An evangelist is a person with a special gift and a special calling from the Holy Spirit to announce the good news of the gospel. You're an announcer, a proclaimer, an ambassador. And it's a gift from God. You can't manufacture it, you can't organize it, you can't manipulate it.

I study and read and prepare all the time, but my gift seems to be from the Lord in giving an appeal to get people to make a decision for Christ. Something happens I cannot explain. I have never given an invitation in my whole life when no one came.

We are not saved by our view of the Bible. We are saved by our view of Jesus Christ and our acceptance or rejection of him and the life we live after we come to Christ.
