From the Foreword...This book, as its title forthrightly asserts,
is a manual, a blueprint based on experience as well as
scholarship, a how-to book for all who take to heart Christ's Great
Commission (Matthew 28:9-20). It is a book about evangelism for all
Christians whom the Holy Spirit moves to be evangelists, namely,
all Christians. Dr. Gregory Tyree has written a book that is
exhaustive in its treatment of "soulwinning." He leaves no aspect
of evangelism unexplored and his breadth of learning is matched by
his own rich experiences as a pastor of four churches. I happen to
know first-hand about Dr. Tyree's soulwinning abilities because
over a two-month period he taught. He comforted, he counseled, he
confounded, and, finally, he led me to trust Christ as my personal
Lord and Savior. He led me to a point where the Holy Spirit could
pry open my hardened, secular heart and regenerate my lost soul. It
was the author of this book who pulled no punches, as happens so
often in our postmodern culture, when teaching me what being a
Christian really means. He spoke with the firmness and clarity of
the prophets, never minimizing the tension that comes from the need
to choose --- between truth and untruth. He led me to understand
that there is only an "either-or" decision, to accept God's free
gift of salvation, to accept Christ. And he did so with brilliance,
eloquence, gentleness, strength, compassion, and Christian patience
and love --- as he does in the pages that follow. From the
Introduction... While many books have been written about evangelism
over the years, it seems that today it is almost "unpopular," even
in evangelical churches, to talk about soul-winning. People make
light of the "old ways," and a resurgence of apathy concerning the
doctrine of Hell and the methods of evangelism is evident to even
the casual observer. While I am no "expert" on soul-winning, I have
led a good number to a saving knowledge of Christ. I know the
thrill of seeing someone bow his or her head, in my presence, and
receive Christ as Savior. I have seen (numerous times) a soul
shackled by sin freed by the liberating power of the Holy Spirit I
have seen atheists, agnostics, skeptics, and even bitter
ex-church-goers turn from their sin and lost-ness and give, without
reservation, their lives to Jesus There is nothing- I mean NOTHING-
to compare to it So if you, too, have a burden to see people saved;
if you care whether or not people spend eternity in Hell; if you
want people to go to Heaven; if you want to be obedient to Christ's
commission; if you want to bring glory to God, then read on With
these thoughts in mind, the book is designed thusly: 1) reasons
Christians avoid soul-winning; 2) getting ready for the "harvest";
3) pre-evangelism; 4) how to lead someone to Christ; 5) they're
saved, now what? 6) getting your church involved in soul-winning;
7) children and evangelism; 8) what's in it for me?; 9) you
(almost) cannot fail; and appendices.
