    John provides a description of an time proven evangelistic process. (I borrowed part of the introduction from a Sermon Central contributer. Thank you.)

    Introduction I. In the gospel of John, chapter 3 and verse 30, speaking of Christ, John the Baptist will say, “He must increase, but I must decrease.” A.

    What made Peter different from other men, that people fell dead before him, that his shadow healed the sick, that 1,000s were saved when he preached? It was his intimate exposure to Jesus and his aligning himself with the purposes of God.

    Number 36 in an on-going sermon series from the Gospel of John. In this sermon we look at true worship, and how true worship appears foolishly costly to the worldly minded, but to Christians there is no cost too high.
