How to Tell the World About Jesus

Posted on 19 Apr 2020, Pastor: Rev. Derek Geldart

I was watching the news this morning and in bold, highlighted colors the worldwide meter of COVID-19 cases has now hit over 2.1 million with about 150 thousand deaths! The world is frantically seeking to develop a vaccine and a cure for this deadly disease. Canada for example has devoted 275 million and United States 1.25 billion to do research on this disease! If you developed a cure for this disease would you not share it with the world? Would you not go on every news station, travel across the globe and Facebook everyone how to be saved from this deadly disease? Absolutely, yes! Let me tell you a statistic about a disease far more deadly than COVID-19. Approximately 2/3rds or over 5 billion people of this world are not Christian and face an eternity in hell where excruciating pain never ceases due to a disease called sin. The Good News is that while everyone is affected by this disease the cure is known and available to all who will believe in Jesus Christ! Since we as Christians have the cure why do we devote a mere 1 percent of our tithe to evangelism? There are many reasons the chief of which is that this world is skeptical and dare I say hostile to believing in a single God, especially when that god is not self! The following sermon is going to review how Paul and Silas were able to effectively evangelise to the hostile people of their time in hope that we might learn and apply their proven techniques to evangelising the unsaved of our generation.
