There are four keys to evangelism. They're "those who have been reserved," the "places that have been prepared," "those who possess the things of God" who can see those three, and "those who have infinite strength." For those who enjoy God's answers, He attaches those who've been reserved. Then, what are the answers that you should enjoy? Jesus raised 12 apostles and 70 workers, and He made them experience the Calvary incident where Christ finished everything. (John 19:30) Also, for 40 days, He gathered them on the Mt. of Olives and had them focus on the works pertaining to God's Kingdom and the filling of the Holy Spirit. (Acts 1:3 & 8) Holding onto these covenants, the disciples gathered in Mark's upper room; experienced tremendous power; and came to their complete answer, (Acts 2:1-47) When Calvary, the Mt. of Olives, and Mark's upper room are set for you and your church, God will attach those who've been reserved.

1. Original Man - Spiritual Being
God is surely alive and loves you. Originally, as a spiritual being, you were created to communicate with God. Human beings are absolutely useless if they don't know God.

2. The Fundamental Problem - Genesis 3
However, because of sin, man was completely separated from God. The one who instigated this was none other than Satan. This is the "Genesis 3 problem." As a result, humans could never go to God again.

3. The Way - Christ
That's why the way prepared by God is Christ who took up the cross and opened the way to meet Him, (John 14:6) This Christ is none other than Jesus. When people accept Jesus as their Savior, the Holy Spirit will come upon them.

4. Acceptance (John 1:12, Romans 10:9~10, & Revelation 3:20)
The moment people accept Christ, the Holy Spirit will be with them through the Holy Trinity, and they'll become children of God.

The conclusion of Jesus' public ministry is that "Jesus is the Christ."

[Covenantal Prayer] Dear God, may the covenants and power of Calvary; the Mt. of Olives; and Mark's upper room be completely set in all believers and churches. May I experience those who've been reserved by You being attached to me. In Jesus Christ's name, I pray. Amen.
