Christians ONLY Please: If someone said, " I have never heard what the Gospel is," you would tell them . . . ?

Question

mg,
That was the lamest answer I've seen so far.

Medic,
That sucked. You are more worried about feelings than you are how God sees you. He went to so much trouble for that?

lovelymrsm,
You failed. You are not ready.

Thanks to the two who showed decency and discernment. God bless you both.

Kingdomchild7,
Not the answer I was looking for.

Sorry to all who did not threaten or ignore my call for Christians only. I was hard on this question because I thought that it was important. I am typically not so difficult to please. But I see that many Christians do not know the Gospel, and they come here saying that they are Christians. It makes me sad that things are so messed up, but I am not too surprised. The times short and there is to be a falling away. I guess it's here.

Answer 1

I would first ask them if they died today, do they know where they would go to spend eternity?

Then I would say to them that God's undeserved gift of salvation is available to anyone who believes that God sent HIS only son, Jesus Christ...to die on the cross to save us from our sins...our sin debt is paid in full by the blood of Christ that was shed on the cross as He was crucified. Also, I would have them pray this prayer with me:

Dear Heavenly Father,
I know that I am a sinner, and I ask that you would come into my heart and wash away all my sins, I rebuke the devil from my heart and I want to be conformed to what you want me to be! I love you and I want to serve you as it says in the Bible I should. Now that I have relationship with you, I pray that you would make my life new, and that I would be pleasing to you, Father!
I pray all these things in the name of Jesus Christ, AMEN!!!

Answer 2

that is an inseparable part of the christian experience...to preach the gospel and save the lost. if someone said "i have never heard of it" it would be such a great opportunity to share about Jesus Christ. here are some scriptures for you...

2 Timothy 4:1-3 In the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who will judge the living and the dead, and in view of his appearing and his kingdom, I give you this charge: Preach the Word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage—with great patience and careful instruction. For the time will come when men will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear.

2 Corinthians 5:11 Since, then, we know what it is to fear the Lord, we try to persuade men. What we are is plain to God, and I hope it is also plain to your conscience.

Acts 8:1-4 On that day a great persecution broke out against the church at Jerusalem, and all except the apostles were scattered throughout Judea and Samaria. Godly men buried Stephen and mourned deeply for him. But Saul began to destroy the church. Going from house to house, he dragged off men and women and put them in prison.
Philip in Samaria. Those who had been scattered preached the word wherever they went.

i would be eager not just to share the gospel with them, but my life as well.

Answer 3

Oh, yes absolutely.

Jesus the Son of the living GOD is the Gospel.

I would tell them what HE has done for me, through me, and in me. My whole life is His testimony.

GOD'S love is the most amazing gift ever given,and HE gave it free of charge to all people everywhere through His only begotten Son Jesus Christ. The promised seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. The promised Immanuel in the book of Isaiah. The root and the seed of David.

When I tell people about Jesus, and they ask " How can you have faith in something that may have happened so long ago ?" I tell them how I came to know the LORD and how GOD made that happen for me. I share with others where I came from and how GOD excepts the rejected, the unwanted and unloved. How HE healed me from many things that should have destroyed me. How HE broke the curse of witchcraft off of my live.

I have very recently had a bout with the loss of my voice, the devil kept telling me "See you were never healed all those doctors said you would lose your voice for good eventually and never get it back". I continued to claim "BY HIS stripes I am healed" Almost a week passed and still I could not speak, I sat on my sofa, and heard "You have not because you ask not." come from with in me, so I asked " Father GOD Almighty, I ask you in the Name of your Son Jesus Christ return to me my voice" Amen. Then I started singing Jesus Loves Me. Immediately my voice could be heard.

The Gospel of Jesus Christ can be told in the stories of today and they line right up with the stories of the new testament.

Answer 4

The Gospel (good news), is what Jesus Christ was preaching, He told His disciples to go and preach the gospel, to the whole world, and when this is done, the end time will be close. The gospel is the good news, about the world tomorrow, the kingdom of God (Rev. 21). It is about the second coming of Jesus Christ.
These so call churches, are not doing the work of God, they are more about the things of this world, they really don't know what the gospel is. They should be talking about Godly things, about Jesus coming to claim His Kingdom, about all of us in Christ, becoming brothers and sisters of Jesus, about the glade days to come, here on the new earth. they are about preaching, the going to heaven, upon dieing. they fell to see, if those in Christ, go to heaven, upon dieing: who are those Jesus raise from the grave, and change them from mortal to immortal, when He returns the second time, these are in the first resurrection, and will rule with Him in the millennium. See 1Corinthians 15:42-54.

Answer 5

Diligently study the Bible, in fervent prayer, asking for wisdom and understanding.

Now if your talking about like on a mission trip, where there is no way of getting a Bible, in a country where Jesus is mostly unheard of, that would be different.

Then I would have to give them a Bible in their native language, and have Bible studies with them. Because you can't teach a person what the Gospel is without taking some time to explain and pray, and give of yourself as much as it takes to bring it all around. Tell someone that they must be born again and walk away and you haven't done anything.

Anyway this is getting to be a little to much for Yahoo.

God be with you,

Answer 6

Yes, only if they desired to discuss the matter of the Gospel. I'm willing to explain the Gospel to anyone who has a desire to know the truth as it is in CHRIST: NOT to win them as a proselite but to proclaim CHRIST and HIM crucified. In Acts 14 Paul first preached to the entire crowd, and then later went back and preached to those who believed. NO person has the ability to make a person a child of GOD; nor to "lead" them to CHRIST, etc. ONLY the Holy Ghost is enabled to Spiritually born a person; and after this they are receptive and desire to hear the good news (GOSPEL), in what CHRIST has already fully accomplished for HIS chosen ones.

Answer 7

Only if they asked me what it was, then i would give them the basics, without trying to recruit.

- I am not worried about feelings at at all. That is your wrong assumption. I believe that religions are out there for everyone to find. If someone asks me about a particular religion, i will tell them what I know. If they ask me what I believe then I will tell them what I believe. I will not, in any shape form or fashion force a religion onto a person, even in the slightest bit. I believe that when we in any way, justify our religious religious beliefs onto some else we take one step back toward the days when Christians were burning people at the stake. I will not be apart of any such movement back toward those times, and will do all that I can move further away from it.

Answer 8

Tell me, ye that desire to be under the law, do ye not hear the law? Many who try and fail to keep all of it get accursed. Any who do keep all of it end up dead, since it's the ministration of death, both the source and strength of sin's death sting.

Grace: I'll never leave you nor forsake you: Heb 13:5
Law & Law: I'll forget you & I'll forsake you: Jer 23:39

David & Jesus:
My God, my God...forsaken: Ps 22 & Mt 27

The GRACE of our Lord Jesus Christ with you all. Amen.

Answer 9

The gospel is about bringing the lost back to Christ who came down on Earth and died so that we could live. Many people have not experienced the goodness of God or chose not to experience it. Hence, Christians are to spread this message to others so they can receive salvation.

Answer 10

I would be absolutely honoured to tell anyone that Jesus loves you and He is the only "ticket" to Heaven, everlasting abundant life before the Father!
