Anti-Christ’s version of evangelism: “Everyone Can!”
Evangelize that Para-dig’em, brother!.
It was the very same fallen souls like Southern Baptist Ministers that made fun of the prophets in the guise of having a superior emotional common sense than the prophets that they supposedly got “from Scripture” and then “mourned” over the “people”.
Such one’s would have called Isaiah and Ezekiel a fool for “walking butt neked for a year. Every time we say them coming we had to send the kids in the house!. Then he was carrying a sack of clothes on his back and digging through a wall in front of everybody”, –that guy laid on one side for a year, didn’t get up the whole time, rolled over on the other side and complained about his back. I said, dang fella, get up!” “–and then, get this, after all that, when everyone knew how crazy he was and his wife was the only one who really stood by him -all that time —she dies and he don’t even cry for her! That’s just the kind of guy he was! And he wants to say HE was the real prophet as he talked about creatures with four faces, wings, wheels and half a calf’s foot!”
excerpted from:Southern Baptists seek revival as evangelism sputters
For the last two years, the annual meetings of Southern Baptists have emphasized baptisms and evangelism, with local pastors immersing new converts in pools prominently placed in the arenas where they gathered.
This year, when Southern Baptists meet June 12-13 in San Antonio, the focus will be on prayer for revival. But officials continue to hope for the same result: a new energy that will reverse declining baptism rates and barely lukewarm increases in church membership.
“I think we’ve been trying to raise baptisms in nonrevived churches among nonrevived people,” said Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) President Frank Page, a pastor in Taylors, S.C. “The only key to turning baptisms around is a revitalization of God’s Holy Spirit.”
…
Welch, who crisscrossed the country in a large bus touting his “Everyone Can!” baptism campaign, said he never expected to meet the goal by its October 2006 deadline. Nonetheless, he said some churches were energized - with several baptizing 100 or more in one service.
“I was surprised that we still fell 7,000 or more short,” he said. “Once this thing gets into a nosedive, it’s hard to pull it up. That’s what we’re fighting right now.”
Experts inside and outside the church point to all kinds of reasons for the seeming malaise, from apathy within to lack of interest without. Some question whether older approaches to evangelism still fit modern-day needs. Others wonder if the conservative leadership’s views on doctrine and values have chased people away.
When Southern Baptists meet in San Antonio, one item on the agenda will be a new national evangelism strategy to try to turn things around.

If you sell a product, it is then necessary that you teach those to whom you hope to sell it that they have the “ability” to buy it as a gift from “God” and in the same speech/mind as you have already got. “It turns out after much study and research that you’ve the free will to choose what I say is truth!” would be your constant mantra/lie.
And just what is the supposed effect of the “evangelism” done after and during the much sought for “revival”? More souls like themselves. Period. People who, after the indoctrination/education/more-of-the-free-will-lie act and speak exactly like those from which they “received” “baptism” and more people who need to keep coming back to “receive” every “how-to” anti-Christ as the free will lie can think up.
Not a day goes by but the lying spirits in the flesh of an obstenible Christian somewhere isn’t moaning about a need for “revival” when in truth all they ever really mean is that they want more people to think and act like themselves: “choosing Jesus” as publically as possible every day. What actual and non-metaphorical new birth in Jesus Christ? If God as Word were actually speaking through them they wouldn’t STILL be going on about a need for revival and the need for the Holy Spirit to ARRIVE. They are witnesses against themselves that God has never Spoken through them and therefore there have been no new births in Jesus Christ, only a bunch of deceived souls supposedly “choosing Jesus” for the supposed benefit of more material goods and the building fund. They plainly have never been called to preach but made preachers of themselves as mimicks of those truly called of God.
They have lied, cheated, stolen Church resources, driven off those sent to them to rebuke them, quite besides very many being “pastors” by day and FreeMason/Shriner witches by night. And yet in every denomination they publically weep for “revival” without end while supposedly “doing” “evangelism” simultaneously and moaning over “a dip in the number of “baptisms” as if some kind of benchmark of the actual spiritual health of the people before God.
They are those who have never God but who are always wanting God to send people to hear them preach what their best honesty is of the moment on what God might “mean” as supposed will-neutral “holy information”.
They really think that the little kids who try to “lay hands on” their fellow second graders for a small donation and have “visions” to get out of PE are cute.
And their statement of genuine non-understanding of those who are real, literal new creatures in Jesus Christ through whom God actually Speaks and births other new creatures in Jesus Christ? “Those people are against evangelism!”

Jeremiah 2:35-37 And thou sayest, Indeed I am innocent; his anger will turn from me. Behold, I will enter into judgment with thee because thou sayest, I have not sinned. Why dost thou gad about so much, and change thy way? Thou shalt also be brought to shame by Egypt, as thou wast brought to shame by Assyria. Thou shalt indeed go forth from her with thy hands upon thy head; for Jehovah hath rejected those thou confidest in, and thou shalt not prosper by them.
Jeremiah 23:16-18 Thus saith Jehovah of hosts: Hearken not unto the words of the prophets that prophesy unto you: they lead you to vanity; they speak a vision of their own heart, not out of the mouth of Jehovah. They say constantly unto them that despise me, Jehovah hath said, Ye shall have peace. And they say unto every one that walketh in the stubbornness of his heart, No evil shall come upon you. For who hath stood in the council of Jehovah, so that he hath perceived and heard his word? who hath hearkened to his word and listened?
Ezekiel 14:4-11 Therefore speak to them, and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Every man of the house of Israel that setteth up his idols in his heart, and putteth the stumbling-block of his iniquity before his face, and cometh to the prophet, I Jehovah will answer him according to this, according to the multitude of his idols: that I may take the house of Israel by their own heart, because they are all estranged from me through their idols. Therefore say unto the house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Return ye, and turn yourselves from your idols; and turn away your faces from all your abominations. For every one of the house of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn in Israel, who separateth himself from me, and setteth up his idols in his heart, and putteth the stumbling-block of his iniquity before his face, and cometh to the prophet to inquire of me by him, I Jehovah will answer him by myself; and I will set my face against that man, and will make him desolate, so that he shall be for a sign and for proverbs, and I will cut him off from the midst of my people: and ye shall know that I am Jehovah. And if the prophet be enticed and shall speak a word, I Jehovah have enticed that prophet; and I will stretch out my hand against him, and will destroy him from the midst of my people Israel. And they shall bear their iniquity: the iniquity of the prophet shall be even as the iniquity of the inquirer; that the house of Israel may go no more astray from me, neither make themselves any more unclean with all their transgressions; and they shall be my people, and I will be their God, saith the Lord Jehovah.
In the Name of Jesus Christ, Amen
Am I now come up without Jehovah against this place to destroy it? Jehovah said to me, Go up against this land and destroy it. 2 Kings 18:25
Anti-Christ tried the lie that God had sent him to conqueor Jerusalem through the Assyrians. But God says to the worshipers of demons who hate Jesus Christ and Israel: "But I know thine abode, and thy going out, and thy coming in, And thy raging against me." 2 Kings 19:27
