Christ is the one who calls;
the one who loved and came,
to whom by right it falls
to bear the highest Name:
and still today
our hearts are stirred
to hear his word
and walk his way.
Christ is the one who seeks,
to whom our souls are known.
The word of love he speaks
can wake a heart of stone;
for at that sound
the blind can see,
the slave is free,
the lost are found.
Whoever calls on the name of the Lord will be saved1 Timothy 4:2
Preach the WordMatthew 4:19
Effective Evangelism
It is essential for any church to be effective in communicating the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ that will lead people to a saving faith in Him. To do this will mean that the believers in the church will be fully committed to sharing the gospel in daily conversation when opportunities arise. They will need to make contact and build a friendship with people before they can invite them along to a gospel service. We no longer expect that people will attend church as once was the pattern but when they do we must be able to present the message to the glory of God and that salvation is found in no other name than Jesus Christ.
