1 Peter 3 Always be ready to make your defense to anyone who demands from you an accounting for the hope that is in you, 16 yet do it with gentleness and respect.We don't evangelize fellow brothers and sisters in Christ. We evangelize the lost. I thought you would have figured out the purpose of this website by now.
The problem is that if a lost soul reads scripture and sees this identification of what an evangeliser is but can't recognise that in them, the 'evangeliser' will be ineffective and maybe worse, drives others off Christ. To be effective we have to be on the same page about what 'gentleness and respect' actually mean to the 'lost' person.
