Review: Have the courage to clearly and convincingly speak the truth in a courteous and compassionate manner
But what is the truth we are to speak?
THE GOSPEL, THE “GREAT NEWS”
(Romans 1:16b)
The truth about who Jesus is and what He has done (1 Corinthians 15:3-4)
How one personally experiences this salvation through Jesus (John 3:16)
OTHER TRUTHS WE MAY NEED TO ADDRESS
The God of the Bible truly exists (Revelation 1:8; 22:18; Exodus 34:6-7a)
God has spoken to us through the Bible
The gospel is often better news than we realize (John 11:25b-26a)
The gospel has important implications as to how we are to live (1 John 4:10-11; Ephesians 4:32)
May the Lord give us the courage to present this truth clearly and convincingly in the most courteous and compassionate way possible
