Trans-Christians

If our evangelism does not produce transformation, it may not be accurate to call it evangelism.

“Evangelism” comes from the Greek word evangelion, which means “good news.” The Gospel is news, not advice. News is something new. A reality has changed, and people should know about it. We will never bring people to Christ until the Gospel we preach produces transformation.

People are into all kinds of “trans” things today because they are looking for change. Let us show the world trans-formation of character. We must learn to preach the Gospel with power. Only then will the lost come to Jesus. And only then will a “revival” truly effect the changes America and the world needs.

For the kingdom of God is not a matter of talk but of power.
