Evangelism

Paper Summary:

This paper examines how a bunch of former fisherman, tax collectors, and otherwise disconnected young men became willing to give their lives in order to spread the message of the Gospel after the death of Jesus. It debates that the truth of the Gospel is something that must be addressed as it is believed by the Church and how, if is not true, if Jesus did not rise from the dead, then the conclusions that result from believing these alternate interpretations create unrealistic situations, which cannot be accepted by reasonable individuals.

From the Paper:

"Paul was opposed by those who believed in the Jewish law; just as believers today are opposed by those who bow at the altar of New Age self deification, Secular Humanism, or more recently postmodern self-determinism. Those who want to guide their lives by their own efforts do not want to hear about One who sets guidelines and standards to which we are accountable. In today's marketplace, the cultural war cry of "separation of church and state" carries with it the same political force as those who called "we have no king but Caesar" during Christ's conviction before Pilate. Similarly, Christians today have to engage the world on its own turf in order to protect our right, and responsibility to present the gospel."
