Thank you and I am much helped by what you have written. I shall take it on board in my evangelism preparation. However, would you not agree that we have to build a bridge to our listeners? I am soo doing a mission in a Muslim country. I was reading Psalm 37. I have discovered that not only does the Koran recognise the Psalms but actually quotes Psalm 37:"The righteous Will inherit the earth." Here is a bridge to the world of Islam and Jesus brings the promise of land to a beautiful fulfilment in his Kingdom plus a new heaven and new earth. Build a biblical bridge not a quasi spiritual one.
