WHAT EVANGELISM IS ... AND ISN'T!!

WHAT EVANGELISM IS ... AND ISN'T!!
By:  Jensine Bard © March 7, 2024

During my last couple of trips in the Air and On the Ground The (National Gathering For Prayer and Repentance - Held at the Magnificent Museum of the Bible - Washington, D.C.) and more recently: The National Religious Broadcasters ( NRB Christian Media Convention ) - Held at the Beautiful Opryland Gaylord Resort in Nashville) - ONE thing is very CLEAR!! People everywhere ... and of EVERY ethnicity are HUNGRY for God, NEEDING Answers ... and there is YOU and ME ... placed before them ... SO NOW WHAT? Well, I will tell you - it's not complicated, not something to dread, worry or fret about ... SHARING the HOPE that is in you and I as BELIEVERS in Christ Jesus - should be as easy as "drinking a glass of water" ... WHY? Because the "pressure to perform" or "say the right words" is NEVER on US ... WHEN we are walking and living and empowered of HIS HOLY SPIRIT ... WHO tells us not to worry about what we will say - when asked for the ANSWER that lies within us ... which is THE TRUTH OF THE SAVING, HEALING, DELIVERING and POWERFUL HOPE of the GOSPEL of JESUS CHRIST! YESHUA ... OUR MESSIAH ... and SOON COMING KING!

WHAT COMPELS US TO SHARE (OR, AT LEAST, WHAT SHOULD?):

1) THE LOVE of GOD shed abroad in our hearts - which TRANSLATES to a LOVE for PEOPLE …Not their "sins" - but THEM!

2) THE ANOINTING of the HOLY SPIRIT - which gives us the WISDOM, BOLDNESS and DISCERNMENT to "say and do" that "next thing"

3) A LISTENING and COMPASSIONATE ear ... ASK QUESTIONS, be genuinely interested. SOMETIMES just THAT is ALL that is needed to "open up a closed flower" that needs watering and a little SUN (SON) to shine.

4) GET INFORMED on ISSUES of the DAY - Culturally, Socially, Economically and in Every way ... In other words, "Don't put your head in the sand - waiting for Jesus to come" ... He's not down there anyway, LOL!

5) KNOW that your limitations and mind .... NEVER limit GOD. For it is HIM - the Holy Spirit that DRAWS all men unto himself. Like low hanging fruit rolling toward us!!

6) Be HOSPITABLE and GENEROUS ... When Dining out ... leave a good tip ... HONORING those that are serving you. Nothing worse than a "cheap" or "stingy" self-professing "Christian" .... How is that Christ-like?

7) BE INTERESTED and AWARE of your surroundings ... GOD will be BRING them - if you are FAITHFUL to engage WHEN the opportunity presents itself – and it almost always does!

8) REST in knowing that, in the end, WE ARE ALL FARMERS ... planting the "seed" - while others come along and water - and some get the privilege of "harvesting" ... leading that ONE to JESUS for All eternity.

THE RIGHTEOUS ARE AS A BOLD AS A LION
(Proverbs 28:1)
BE THAT FOR HIM
(IN WHOSE “RIGHTEOUSNESS” WE STAND!)
AND THAT ONE NEEDING HIM!!
