DOCTRINE
You are going to meet all sorts of people on the streets from all sorts of
backgrounds and all sorts of teachings. Don’t argue with them, follow Christs
example “Scripture says”, “Scripture also says” (see Mathew 4:1-11).
The Word is your sword, sck to it and if you don’t have an answer don’t make
one up, just say I don’t know the answer, but I can find out and get back to you.
Then do that.
KEEP IT SIMPLE
1 Corinthians 2:1-5 AMP “And when I came to you, brothers and sisters,
proclaiming to you the tesmony of God [concerning salvaon through Christ], I
did not come with superiority of speech or of wisdom [no loy words of
eloquence or of philosophy as a Greek orator might do]; 2 for I made the decision
to know nothing [that is, to forego philosophical or theological discussions
regarding inconsequenal things and opinions while] among you except Jesus
Christ, and Him crucified [and the meaning of His redempve, substuonary
death and His resurrecon]. 3 I came to you in [a state of] weakness and fear and
great trembling. 4 And my message and my preaching were not in persuasive
words of wisdom [using clever rhetoric], but [they were delivered] in
demonstraon of the [Holy] Spirit [operang through me] and of [His] power
[srring the minds of the listeners and persuading them], 5 so that your faith
would not rest on the wisdom and rhetoric of men, but on the power of God.”
If you trying to be the Holy Spirit, don’t expect Him to confirm your words. The
Holy Spirit only confirms the Word of God, so know God’s Word and preach that.
You do your part, and the Holy Spirit will do His. You can take that to the bank!
