    Evangelism 2

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Oct 1, 2013
     | 3,815 views

    What is our motivation for evangelism? Are we safe in our "cocoon" of personal salvation or do we see the lost people of the world as those who are truly in danger of an eternity without the Lord?

    Last Sunday we took a look at some of the attitudes we need and which we might encounter as we seek to tell others about the salvation that can only be found in Jesus Christ. We need to be ready for some “push back” - preconceived ideas We need to be ready to engage the “down and ...read more

    Praying For Others Series

    Sometimes we wonder how to pray for missionaries and other leaders we have never met. Paul had never met the Colossians, but he faithfully prayed for them. His prayers teach us how to pray for others, whether we know them or not.

    COLOSSIANS 1: 9-12 PRAYING FOR OTHERS [Ezekiel 22:30] Every Christian can minister directly to the spiritual well-being of other believers without seeing or speaking to them. We can play a role in their spiritual growth, and even secure God's blessings for them. Intercessory pray accomplishes ...read more

    A little church like ours can have a big impact if we trust the Savior, love the saints, and put our hope in the certainty of the Gospel.

    As a church leader, I am often challenged by the question: If our church would cease to exist, how much would the community really miss us? In other words, What kind of contribution are we making to the Washington Island community? Well, a professor at the University of Pennsylvania actually ...read more

    The gospel transmitted to us is the most significant message ever given to man. It’s ability to transform the lives of those who by faith accept it as true and live in its truth cannot be overstated.

    Paul commends and counsels the Colossians on spiritual maturity.

    Last time, we made saw how Paul wrote to the Colossians to counter an error promoted by false teachers who denied the deity of Jesus.
