Addressing Evangelism
Weekly News - Weekly News
Friday, 11 January 2008

As is fairly obvious from our mission and vision to the way these meetings and the ministry function, Drexel Crusade places a heavy emphasis on evangelism.  It’s what this ministry is about.  This term especially we will be focusing on the different aspects and different forms of evangelism, but perhaps even now it may be best to bring clarity to one aspect of sharing our faith.

As believers, Christ calls all to evangelism.  This Great Commission becomes our main purpose here on earth – to spread the hope of the Gospel.  We evangelize to our classmates, co-workers, family, and to anyone God has given us an opportunity. We evangelize to everyone.

We cannot say that someone is beyond the reach of the Gospel. We need not look any further than ourselves to see that! God reached us with the Gospel. We are no better; we are no wiser than any lost soul on this campus. Paul says in his first letter to the Corinthians:

27God chose what is foolish in the world to shame the wise; God chose what is weak in the world to shame the strong; 28God chose what is low and despised in the world, even things that are not, to bring to nothing things that are, 29so that no human being might boast in the presence of God. 30And because of him you are in Christ Jesus, who became to us wisdom from God, righteousness and sanctification and redemption, 31so that, as it is written, "Let the one who boasts, boast in the Lord (1 Corinthians 1:27-31 ESV).”

God wishes that all might be saved, but how will anyone hear his message of salvation without the words of the Gospel coming out of our mouths?

We cannot ignore those whom we think will reject the Gospel, for that is to limit the power of God. Romans 1:16 says, “For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek.”  To say that one is not ready to hear the Gospel emphatically diminishes the power of God.  We do not have the power to save souls. God is the one who saves!

The “Parable of the Sower” shows a man sowing seed indiscriminately; on all types of soil (people). The parable teaches us is the responses we will get from “sowing” the seed of the gospel.  What it does not say is that we ought to only sow to the group that “hears the word and understands it.”

When one looks to Jesus’ ministry they find that he evangelized to everyone – it was what he came to do.  He shared with those who did not want to hear it, those who rejected His message, and those who eventually killed him.

This does not mean we should share the Gospel with those who tell us not to share with them. It instead means that we must share the Gospel with everyone, unless they tell us to stop speaking.

The point is that we must always be “prepared to make a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you (1 Peter 3:15b ESV).”  Don’t limit God; share the gospel to all; even to those who don’t ask us to share it.

It's That Time of Year Again...
Weekly News - Special Announcements
Monday, 10 December 2007

That's right folks! Every finals week, we like to take a short break from our studies, reflect back on the term, hang out with some good friends, and of course...chow down! The festivities begin at 6:30 p.m. at 3500 Hamiltion St. with a "white elephant" gift exchange occuring sometime after. We'll probably spend some time singing some good ol' Christmas carols as well.

So, for the white elephant, be sure to bring a gift (under $5). If you'd like, bring an extra gift for those who may forget or who are invited out and don't know. So don't hesitate to invite people out!
