Evangelist - you've defined contact evangelism and effectiveness; what you haven't defined or explained--or more importantly, contrasted--is friendship evangelism. Also, I feel I must point out, you've started out with a faulty premise in terms of how you've named this thread: vs Why "versus"...

I can wait. Or we can take it a piece at a time, which would be better. Maybe we can both learn something in the process. But I'd like you to start by declaring YOUR position regarding "contact evangelism," and then defending it.

Absolutely not. Can you provide the case the author uses, and defend it -- from scripture, not from his book?

And there's the "read this book" defense again. John, you'd be taken a LOT more seriously, and given a LOT less grief, if you'd use scripture and defend your positions/views, instead of not defending them and resorting to "read so-and-so's book."

How would you reach these people?

Guess Evan's not gonna answer my question.

You do realize, of course, that in this case -- the "counsel" to which you refer was a gunshot? Are you really saying "a wise man is he who changes his mind after being shot for what he believes"?

Why does that matter? Are you saying he deserved to be shot?

I asked in the other thread, but never received a response; so let me ask this in a different way: Evan, how are you measuring "popular"? Are you measuring it by how many people took one? Or by how many people took one and, once they realized it wasn't a $1or $1,000,000 bill, didn't throw it...

BB - I agree that it's a smear. BUT--perhaps it's a necessary smear. Note: I'm not a Trump fan. When a rodeo clown wore an Obama mask, he was villified by the left. He was not supported by the majority of the right. But when Kathy Giffen pretends to behead Trump; when a play depicts the...

What about my question?

You indicate that tract was the most "popular" because it was the same color as money; you suppose people were more drawn to it because they thought it might be actual money?

Heard a radio talk show host make a comment - between Kathy Giffen beheading Trump, and the latest play assassinating Trump ... the democrats are mentally "training" their supporters to actually assassinate Trump....

While I don't necessarily agree with avoiding events ... let's not forget that friendship evangelism is evangelism, so technically they're doing some evangelism. If you disagree, you're forgetting 1 Cor 12:12 and Rom 12:4-5. There isn't only one form of evangelism; we shouldn't nay-say or avoid...

You chose this church because it was calvinistic; yet, it doesn't do evangelism, or at least it doesn't do it in the manner you would prefer. Are they not doing evangelism because they believe God has already chosen His elect, and therefore no more work is required? (thus making them...

Van, that was a silly comment. Of course it means advocate, as he indicated it was his preferred choice; and ALL of us advocate our preferred choices.

That has never been in question, by calvinist or arminian.

Also, Yeshua, I'm still waiting on an answer from you regarding post #9 in this thread.

Um...no. Armenia is a country; Armenians are citizens of that country. Thus, are we talking about a theology held by armenian citizens? You're referring to arminians, so-called because of their alleged adherence to the writings of Jacob Arminius. As already explained: Correct spelling is...
