Are There Just Two Ways To Live?

Over ten years ago, I was equipped to share the Gospel with a little tract called Two Ways To Live. Now it is online and you'll find it all over the place.

I love it for two reasons. First, it is easy to remember. Second, it tells the whole story. In a biblically illiterate culture like ours we just can't start by telling people about Jesus. We have to start with the fundamentals. Two Ways does just that. 

We shouldn't let ignorance of the gospel be one of the reasons we fail to share the gospel. 

I'm very excited that our Shepherding Group at MVBC (this is our Sunday morning adult Sunday school) is committed to learning this gospel outline. We are going to start this Sunday! I pray that as we learn the gospel better we will share the gospel more!

Berkley,

Thanks for this. Yes, an amazing model of evangelism for us!

Amen brother Aaron!
I love Paul's evangelism in Acts 17. Note his outline:

1st - God the Father as Creator and Sovereign Lord
24 The God who made the world and everything in it, being Lord of heaven and earth does not live in temples made by man, 25 nor is he served by human hands, as though he needed anything, since he himself gives to all mankind life and breath and everything.

2nd – God the Father in Control of Human History
26 And he made from one man every nation of mankind to live on all the face of the earth, having determined allotted periods and the boundaries of their dwelling place,

3rd – God’s Desire to have Men Seek and Find Him
27 that they should seek God, in the hope that they might feel their way toward him and find him. Yet he is actually not far from each one of us, 28 for "'In him we live and move and have our being'; as even some of your own poets have said, 'For we are indeed his offspring.'

4th – The One True God can Never be a Fabrication of Humans
29 Being then God’s offspring, we ought not to think that the divine being is like gold or silver or stone, an image formed by the art and imagination of man.

5th – The Command to Repent of Sin
30 The times of ignorance God overlooked, but now he commands all people everywhere to repent,

6th – The Warning of Future Judgment in Righteousness by Jesus
31 because he has fixed a day on which he will judge the world in righteousness by a man whom he has appointed;

7th – The Unfalsifiable Proof of God’s Claims
and of this he has given assurance to all by raising him from the dead."
