When you are at work or wherever, do you wonder what you should say to a lost person when given the chance to witness to them? I know that the first thing that runs through my mind is: hey buddy, you need to get saved!

Sometimes you do not have the opportunity or luxury to give an elaborate Gospel presentation, but a few issues and scripture I try to keep memorized for that occasion are:

1. Make sure I try to point out that Jesus Christ is the Son of God incarnate (John 1:1-3, 14).
2. Give a sincere invitation to repent of sin, and by faith to accept Jesus as Savior and Lord (Acts 2:38)
3. Point out the promise of the forgiveness of sins in Him alone, that Jesus is the only way to the Father, and there is no other name under heaven by which man can be saved (John 14:6, Acts 4:12).

I’m not trying to boil it down to a formula, just trying to keep the main issues of salvation fresh in my mind.

Anybody here taken CWT (continuing witnessing training) Baptist class?

Your thoughts?

Being abrasive, like immediately telling someone they are bound for hell, is often a turn off. It may take weeks or months to win someone.

I would start by always living my christianity in the workplace and letting them see your sincerity in what you believe. Then I would pray that God would provide an opening to say what needs to be said. Then when they ask about your belief........go for it and share your testimony and belief with them......:):
