Matthew Stuckey here and the basic soul winning tip that we have today is to explain the basics. What I mean by explain the basics is you want to make sure you cover all points even if you think that they already understand. You want to cover points like Jesus was perfect. You want to cover points like Jesus Christ was God and that he rose again. His body rose again. You want to make sure that you cover all the basic things that you might think that everyone already believes. There's a lot of people out there that don't believe hell is a literal place of fire. They don't know that Jesus rose again and a lot of times as a soul winner you might assume that they understand these things when they might not. I remember when I got saved I was very fuzzy on whether or not Jesus Christ was God and whether or not he had lived a perfect life and I was a little bit confused on that and I think it's important when we're given the gospel to not just assume that people already believe these things. Now if you grew up in church you might assume that people already know all these things. You're like oh yeah I heard this from when I was five years old but a lot of people didn't really grow up in church as much and maybe they heard false things from various different people. We just don't know so we want to make sure that we're not just you know going to all these verses explaining it's eternal life you can't lose it but forgetting to cover the basic foundational points like Jesus was a was perfect and that he was God in the flesh and that he rose again. We want to make sure that we cover the basics as well.
