The Gospel Message – Revival Style

This is it! The day those taking Revival Boot Camp have waited for – the Gospel Message. After studying how John the Baptist, Jesus, Peter and Paul shared the gospel, we have come to our final summary of the Gospel Message presented in the Bible.

Don’t be afraid by the length of this message, because you don’t have to memorize it. I want you to familiarize yourself with this presentation of the gospel so you can present it to someone like telling a story. Ask the Holy Spirit how you should present the Gospel to the individual. You most likely will present it differently every time. I have supplied many scriptures for you to reference. If you have a great memory, you can memorize them. I know that I will not be able to memorize them all, so I will only be able to tell the story.

You must begin praying for the lost now. Make a list of everyone you know who is lost, then pray for an opportunity to share this message with them.
