6 Introduction Who needs Christianity For Today?
7 Introduction We need to evangelize at home. We must find that special way to reach our unchurched Christians and boast our own enthusiasm. YOU CAN JUDGE CHRISTIANITY FOR TODAY BY ITS FRUIT YOU HAVE A RESPONSIBILITY TO OTHERS
8 Introduction With Hard Work Godly Visions Can Come True Otherwise They Can Die From Lack of Interest! YOU CAN TURN THE 80/20 RULE UPSIDE DOWN! You Can Yell at God; But It is Forbidden to Laugh at Someone s Question.
9 Q&A Be Committed NO ONE WILL FORCE YOU TO SPEAK OR READ OUT LOUD IF YOU DO NOT WISH TO
10 Q&A ARE YOU ANGRY AT GOD, OR JUST CURIOUS ABOUT WHAT IT S ALL ABOUT?? "GO INTO THE WORLD AND PREACH THE GOSPEL TO ALL PEOPLE. Nothing but scriptures, no dogma, no denomination, only straight forward biblical truths.
11 Training " Leaders are Encouraged to Only Help the Discussion Stay on Track and Right For the Needs of the Group. FOR THIS IS THE WILL OF MY FATHER, THAT EVERYONE WHO BEHOLDS THE SON AND BELIEVES IN HIM, MAY HAVE ETERNAL LIFE; AND I MYSELF SHALL LIFT HIM UP ON THAT LAST DAY. JOHN 6:40
12 Training Be ready always to give an answer to every man that asks you the reason for the hope that is in you, yet with gentleness and reverence. 1 Peter 3:15 AND IF IT WITH GREAT DIFFICULTY THAT THE RIGHTEOUS MAN BE SAVED, WHAT WILL BECOME OF THE GODLESS MAN AND SINNER? 1 PETER 4:18
13 Training "Why do you call me, `Lord, Lord,' and do not do what I say? Luke 6:46 NO ONE IS CALLED TO DO NOTHING Look what they have done to our church nationally!
14 Training We need to pray, pray, get on our face prayer, not just naming but spelling out specifics. Praying not only for our leadership at Your Church but for better, more righteous, leaders for our nation and our national church. SCRIPTURES SAY WE DO NOT HAVE BECAUSE WE DO NOT ASK. We need to be embolden to ask for the desires of our heart praying daily for miracles.
15 You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you to go and bear fruit--fruit that will last. John 15:14-16 Christianity for Today Training PRAY! IT IS ABOVE ALL ELSE YOUR GREATEST PART IN CHRISTIANITY FOR TODAY AND YOUR BEST WEAPON AGAINST SATAN
16 Training WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU WEPT WHILE YOU PRAYED FOR THE LOST SOULS, OR YOUR COUNTRY OR YOUR CHURCH? YET, WE WEEP FOR THOSE IN PAIN AND SUFFERING THAT WE ARE CLOSE TO. IS IT BECAUSE WE DISTANCE OURSELVES FROM THESE ASPECTS?
17 Training Don t teach, guide, and listen, Let Holy Spirit have His way DISPLAY THE FRUITS OF THE SPIRIT, ESPECIALLY SELF-CONTROL We all have baggage
18 Training Create a climate of acceptance YOU ARE A PASTOR OF A FLOCK Do Not Take Sides in a Discussion.
19 Training Always use God s LUCK L-OVE of God U-NDERSTANDING of God C-OMPASSION of God K-NOWLEDGE of God In dealing with anyone
20 Session One First of all I am not a professional Christian... not a paid staff person. I am what is commonly called a Lay Person... in other words... One of you. Church is Not a Building, It Is the People
21 Session One Is Christianity Really Relevant Today? You Already Have Eternal Life... It s Just Where You Are Going To Spend It That Is The Question GOD GIVES US A CHOICE, WE HAVE TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT ONE
22 Session One Yes, Christianity Is Vitally Important Today! 80% OF AMERICANS PROFESS TO BE CHRISTIANS Read The Bible! No Man Can Serve Two Masters
23 Session One "By this they shall know you are My disciples, that you love one another." (John 13:35) WHAT S SO SPECIAL ABOUT JESUS?
24 Session One What Would a Total Absence of God Be Like? BECAUSE YOU HAVE SEEN ME, YOU HAVE BELIEVED: BLESSED ARE THOSE WHO HAVE NOT SEEN AND YET BELIEVE. (JOHN 20:29)
25 Session One Jesus Teachings are Considered the Greatest Words the World Has Ever Known READ: THE CASE FOR CHRIST BY LEE STROBEL
26 Session One I Am the Bread of Life. John 6:35 UNTIL WE FIND A TRUE RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD THROUGH JESUS WE WILL NEVER FIND COMPLETE ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS THAT MATTER TO US, NOR FIND TRUE MEANING FOR MUCH OF ANYTHING.
27 Session One So why not try Jesus? GIVE HIM A CHANCE. YOU HAVE NOTHING TO LOSE AND EVERYTHING TO GAIN. He will not disappoint you! He loves you and said, would that all be saved.
28 Session Two WHY Should I Read the Bible? CHRISTIANITY OUGHT TO BE A VERB
29 Session Two The Bible is Alive! READ EACH BOOK IN THE BIBLE SEPARATELY The Bible Is a Library not Just a Book Don t Give Up If You Get Confused
30 Session Two What s Faith Got To Do With It? DON T SAY I AM FINISHED Why would people all over the world risk their life to possess a Bible? Start with a realistic goal
31 Session Two Make A Daily Journal ASK GOD TO SPEAK TO YOU THROUGH WHAT YOU ARE READING What s the Big Deal About Prayer? How effective are you at communication?
32 Session Two Through Prayer You can Effect the Entire Creation 90% OF AMERICANS PROFESS TO PRAY Don t Do All the Talking... Listen! Keep It Simple
33 Session Two It s a Two-way Communication PRAYER IS GOD'S SECOND GREATEST GIFT! God s office never precludes our entrance into His chamber. HE IS ALWAYS READY TO LISTEN Adoration, Confession, Thanksgiving, Intercession, Petition
34 Session Two Stand Firm On God s Word! PUT GOD FIRST IN EVERYTHING IN YOUR LIFE, EVERYTHING ELSE WILL FALL INTO PLACE IF YOU NEED TO, CRY!
35 Session Two Review the Problem Tell Him Your Bitterness Confess You Need Him Ask for His Help! Remember Who You Are! GOD WILL NOT BE MOCKED
36 Session Three Does God Really Hear Me? DO YOU HEAR GOD? Allow Holy Spirit To Be Your helper God has patience with you!
37 Session Three We Must Train Ourselves In His Ways 4 KEYS: GOD HAS A PLAN; PUT GOD FIRST; YIELD TO GOD AND FOLLOW CHRIST Know The Character of God!
38 Session Three Does God Really Have a Plan For My Life? YOU Must Take The First Step DOES GOD REALLY CARE ABOUT ME? FAITH is taking that first step!
39 Session Three Do Not Be As The Horse or Mule HOW DOES GOD GUIDE US!!?? SEEK GOD S WILL Don t Let Disobedience Separate You From YOUR God!
40 God Will Not Lead You Into Anything Contrary To Scripture Trust God! Christianity for Today Session Three DO NOT ALLOW YOUR WILL TO OVER RIDE HIS WILL When You Seek Guidance Listen For His Side Be Careful About Open Doors
41 Session Four Who Is Holy Spirit? IN THE OLD TESTAMENT HOLY SPIRIT FELL ON SPECIFIC PEOPLE FOR SPECIFIC PURPOSES Yes Bad Things Still Happen To Good People. What Does Holy Spirit Do?
42 Session Four What Are Gifts of Holy Spirit? SPIRITUAL GIFTS ARE GOD S PERFECT ORDER Receive YOUR Full Inheritance He Blesses Us That We May Bless Others In Like Manner
43 Session Four Gifts to the Whole Church WHY DO WE EVEN HAVE SUCH GIFTS? No Spiritual Gift Should Edify a Person, Only God Do Not Seek The Gifts For Wrong Motives DOES GOD HEAL TODAY?
44 Session Four EXPECT A MIRACLE! WHY DOES GOD HEAL SOME AND NOT OTHERS? Should I expect God To Heal Today? The Greek Word For Save Also Means Heal!
45 Session Four True Inner Healing Only Comes From God IF YOU FEEL CONDEMNED LOOK TO WHERE IT IS COMING FROM Do Not Be Deceived! Do His Will, Not Yours, Only Then Will You Receive All The Blessings He has Reserved For You!
46 Session Four He Died On The Cross For Us All!
47 Session Five How Can I Change? COURAGE FROM FAITH BRINGS TRUTH AND LIFE Allow Holy Spirit To Help! Where Is Your Place In The Vineyards? Your Attitude Should Be From Gratitude!
48 Session Five Be Grateful No Matter The Circumstances AS A LOVING SERVANT TRUST GOD What Are Your Priorities? So What s Next? Temptation Is Not Sin, Acting On It Is!
49 Session Five The Good News Is God Has Rescued Us! IN JESUS WE ARE NO LONGER CONDEMNED! Satan Trembles When He Sees The Weakest Christian On His Knees! Be Transformed!
50 Session Five Seek Him First SET ASIDE TIME FOR HIM! He Will Not Leave You Alone!
51 Session Six The Truth Is Someone First Witnessed To You! JUST BE WILLING TO SPREAD SEEDS Simply Be A Willing Guide Join The Club!
52 Session Six It s A Good Deal! PSST, PASS IT ON! How Can I Spread The Good News To Others? He WILL Give You The Words
53 Session Six What Good Is What You Believe If It Does Not Make A Difference? PLAY THE PART HE GIVES US, BE A LIGHT! Listen With All Gentleness While Ministering To The Needs Of Others Be God s Emissary!
54 Session Six = Many! TELL HOW YOU HAVE CHANGED God Is The Same Today As He Was Yesterday! See Yourself As Others Do
55 Session Six WHAT DIFFERENCE WOULD IT MAKE IN YOUR LIFE IF YOU KNEW JESUS WAS COMING BACK TOMORROW?
