LEARN TO USE THE THREE TYPES OF EVANGELISM (PPP)
The three types of evangelism can easily be remembered by the 3P’s.
These three P’s stand for the following.
A. Presence
B. Proclamation
C. Persuasion
Let’s take a look at each P represented above.
I. PRESENCE EVANGELISM
Presence, how do you present yourself to non-believers and those in your sphere of influence? One way Christians evangelize is by living a life that Honors God the Father, a life that reflects the attitudes of Jesus a life that testifies and bear fruit. Know this we are living epistles that are read by men. As Christians we should be living a distinctly different way than the unbeliever. Presence evangelism also includes sharing your personal testimony. Share what Jesus has done in your life, what was your turning point , what did he rescue you from. Lift Jesus up
Presence evangelism in the home is wives being submissive to your own husband, husbands loving their own wives like Christ love the church.
Presence evangelism is showing love to your un-saved family members even though when you hate their sin.
Presence evangelism at work is working to the glory of God.
Presence evangelism at work is not taking a forty-five minute lunch break like your coworkers when you all are only authorized for thirty.
Presence evangelism in the community is when we go to the City Mission feeding the hungry in the name of Jesus.
Presence evangelism in the community by giving out blankets to the homeless in the cold winter months.
Presence evangelism in the community is when we provided help to those who are in need.
Presence evangelism is the adopt a family program.
Presence evangelism is living a Godly life, Presence evangelism is mission work/charity.
Presence evangelism is acts of kindness. Presence evangelism is meeting a need and making a friend which will spring board you into the next proclamation and persuasion..
Please note this if a man is hungry how can he hear the gospel over his roaring belly. How can he know God is love when a child of God won’t even give him a slice of bread?
II. PROCLAMATION EVANGELISM
Proclamation evangelism. Making the gospel available. making it known. Declaring it, Teaching or preaching it. Proclamation evangelism is just that proclaiming the Word of God. Proclaiming the Gospel will not always result in winning a soul. Some will plant some will water but God will give the increase. (I Cor3:6) Just Simply Proclaim the Gospel in the power of the Holy Ghost and let God do the rest.
Ways we can proclaim the gospel.
Passing out tracts, writing letters, giving out films, tapes, and giving out Bibles; however the most effective way is just proclaim it
III. PERSUASION EVANGELISM
Making disciples winning souls to Christ. Persuading the unbeliever to give their lives to Christ. Be wise win a soul by proclaiming and persuading.
Examples of persuasion evangelism
2 Cor 5:11 Acts 18 :4 as well as the Altar call.
We must live the life (presence) to win a hearing (proclamation) once the Gospel is heard and understood we can ask for a decision (persuasion).
Evangelism is giving the dead life helping the blind to see. Don’t let fear stop you analyze the cause of your fear and overcome by using the scriptures provided today Pray for power from on high. Press on, cultivate the ability to forget your defects. Don’t be discouraged if you didn’t get a decision remember you have sown the seed. Fear is a serious handicap in Christian service but it is our duty as well as our privilege to overcome it by believing and trusting God. Let God Be God and you be the vessel. Yield yourself so that the Holy Ghost can flow through you on the job, in your home, or where ever you may be, Just Yield.
As Christians we must be obedient to Matthew 28:19. Take a minute to really think about it how obedient are you? Choose today to be yielded and obedient.
Utilize the three types of evangelism make evangelism your life style.
