Christian Outreach is About God, Not Us:
 

God provided for the salvation of the world through Jesus' death on the cross.
 

God is the One who seeks and saves (Lk. 19:10), revealing Himself to people (Matt. 11:27; 16:15-17), and drawing people to Himself (Jn. 6:44).
 
If God did not do the seeking, saving, revealing, and drawing of people to Himself, all of our outreach efforts would be meaningless and fruitless.
 
 

He initiates the process by . . .

• assuring people of the reality of His love

  so people can feel and experience for themselves
   
  

• answering their doubts

  so people can know and believe
   
  

• awakening their faith

  so people hear and respond as "faith comes by hearing"
   
  

• authenticating His message of reconciliation

  so people see and become accountable
   
   
  

He uses us in the process as . . .

• we go to God on their behalf

  intercessory prayer, standing in the gap
   
  

• we go to people as His ambassadors

  missions, one-on-one witnessing, visitation, door-to-door, church planting, etc.
   
   
  

He uses us in the process to help . . .

• assure people of His love through consideration and compassion

  benevolence, community outreach
   
  

• answer people's doubts through correction of misconceptions

  apologetics
   
  

• awaken people's faith through communication of God's Word

  preaching and proclaiming (crusades, open air), teaching (one-on-one, neighborhood Bible studies)
   
  

• authenticate the message by characterization through reflection

  lifestyle evangelism
