EVANGELISM IN A SOCIAL MEDIA AGE
1Corinthian 9:19 - 23, Mathew 24:14
The advent of information technology in our age affords us an ample opportunity to share the gospel to a wide and far reaching audience in a fast and a very short time. Indeed we can reach the ends of the earth using the power of of technology by leveraging on social media channels.
The social media is an online platform where information are widely spread to a large audience at the click of a button. We can reach those we may not and never have had physical contact with through the social media channels. The gospel if prayerfully communicated through the chat and video window of WhatsApp, Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, Telegram etc can bring the lost to conviction and lead them to the Savior.
The Ethiopian Eunuch didn't have the gospel message directly preached to him first but his heart was set ablazed consequent on the content of what he read in prophet Isaiah's scroll about the coming Messiah. Evangelist Phillip eventually followed up under the Spirit's guidance and preached unto him Jesus (Acts 8:27-35)

Question: Mention the various social medium channels we can explore to share the gospel in our day?

A cursory look at the use of mobile phone by young professionals at work, office and business indicates that a substantial number are on a daily visit to various social media channels either to search or send information to friends, business partners, family relatives or close pal. Some of such people who may not readily accept our invitation to special religious events may be constrained to read through gospel messages and videos delivered directly to their social media handles. We should therefore make use of such avenue to spread the good news of a Savior who died for them to receive justification full and free (John 12:32)

Question: What is the importance of social media in the spread of the gospel?

Online bible study group, seminars and scriptural-based discussion groups where knowledge can be shared with one another can be created using various social media channels. Young professionals who are hungry for more of God and willing to influence others for Him should inspire their followers on various social media channels to godliness and grace.


Question: Can anyone share with us how he/she has been able to spread the gospel using the social media before now?
Meanwhile, with the advent and ever increasing technological inventions in the present age, every young professional should constantly update themselves to fully explore the various channels available on the social media to consolidate our obedience to the Lord's command to GO into the world and preach the gospel to every creature. You can choose to be a social media evangelist in order to complement the conventional means of reaching the lost.
May God make us channels of blessings to others.

Social media is very good and it can help it in evangelizim on the social media you will see post of churches preaching the word of God.
Social media is not online for rubbish and chatting sometimes you use it for Possitive purpose such as evangelizim and so on .

We have to use social media to change time life of people although people can say a lot but your reward is from God .
So going on social media to evengelize is very good because people from a far away distance can also benefit ,and it will change their life for good.

Social media platform is where millions of people gathered together to share thoughts and views so if someone can evangelize on social media there is nothing bad is a form of passing out information to people and to the world .
If you can go on Facebook open a page and then you can bring people online then you evangelize about God and in doing these it is not necessary for people to come down to the church they will see every thing you do online on their cell phone.
Technology has advance so people are use to technology social media evangelisim is more economic and conducive every one will log in on phone,laptops ,I pad and connect with you .

Social media has helped a lot of christians in carrying out evangelism. It is an avenue where one can revise, proofread and rearrange our words before putting into written.
Social media has helped a lot of people who are shy in speaking in public or scared of saying the wrong thing.
Socal media is a platform where you can research and take your time to compose your words.

As social media has its advantages, so it has its disadvantages on Evangelism. So many has depending on it that if they couldn't afford to buy data or their phone is faulty, they cannot evangelise.
At least, it shouldn't alone..we must practice it physically too, but it help those you are always tight with the nature of their job.
