Doing Discipleship & Evangelism the Right Way Acts 15:36-16:10 August 18, 2019

The Right Passion

Romans 15:20 (ESV) and thus I make it my ambition to preach the gospel, not where Christ has already been named, lest I build on someone else’s foundation,

The Right Priority

Colossians 1:28 (ESV) Him we proclaim, warning everyone and teaching everyone with all wisdom, that we may present everyone mature in Christ.

The Right Personnel

The Right Precautions

1 Corinthians 9:19-22 (ESV) For though I am free from all, I have made myself a servant to all, that I might win more of them. To the Jews I became as a Jew, in order to win Jews. To those under the law I became as one under the law (though not being myself under the law) that I might win those under the law. To those outside the law I became as one outside the law (not being outside the law of God but under the law of Christ) that I might win those outside the law. To the weak I became weak, that I might win the weak. I have become all things to all people, that by all means I might save some.
