What does the evangelism at your church sound like? When you evangelize your friends and family, what do you say to them? Do you promise, love, joy, peace, and lasting happiness? What was your reason for coming to Christ? Do you see God as a God that only wants to make your life better and that doesn't require anything of you? Is God just an accessory you add to your own life? Was your reason for coming to God merely to have fire insurance? Think about it. Examine yourself to see if you're in the faith (2 Corinthians 13:5).
"The nature of Christ's salvation is woefully misrepresented by the modern-day evangelist. He announces a Savior from hell rather than a Savior from sin. And that is why so many are fatally deceived, for there are multitudes who wish to escape the Lake of Fire who have no desire to be delivered from their carnality and wordliness." ~ Article entitled Saving Faith: Part 1 Signs of the Times by A.W. Pink, circa 1930
