Schools of Thought in Evangelism

Ok there are 2 schools of thought.
From the way I see it.

1st School of Thought

We bring a friend to church by showing lots of care and concern. Focus on the friend and love him or her with all we've got. Lots of sacrifices.

The objective is to build a long lasting relationship. In the process, very tough and heart wrenching and lots of work.

And there is no guarantees that the friend will be planted in the house of God.

2nd School of Thought

We share the gospel with as many people as possible. In a way, it means taking as many shots as possible.

We hone our ability and anointing to share the gospel such that our sharing is effective. It leads the people to seek Jesus and pray the sinner's prayer.

The time taken is short and how far the process goes depends on how receptive the person is. This mostly ensures we reach the most receptive people first.

Its been shown the 2nd method works far better.
Basically a combination of both.

Some thoughts.
Do comment and give some opinions.
Especially those who haven been there done that and brought in souls for Jesus before.

Never go down

Some smart guy once said to Napoleon, "Fame is temporary."
To that statement, Napoleon answered, " Fame IS temporary, but obscurity(basically the direct opposite of fame) is ETERNAL."

Well I agree COMPLETELY with Napoleon.
I don't want to live a quiet life and die in silence.

I WILL NOT GO DOWN IN SILENCE!!

A Song..

You are my Shepherd.
There's nothing I want.
I rest in green pastures.
My soul is restored.
My path, it is righteous.
You are my guide.
The valley of shadows will cause me to hide.

You are always there for me.
You are the Shepherd of my heart and soul.
There for me.
You are the Lord of all I am.
Your unfailing love and mercy covers me.
Your unfailing love and mercy covers me.

I have a table that You have prepared.
Its cup overfowing,
Oil's on my head.
Your goodness and mercy, all of my days.
In Your house I stay.

You are always there for me.
You are the Shepherd of my heart and soul.
There for me.
You are the Lord of all I am.
Your unfailing love and mercy covers me.
Your unfailing love and mercy covers me.

You are my Shepherd and You walk with me.
You are my whole life and You give all I need.
You are the peace that makes me cose? and feel so free.
Your unfailing love and mercy covers me.

You are my Restorer and You heal my soul.
You make me able to stand right and whole.
You are my constant companion and, no matter where I go.
You put this heart inside me.
You put this heart inside me.

This heart..x4
So free...........x6


-----Prayerworks.

You are the consuming passion of my life.
You devour my entire life and You fill my thoughts.
My heart it pounds in fear of You.
Should You withhold, I will not breathe.
You give me all I need.
Whom shall I ask but You?
Where can I turn to but You?

But the good things You have not withheld from me.
Your blessings and approval You have not withheld from me.
Your chastening and rebuke You have not withheld from me.
that I might know that I am a son in Your house and not an outsider.

that I might know You and the power of Your resurrection and the fellowship of Your sufferings, being conformed to Your death. --- Phil 3:10

O Hades, where is your sting?
