Now, when I first started out soul winning, I was taught the basic soul winning plan
that was around before I was born, typical just Romans road soul winning, the type
of soul winning that my parents did when they were younger, the type of soul winning that
churches have done for a long time. And my method of soul winning is pretty close to that method.
But I'll tell you the big difference. The one thing I tweaked when I started soul winning was
that I added that question about eternal security. See, everything else I was taught by others of,
you know, asking them where they go to church, do you know for sure if you died today you go
to heaven, how do you know you're going to heaven, that type of thing. But they never asked that
question of can you lose it. I'll tell you why I added that question because I just went soul
winning so many times and I would run into people that I knew weren't saved. Roman Catholics,
people that are just part of denominations that are very workspace, but they'd give me an
answer like, oh yeah, you just have to receive Christ as Savior or accept Jesus into your heart
or something like that. And they'd give me that answer and I saw so many soul winners that I would
be with just accept that answer. Oh great, then you're saved then. Yeah, that's exactly what
we believe. But I'm thinking to myself, this person's a Roman Catholic or this person's a
Oneness Pentecostal. You know, these people, they don't believe that that's all you have to
do. So I found that that other question of can you lose it, man, that really opened the
door to give a lot of people the gospel that a lot of my old soul winning partners
would have just pronounced them saved and moved on to the next door, when in reality that person
was not saved. And make no mistake about it, we strongly believe that if a person doesn't
believe in the eternal security of the believer, that person's not saved. And you're going to
hear that a lot at this soul winning conference because that's a key point. And you know,
I don't want to steal my own thunder or Pastor Jimenez's thunder on those points,
but we strongly believe that. So when it comes to starting the conversation,
that can be a diagnostic question that can help us to realize where people are in error.
