Church Evangelism

Something to Consider:

Below is a portion of an E-Mail that I sent to my previous church board and several faithful attendees:

I want you to think about something today. Remember Joshua and the story of Achan? Achan disobeyed Elohim's command and as a result, many died. Elohim cursed the community because of the sin of one. If Elohim has not changed His method of operation, think about our churches. We invite everyone to come as you are, sin and all. Get involved, be a part, and find your destiny. We are hopeful that in the process, they will have a life changing encounter with Yeshua. But until then, their sin is part of your church. Maybe this is a reason why the church is powerless; Elohim will not bless the group for the sins of those present. Maybe the way the church is supposed to work, is that the believers are to go out and evangelize, i.e. make disciples. Maybe the church is just for the disciples and not the unsaved. Maybe we have gotten off track by using the church as the means of evangelism. Maybe we are bringing sin into the church and Elohim has left. Disagree if you wish, but ask yourself, “when is the last time we really saw the power of Elohim move in our midst?” Just think about it.”
