| Evangelism is absolutely necessary! It is a mandate that Christ left with the church. Matthew 28:19-20 is the church’s mandate to evangelize. A good model for Church Evangelism is Acts 24, 41, and 47. The definition of evangelism is: “Making known the good news of Jesus Christ to a dying world.” A more formal definition is, “Evangelism… the verbal and visible declaration of the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ for the sis of mankind, done with the intent of leading people to salvation.” Clearly, the scriptures teach us that we are to be witnesses. We are to lead the lost to Christ. We are to share the good news of the gospel. Thus, my vision for Evangelism is to witness, share the gospel with 20,000 souls, with the intent to win 2,000 souls.
With much prayer and strong commitment to the Word of God, this vision will come to fruition.
