Not for me. My goal is to live my life as well as I can, offer a helping hand where it's needed, and leave other people's beliefs strictly alone. It is not my place to tell others what to believe.

Evangelizm is one of the 5 ministries Jesus calls men & women to: Ephesians4:10+, He (Lord Jesus) that descended is the same also that ascended up far above all heavens, that he might fill all things. And He gave some, apostles & some prophets & some evangelists & some pastors & teachers. Fort the perfecting of the Saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ. Till we all come in the unity of the faith & of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Chirst.
Evangelizing is to tell others the Gospel. The foundational message. Or is that being an apostle? Who is the greatest example of an Evangelist alive on earth today?
So? I don't know where I fit in to these 5 ministries. As I have been gifted in wisdom, knowledge, understanding, tongues, prophetic, etc. But the gifts aren't the ministries. But I haven't really been called to an office of the 5 fold ministry. So? Maybe I have somehow. The Lord will have to make it more clear to me. I just remembered that the Lord has called me a Teacher & a Leader before prophetically. So? But people don't want to listen to me at least in the past. But then I am a leader & teacher to my Children & Grandchildren. Just last night the Lord told me that I was going to be nurturing someone. That would be giving the milk of the word to a baby Christian.
There is the great commision to preach the Gospel of the Kingdom of God (Gods Peace with man) to all nations, baptizing them in the Name of the Father, Son & Holy Spirit. The Name of all three of the Trinity would be Yahweh Elohim. Or LORD God. The Yahweh Elohim is Echad Yahweh. The LORD thy God (Elohim is plural of Allah) is One Yahweh (Or One LORD). So? The Name would be 3 in 1 or One Yahweh. There are 3 that bear witness in heaven, the Father, Word & Holy Spirit. These bear witness of who God Is in heaven & will not contradict Gods Word. So these three are One. One Creator, Yahweh Elohim.

I think that the words of Jesus the Christ, sum it up very well. While at the same time remembering that "we" do not convert anyone, it is the work of the Holy Spirit in a person's life that does all the converting. We are to share the Gospel of Jesus the Christ. Telling all people that He is: The Way, The Truth, and The Life. Let everyone know that forgiveness is possible, by grace given freely from the LORD God (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit).
Matthew 28:18-20
"Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."

My goal is to follow Christ's teachings.
Matthew 28:
The Great Commission
16 But the eleven disciples proceeded to Galilee, to the mountain which Jesus had designated.
17 When they saw Him, they worshiped Him; but some were doubtful.
18 And Jesus came up and spoke to them, saying, "All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth.
19 "Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit,
20 teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age."

Yes, it is very important to evangelize or simply say, to offer the free gift of eternal life while there is time to others.

Gosh--I feel like I can't get enough said out there.
God is SO GOOD, and I feel for people that do not believe in Him.
so what I do is to tell people what He has done for me--EVERY DAY--and He will do something AWESOME --JUST FOR ME---because I EXPECT it---because He PROMISED, and He will NOT break His promises!
