Presentation transcript:

Matthew 5: “You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot. 14 “You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. 15 Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. 16 In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.

Colossians 4: Be wise in the way you act toward outsiders; make the most of every opportunity. 6 Let your conversation be always full of grace, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how to answer everyone.

S-A-L-T S - start a conversation with someone. A - ask questions to build bridges. L - listen carefully to the person and to the Lord. T - tell your story in a non-religious way.

HOW DO WE DEVELOP A CULTURE OF EVANGELISM?

LUKE 10:

SO WHAT’S THE MEANING OF THIS PARABLE?

Romans 13: Let no debt remain outstanding, except the continuing debt to love one another, for whoever loves others has fulfilled the law. 9 The commandments, “You shall not commit adultery,” “You shall not murder,” “You shall not steal,” “You shall not covet,” and whatever other command there may be, are summed up in this one command: “Love your neighbor as yourself.” 10 Love does no harm to a neighbor. Therefore love is the fulfillment of the law.

A KEY QUESTION : WHO IS MY NEIGHBOUR?

John 10:10 10 The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.
