  1. Evangelism One by Pastor Dan Domke Evangelism The First Love of the Church.

  2. A look at the Revelation – What does Jesus say about evangelism to the Ephesians?

  3. Did you bring your bibles?

  4. Ephesus: Rev. 2 V. 4 4 Yet I hold this against you: You have forsaken your first love. But! “You Left your first love!" Remember this applied to them and to us the church as a whole. It may not or it may apply to us in general or even specially! Your first love - was for God! You have not kept Him first in your life. First commandment issue. This is the most important thing in our lives; love for God, first! All other of the sins listed by Jesus to the Ephesians follow! These sins follow from a weakening of love for God! The Churches First Love

  5. T h e S i l e n c e Another problem is that we’ve bought into the postmodern, relativistic philosophy that all religion is the same and created by man in his own imagination. Or, we as a congregation we are turned inward and we are more about keeping the status quo, surviving, and afraid of the change new people will ultimately bring with them, than we are concerning about saving souls. The biggest reason for ‘silence’ is that we are not convinced that there is a hell, that God will punish the sinner and the sin. And we are not convinced that the bible is really true. • Fear of being asked what you believe. B. Fear of not knowing the answer to questions asked. C. Fear of breaking the cardinal rule that you never speak about religion and politics. D. Fear of being accused of pushing your religion. E. Fear of making someone uncomfortable.

  7. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7JHS8adO3M&feature=bz303 What might come of a simple act of witness.

  8. The word witness comes from the Word – Martyr. One who is an eye witness to a event. Acts 1: 8 W i t n e s s Who did the action? E v a n g e l i s m J e s u s C h r i s t EV ANGEL ISM Eu = good Angel = message Suffix to form action nouns like Evangelism, Baptism, etc Evangelism is a Good Message in action. The good news is that Jesus died on the cross to forgive our sin. A good message in action. Evangelism is a word when broken down into its Greek parts means Good Message. T h i s i s t h e G o s p e l

  9. The Church Proclaims the action…what is it we proclaim? E v a n g e l i s m T h e G o s p e l

  25. The terms “to confess and “confession” have rich Biblical meaning. Discuss the significance of the following passages: Matthew 10:32 (Confession is an important part of the Christian’s relationship to Christ and response to the same.) Acts 24:14 (The Apostle Paul is a fine example of confessing the Christian faith.) Confessional Evangelism

  26. 1 John 1:8-9 (The confession of sins is an important part of the Christian’s everyday life.) 1 John 3:2, 15 (Confessing Christ as true man and true God is important. Note the wonderful promise connected with this doctrine.) Confessional Evangelism

  27. The Lutheran Reformers recognized the importance of this Biblical term. In the “Epitome to the Formula of Concord” alone the term “confess” (or one of its forms) is used no less than forty times. It either stands alone as a synonym for “teach” (S.A. Part III. I) or is used in the bold and powerful phrase: “We believe, teach and confess” (Epitome Article I - VII and X). In short, each time the term is used it signals the correct exposition of a Biblical truth. Confessional Evangelism
