Don’t be discouraged when your labor gets hard and you don’t see the harvest. Don’t ever forget, the more gardeners we have, the bigger the harvest is going to be.

Therefore we can not say the the evangelist have a special power to convert people for that is only done by the Holy Spirit and all who have accepted Jesus have that Spirit , only thing is that they need to be empowered, that is why Jesus advised the disciples to stay in one place in order to receive power that is authority.

If you go to the the church of Jesus Christ, as in "Latter Day Saints" which are "Mormons" than your not a Christian, at least not one that's saved because, Latter Day saints believe in a different Jesus. This may seem harsh but it is still the truth if you go to and believe what the "Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints/Mormons. Latter Day Saints are not another denomination but are a different faith. Latter Day Saints believe that Jesus is a created being and brother to Lucifer/Devil. They believe that Jesus Christ is just one of many Gods and that we can ascend to heaven and become Gods ourselves. In order to be saved you have to believe in the Deity, Death, Burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. You have to realize that you are a sinner and repent/ turn from your sins, plus put your faith in Jesus Christ alone for your salvation. Trinity - The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit are three person, one God and both are co-equal to each other. Christianity is not a works based faith which means that there is nothing you can do to earn your salvation. I urge to repent of your sins and put your faith in Jesus Christ alone for your salvation.

I apologize, Greg, for having preconceived notions about you. One of those notions is, I think, directly related to what Bob and Gretchen have said about you. One of those things, specifically, is that, from my recollection, Gretchen told a group of us, meeting with her, that you have tried to put forward an argument (for Calvinism) where you actually tried to use one of Bob's arguments for your point of view, regarding Calvinism. I have had discourse with people whom, I think, would say that they are Calvinists, and they have seemed to have great minds and/or erudite minds, from my point of view -- but I have also spoken with "non-Calvinists" who have told me that Calvinists believe that, basically, we are all robots and have no free will; that everything has been already dictated by God and/or that God has predetermined/preordained who's going to be in the Book Of Life and who's not. From what I understand, Bob and Gretchen were two of your mentors -- and, if my recollection is right, they have both discounted your point(s) of view, at least regarding Calvinism.

Therefore be as shrewd as snakes and as innocent as doves. 17 Be on your guard; you will be handed over to the local councils and be flogged in the synagogues. 18 On my account you will be brought before governors and kings as witnesses to them and to the Gentiles. 19 But when they arrest you, do not worry about what to say or how to say it. At that time you will be given what to say, 20 for it will not be you speaking, but the Spirit of your Father speaking through you. 21 “Brother will betray brother to death, and a father his child; children will rebel against their parents and have them put to death. 22 You will be hated by everyone because of me, but the one who stands firm to the end will be saved. 23 When you are persecuted in one place, flee to another. Truly I tell you, you will not finish going through the towns of Israel before the Son of Man comes. 24 “The student is not above the teacher, nor a servant above his master. 25 It is enough for students to be like their teachers, and servants like their masters. If the head of the house has been called Beelzebul, how much more the members of his household! 26 “So do not be afraid of them, for there is nothing concealed that will not be disclosed, or hidden that will not be made known. 27 What I tell you in the dark, speak in the daylight; what is whispered in your ear, proclaim from the roofs. 28 Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather, be afraid of the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell. 29 Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them will fall to the ground outside your Father’s care.[b] 30 And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. 31 So don’t be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows. 32 “Whoever acknowledges me before others, I will also acknowledge before my Father in heaven. 33 But whoever disowns me before others, I will disown before my Father in heaven. 34 “Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword. 35 For I have come to turn “‘a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law- 36 a man’s enemies will be the members of his own household.’[c] 37 “Anyone who loves their father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; anyone who loves their son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. 38 Whoever does not take up their cross and follow me is not worthy of me. 39 Whoever finds their life will lose it, and whoever loses their life for my sake will find it. 40 “Anyone who welcomes you welcomes me, and anyone who welcomes me welcomes the one who sent me. 41 Whoever welcomes a prophet as a prophet will receive a prophet’s reward, and whoever welcomes a righteous person as a righteous person will receive a righteous person’s reward. 42 And if anyone gives even a cup of cold water to one of these little ones who is my disciple, truly I tell you, that person will certainly not lose their reward.” jude 22 Be merciful to those who doubt; 23 save others by snatching them from the fire; to others show mercy, mixed with fear-hating even the clothing stained by corrupted flesh.[f] acts 17 When Paul and his companions had passed through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where there was a Jewish synagogue. 2 As was his custom, Paul went into the synagogue, and on three Sabbath days he reasoned with them from the Scriptures, 3 explaining and proving that the Messiah had to suffer and rise from the dead. “This Jesus I am proclaiming to you is the Messiah,” he said. 4 Some of the Jews were persuaded and joined Paul and Silas, as did a large number of God-fearing Greeks and quite a few prominent women. 5 But other Jews were jealous; so they rounded up some bad characters from the marketplace, formed a mob and started a riot in the city. They rushed to Jason’s house in search of Paul and Silas in order to bring them out to the crowd.[a] 6 But when they did not find them, they dragged Jason and some other believers before the city officials, shouting: “These men who have caused trouble all over the world have now come here, 7 and Jason has welcomed them into his house. They are all defying Caesar’s decrees, saying that there is another king, one called Jesus.” 8 When they heard this, the crowd and the city officials were thrown into turmoil. 9 Then they made Jason and the others post bond and let them go. you know nothing of biblical evangelism you fool! you have no scripture to back your bafoonery. NEVER did the word say go out as a gardener. you seek to reap! if you cannot reap, then you are considered a gardener as youve done all you can. youre probably not even saved

How do you make disciples , without first making believers ????? How many times does the Lord need to hold our hand ?John 6:44 God is the only One who can change a person’s heart. No amount of your clever persuasion can do it. Sincerely a neighbor. 🙏🏼

@@Thruevangelisteyes lol a believer is a disciple. and i provided plenty of scripture providing why we go for the throat, otherwise blood will be on your head!!!! you gave one scripture that proves nothing. prayer hands are pagan. James 3:1 Taming the Tongue Not many of you should become teachers, my fellow believers, because you know that we who teach will be judged more strictly.

Mankind has concocted thousands of god claims throughout recorded history, none of which have ever been proven by any reasonable standard of evidence, including yours. That goes for all supernatural claims. And faith is just the excuse of people give when they don't have good reason for their beliefs.
