“You
are the light of the world. A
city set on a hill cannot be hidden.
Neither do people light a lamp
and put it under a bowl. Instead
they put it on its stand, and
it gives light to everyone in
the house. In the same way, let
your light shine before men…”
Matthew 5:14-16

What Is Evangelism?
Evangelism isn’t what
we do, it’s who we are.
Evangelism is God’s
act of working through
believers empowered by the Holy
Spirit to communicate the good
news of Jesus Christ
to every person with the purpose
to persuade the lost to come
to salvation.

- Acts of God…We confess
that salvation is of God.
He has taken the initiative,
while we were yet sinners,
to send Christ into the world.
He convicts people of sin
and convinces them of the
truth of Jesus Christ as the
only way of salvation.
- Gospel of Christ…Salvation
is due to Christ’s redemptive
work on the cross. He was
the sacrifice for sin and
was the first fruit of the
resurrection. Salvation is
due solely to the work of
Jesus Christ and is not based
on any form of human effort.
- Come to Salvation…Everyone
is commanded to repent toward
God and to place their faith
in Jesus Christ. Salvation
is appropriated by faith alone
and the only saving object
of Christian belief is Jesus
Christ.
