I am happlily married with 5 kids. I am an accoutant and worked in an accounting field for over 25 years. I like to make a habit of writing down whenever I have deep thoughts about God (so I won't forget). I really into Reformed Theology that is connected to Presbyterian Church in America.

Personal Evangelism

I do NOT announce to people that I am a Christian, I don't even have a bumper sticker or a fish sign on the car or whatever "advertising" tools that connects to Christianity or denomination. People who KNOWS me personally is my biggest evangelism with my own creditbility. Creditbility is behaving like Christ when you have the title: "Christian". The cross is a symbol of the selfless, others-centered life of Christ. Love alone can make our conduct acceptable to God. Our Christian testimonies (action, words and motives) are important to God because it is motive that gives to every holy act that glorifies God. The Best Evangelist is the Holy Spirit. We are to spread the Gospel and the Holy Spirit will do the rest. Christ is more than a system, tradition, or belief. A Christian who witness to others must have a good reputation, especially to the outsiders who are watching. 1 Timothy 3:7 He must also have a good reputation with outsiders, so that he will not fall into disgrace and into the devil's trap. Evangelism requires courtesy from a believer and be Christ-like. Many have accepted Christ by watching Christians more than talking.
