Thoughts On Evangelism

by on Apr.26, 2009, under God is Love, Spiritual Growth

This is a Good “Soap Box” Writing/Article written by: Sheila Gillespie – posted at www.raptureready.com

Excerpts from writing:

2 Corinthians 5:9 – 20: Therefore we make it our aim, whether present or absent, to be well pleasing to Him. For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive the things done in the body, according to what he has done, whether good or bad. Knowing, therefore, the terror of the Lord, we persuade men; For the love of Christ compels us, because we judge thus: that if One died for all, then all died; and He died for all, that those who live should live no longer for themselves, but for Him who died for them and rose again. Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new. Now all things are of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation, that is, God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not imputing their trespasses to them, and has committed to us the word of reconciliation. Now then, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were pleading through us: we implore you on Christ’s behalf, be reconciled to God.

Imagine seeing a group of firefighters polishing their engine outside a burning building with people trapped on the top floor! Nothing is wrong with cleaning a fire engine—but something is wrong with cleaning a fire engine while people are trapped in a burning building! Instead of ignoring their cries, the firefighters should have an overwhelming sense of urgency to rescue them. That’s the spirit that should be behind the task of evangelism. As I said before, only 2 percent of believers in America regularly share their faith with others.

Charles Spurgeon once said, “Have you no wish for others to be saved? Then you are not saved yourself. Be sure of that.”

Do you have an effective way to share the Gospel with everyone?

Oswald J. Smith said, “Oh my friends, we are loaded down with countless church activities, while the real work of the Church, that of evangelizing and winning the lost, is almost entirely neglected.”

The Bema Judgment Seat…..

by on Apr.20, 2009, under Bema Seat, End Times


The last message is really Good – Talks about Society at The End of The World. (Marks of Society/People At The End) – Life on Planet Earth in The Last Days:

2 Timothy 3:1-5
1 This know also, that in the last days Perilous Times shall come (Troubled Society, Grievous Times, Painful Times, Irritating Times) – {Toleration of Evil, Obsession of Personal Pleasure, Breakdown of The Family}
2 For men shall be:
– lovers of their own selves, (Selfishness) People only caring about self and not others.
– covetous, (Lovers of Money)
– boasters, (Braggers, Self Superiority, Inflated Ego’s)
– proud, (Look Down on Others, Arrogance)
– blasphemers, (Taking God and Jesus name in Vain)
– disobedient to parents, (prevelant mark of the last days)
– unthankful, (Happens with Evolution Teaching)
– unholy, (no Reverence for that which is Sacred)
3 Without natural affection, (no family loyalty – Parents With Children/Children with Parents – Abortion, Divorce) trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,
4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.

2 Timothy 4:3-4
3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;
4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.

2 Thessalonians 2:3
3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day (Armageddon) shall not come, except there come a falling away first, (Apostasy of The Church’s, Society? — The Rapture possibly too – The Taking of The Mark instead of Choosing Jesus) and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; (The Anti-Christ)

Jack Kinsella Omega Letter Editor

The Passover story is well known to Christians, primarily as a Jewish holiday. But the Jewish Passover is an integral part of the Christian story. Without Passover, there could be no salvation for the Gentiles.

Special Report: The ‘Defeated’ Christan

You’ve all seen him. The defeated Christian. The guy who tries and tries, but after being saved for thirty years, he still hasn’t quit smoking. Instead, he hides his cigarettes before coming to church and won’t get too close when shaking your hand for fear you’ll smell the smoke on him.
