts 22:16

  12. Create a notecard Bible study
