Building Bridges.....

I'm reading the book "simply Jesus" by N.T Wright He is asking himself and us some questions. Who was Jesus? Why did he do the things he did? How can we be sure? etc. Jesus was, and still is not easy to understand. Mark 12:30-31 30 Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’[a] 31 The second is this: ‘Love your neighbour as yourself.’[b] There is no commandment greater than these.” Love your neighbour as yourself.

Put up with suffering; do the work of an evangelist; complete the particular task assigned to you. Remember that evangelizing is sim

Evangelism is not a word I have heard often at churches in the past few years. Why should we do it? Why don't we see so much about it? What does the Bible say? How to do it? Did you know that young adults, age between 20–30 in Sweden who say they believe in God is about 18%. In Denmark, a country very close the figure is 34%. Why is that so? According to the research, almost all practising Christians believe that part of their faith means being a witness about Jesus. Between 94 and 97 per cent say the best thing that could ever happen to someone is for them to know Jesus. However, many Millennials in the US are unsure about the actual practise of evangelism. Almost half (47 per cent) agree at least somewhat that it is wrong to share ones personal beliefs with someone of a different faith in hopes that they will one day share the same faith. John Zmirak, writer and editor says, there are more Face book users than Christian's in the world. The
