                                    EVANGELISM THROUGH SOCIAL MEDIA. Benson Omole Min. 1. INTRODUCTION. HOW HAS SOCIAL MEDIA IMPACTED EVANGELISM? Evangelism is the system of proclaiming, and sharing the good news of God's love for humanity and inviting others to accept the gospel faith and believe in Jesus Christ's life, death, and resurrection. 1Cor. 15:1-4; Rom 5:2; Galatians 1:11; Ro 1:16; 1Co 1:21.

Or, "I know what is right, but I'm not going to do it now. Hell is a long way off...I'll think about that later" These attitudes assure eternity in hell. 3.  God is not willing that any should perish...but if you are willing, you will be responsible, not God's! 2 Pet. 3:9 4.  SOME OF THE THINGS YOU WILL NOT HAVE TO DO IN HELL.   I.  YOU WON’T HAVE TO ATTEND ALL OF THE WORSHIP SERVICES OF THE CHURCH.
