Think Like A Missionary – Appeal to Their Desires

If your culture seems resistant to Jesus remember to think about what they desire that Jesus fulfills. This is what some missionaries do.

So you can ask people:
“What if there was a religion that:”

1. Didn’t require any particular organization
2. The writings were in everyday language the average person can understand
3. Isn’t based on people trying to figure out the truth, but on God’s revelation in historical events
4. Is centered on fairness and love
5. Is centered on healthy relationships
6. You don’t have to earn salvation with great works
7. Teaches us to treat all people with respect and courtesy
8. Is not elitist and doesn’t require leaving society to be spiritually advanced. The last shall be first and the first shall be last.
9. God will restore loving community one day and keep out destructive people.

By asking these questions you let people decide for themselves, based on their desires, if they are open to Jesus.
