EVANGELISM
MINISTRY |

ministry is designed to
teach and assist in
fulfilling the "going"
and "baptizing" part of
Line Street's mission.
How beautiful upon
the mountains are the
feet of him that
bringeth good tidings,
that publisheth
salvation; that saith
unto Zion, Thy God
reigneth! Isa. 52:7
We live in an age in
which we are bombarded
with negative
information that is
broadcasted and
publicized. But we as
God's children can
spread good news about
God's grace and
salvation. Evangelism is
communicating the Gospel
to people in an
understandable way and
motivate people to
respond to Christ and
become a member of His
Church. John 3:16 tells
us God sent his son to
save us. Now, Christ is
sending us (His
disciples) to save the
lost. Go ye
therefore, and teach all
nations, baptizing them
in the name of the
Father, and the Son, and
of the Holy Ghost Matt
28:18
