SHARING YOUR FAITH

 

 

STEP 1 - THE APPROACH

 

QUESTIONS TO ASK -

1.  Do you have any kind of spiritual belief?

2.  To you, who is Jesus?

3.  Do you think there is a heaven and a hell?

4.  If you died right now, where would you go?

5.  If what you believe were not true, would you want to know it?

6.  Do you go to church anywhere?

 

STEP 2 - THE BIBLE

 

1.  ROMANS 3:23

2.  ROMANS 6:23

3.  JOHN 3:3

4.  JOHN 14:6

5.  ROMANS 10: 9-11

6.  REVELATION 3:20

 

1^st Principle -  ROMANS 10:17   Faith Comes by Hearing

 

2^nd Principle -  LUKE 10: 26       What Does It Say To You?

 

STEP 3 - THE CLOSE

 

1.  Are you a sinner?

2.  Do you want forgiveness of sins?

3.  Do you believe Jesus died on the cross for you and rose again?

4.  Are you willing to surrender yourself to Christ?

5.  Are you ready to invite Jesus into your heart and into your life?

 

PRAYER - Father, Thank you for the free gift of eternal life.  I know I am a sinner and need your forgiveness.  I am sorry for my past sins, and I ask you to forgive me.

Jesus, I believe You died on the cross for my sins and arose from the dead.  I now open the door of my heart and invite You to come into my life.  I realize there is nothing I can do to earn my salvation, and I place my complete trust in You alone for eternal life.  I choose to follow You as my Lord.  Please make me the person You want me to be.

 

DEALING WITH OBJECTIONS - The key word to remember is WHY

 

People will say:

1.  I=m not ready.

2.  I have to think about it.

3. I have always believed in God.

4.  My friends will think I=m crazy.

5. Other religions tell me that I need to work my way into heaven.

6.  Will God want me to quit drinking and start going to church?

7.  How could God send anyone to hell?

8.  There=s error in the Bible

9.  Aren=t there many translations of the Bible?

10.  How do you know the Bible is true?

 

***** Those that don=t believe the Bible - What would it take to prove to you that it is God=s Word?
