From time to time, we should be reminded of why we do (or should do) certain things in our Christian lives. We have recently posted, again, a list of reasons for pursuing holiness in our walk with the Lord. Today, we would like to share a bullet-point list of why we should tell others about Christ, also known as "evangelism." Why should we evangelize?
- For our God’s glory
- The Lord’s Great Commission
- It is commanded specifically throughout the New Testament as well as assumed in all the letters
- To save others from the wrath to come
- To save others from the pollution and devastation of the present wicked age
- To give others hope for the future
- To represent our Lord and Savior
- Principle from Jesus: It is more blessed to give than to receive
- Out of godly love and compassion
- We just can’t help it!
