    USA riots

    There are 330,000 million people in the US, 1,004 people were killed in 2019 (regardless of race), that is .003 or 3/1000 deaths. Is this an alarming number? Out of 330,000,000. Is there no room to question what these people are doing to cause the police to show up in the first place? I was...

    Are all believers called to evangelize?

    The key is "God will enable them according to HIS CHOOSING".

    Are all believers called to evangelize?

    I agree, but this is not evangelism.

    Are all believers called to evangelize?

    It's not just in this thread that I see it is this way - lol - trust me. I believe it IS a gift (as well as an office). There are many gifts God has given to believers that are not listed in the Bible, for the list would be another book in itself! What about singers? Is not singing a gift...

    Are all believers called to evangelize?

    I agree with you about the "clerically approved", of course we should not wait for us to be cleared by clerical, I am not talking about this at all, you also don't need an "evangelist degree" or whatever else degree, however what is important is to wait to be called by God before we make a move...

    Are all believers called to evangelize?

    Evangelism requires a great deal of teaching, the person should really have the correct doctrine and accuracy. Sharing what God has done in your life is just that - sharing, it's not teaching. There is a difference and so called evangelists have done great harm within the Church.

    Are all believers called to evangelize?

    Not every single gift God gives to His children are listed in the Bible, not everyone is an evangelist. Just think about all the testimonies and witnesses "from God" who speak falsity and lies, but they claim they are evangelists. Teachers and pastors do the same thing, not everyone is called.

    Are all believers called to evangelize?

    This great commission is not the gift of evangelism nor the office of Evangelist.

    Are all believers called to evangelize?

    Small letter prophet, evangelist are gifts given by God. Not everyone has the same gifts. What will a body do if it was made up of all arms?

    Are all believers called to evangelize?

    Or rather it should be done in the way the Bible has laid it out for us, Evangelists are called by God (and not everyone is called to be this), and if man sends everyone out and "speaks from the heart", God has told us about our hearts, too: Matthew 15:19 For out of the heart comes all kinds of...

    Are all believers called to evangelize?

    If that is the case, where all believers are called to be Evangelists, most are really, really bad at it. lol

    Are all believers called to evangelize?

    I think the key with Moses is that He was CALLED by God and God prepared Moses for what He was called to do. God prepares His people before He calls them and their learning experiences are difficult. We are not all called to be Evangelists, this is an office and a gift, with God's preparation...

    Are all believers called to evangelize?

    Still not an evangelist, we are to share the hope we have in us, be the light in this world, salt of the earth, however this is not being the office of Evangelist, which is being called by God, a mature, taught by God position within the Church. This is not to say we are supposed to be...

    The Lord's Side (Remaining neutral and non partisan)

    Who can deny that politics, world issues and the mess the world is in, does detract us from God and what He might be calling us to do for Him?

    The Lord's Side (Remaining neutral and non partisan)

    I did read the article and wrote my thoughts concerning it (not that my thoughts really matter all that much - ha), but I would agree that God would put believers in different areas of government at times. Who are we to know what God's plans are for a person? God puts His work upon our hearts to...

    Which decade were you born in?

    What could I tell you about my decade that you don't already know, everyone is so old! ;):D

    The Lord's Side (Remaining neutral and non partisan)

    The church itself is supposed to be taking care of the poor and under privileged. The problem is the government, it's too corrupted at this point to do any good, just more enabling of the poor, more oppression of the people. The government is not the answer, it would be wasting time to get...

    The shutting down of Churches due to COVID

    I completely understand the health issues caused by covid for some people, however, I also believe God allows things to happen for the benefit of those who love Him and this period of time was a perfect time for believers to return to God - and God ONLY - not relying on church services to feed...

    Are all believers called to evangelize?

    That is a great verse! We are to be ready to answer for the hope in us, yet that is not evangelism.

    Are all believers called to evangelize?

    Excellent verse for this thread! Thanks. How many times has the gospel been preached differently by "well intended evangelists" who feel everyone is called? When we are speaking of the gospel, it's pretty hefty stuff, we better get it right, if we're feeling it's our responsibility to "save...
