Part 3: Evangelism and the Believer
Series: Serving Christ's Church
Stuart Briscoe
Romans 10:1-21

A. The commission of Christ demands evangelism.
1. Salvation has been procured-Christ's ministry.
a. Through grace, not law.
b. Through faith, not works.
2. Salvation must be proclaimed-Church's ministry.
B. The condition of mankind requires evangelism.
1. The unsaved need to be saved. v. 1
2. The zealous need to be taught. v. 2
3. The ignorant need to be informed. v. 3a
4. The mistaken need to be corrected. v. 3b
