Publisher's Synopsis
Evangelism is heavily associated with announcing and proclaiming the gospel. Both Western evangelical and Eastern Orthodox Christians have-for the most part-favored this view of evangelism. In The Neglected Great Commission, author Rev. Dr. Gabriel O. Akinbode describes what evangelism means and further discusses the Great Commission that Jesus Christ gave to his disciples, to go into the world and make disciples of all nations. Strengthening the faith of Christians, Akinbode offers a host of information on spiritual awakening. He: - traces a brief history of the commission from the beginning and how it was passed from generation to generation; - identifies the essentials of evangelism; - delves into the scriptural pattern of evangelism and divides it into two parts, namely mass evangelism and personal evangelism; - reveals the urgent need to reach the young people with the gospel that the harvest is plentiful, the laborers are few, and time is short; - describes how the Great Commission was neglected; - lifts up the benefits that can be achieved through obedience to the Great Commission; and - advocates for all believers to rise up and embrace the Great Commission. The Neglected Great Commission communicates that the power of Jesus is available to save, heal, deliver, and use you for God's glory. There is a reward in serving the Lord.
