PREFACE SUMMARY

This message came about when I was invited as a guest speaker in the Recognition and Appreciation of Evangelists and Missionaries at the Aristocrat Restaurant with the Manila Body of Christ Council of Elders in Partnership with the Association of Evangelists Global Network Philippines, Inc.

Beloved, I was asked to prepare a twenty to thirty-minute message for pastors and evangelists worldwide on the power of evangelism. While thinking and praying on the request, the Lord showed me a vision of a number 2 yellow pencil like the ones commonly used in schools.

I instantly understood the message He was showing me in the vision, for I purposely made it a point to carry those pencils with me in my big truck, especially in the winter months of the year. This vision awakened my thoughts on presenting the Gospel, the most significant news on earth, to a troubled and confused world searching for answers and a reason to live.

The Great Commission tells us to go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. This emphasizes the importance of understanding the actual value and characteristics of what one is presenting before confidently doing so.

To illustrate this point, I had my wife issue one hundred number 2 yellow pencils to most of the event's pastors and evangelists sitting at their assigned tables, and as I asked each of the ministers to hold up and look at their pencil, I began to share my journey of battling severe mental health issues which lasted for more than seven years.

I informed them that during this challenging period, I experienced divine interventions in the form of human Angels, which played a significant role in my recovery. After many years, I regained my sanity and pursued a ministry that has positively impacted people worldwide.

To summarize, I went on to inform them that after finding my way back to a loving God, I made the decision to dedicate myself to a life-changing ministry that aimed to win over the lost at any cost. After suffering through my wilderness experience, I learned firsthand the transformative power of the gospel, which made a positive change in my life and is able to change a life for eternity.

"SIX POWERFUL METHODS FOR EVANGELISM."

Beloved, the effectiveness of evangelism lies in its ability to reach out to a hurting, confused world in search of answers and a reason to live. As children of God, we have the presence of the Holy Spirit, who enables us to believe in what we present.

1. "Evangelism is the means to fulfill the Great Commission."

(Matthew 16:15) instructs devoted followers of Christ concerning sharing the gospel message and its teachings with fervent prayer to win over non-believers, and once they are converted, they should be baptized in water as a visible symbol of the transformation that has taken place in their lives.

The Great Commission is an essential commandment that we should all obey. As followers of Christ, we have been called to share the good news of salvation with all people, understanding that our efforts, working under the guidance and power of the Holy Spirit, will make a difference in the lives of others.

In summary, the Gospel has the power to transform society. As it changes individuals, it can lead to significant improvements in our cities, our churches, our communities, and our government. This would result in a society with less wrongdoing and more positivity, where justice reigns and everyone strives to live a better, more fulfilled life.

2. "Evangelism is an open door to share our faith."

Evangelization is not just about converting people to Christianity. Still, it is an open door to share the Good News of Jesus Christ so that people can experience healing, forgiveness, and experience the joy of knowing him as savior.

There are many ways to share our faith with others, such as giving our personal testimony of how Jesus transformed our lives or inviting them to a church or Bible study. Still, the best thing is to set a good example through our actions and words, trusting that God will use us to reach others for His glory and their salvation.
