Hey guys,
This being the Christian Fellowship page, would it not be good to share different ways we can witness to others. If you have any ideas on ways to reach out to others please post these ideas. Maybe one of us will learn something constructive, myself included. I have some ideas of course. It is important to have love for others and a burden for souls. If you have no burden for souls it might be better not to try and win them at all. Before we can effectively witness to someone though, we must love people. I like to challenge myself to meet 3 new people every week, to help expand my influences. That’s 12 people in one month. Not only do I try and learn their name, but also a little something about them, so that every time I run into them, we can have something to talk about. That way I have a larger number of people my life can effect. Then when the time comes through prayer and fasting, I go on to talk to them about God or even teach them a Bible study. That is one way. I am looking for some others ways or methods of witnessing however. Please add some of your own ideas… |

Hi Guy,
U already have the best idea and really the only right idea on witnessing as above.
Question: Do you love yourself as all people and as all things?
Do you love all people and all things as yourself?
Is there any person or place or thing you hate?
See Matthew 25:35-45: Inasmuch as you do love the least or the greatest of these.....
Any Hate for yourself as any person is Hate for God and therefore auto-limits your witness for God who is Love. 1 John 4:8, 20.
In the Witness of Love for witnessing and for not witnessing,

Hi, Remember the old saying:
"Actions speak louder than words."
Let your actions speak loud enough, that when you do begin to witness to someone, that they know it's coming from your heart~

I was talking about organized out reach. I know about being an example. Are there any ideas about how a church can outreach, besides the normal door knocking, etc...
