Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did exhort you by us; we beseech you in Christ's name, be ye reconciled to God. - 2 Corinthians 5:20How to Bring Men to Christ sheds light on how to reach the lost with the gospel - not new light, but tested and true light. Reuben A. Torrey will show you how to use appropriate, applicable Bible passages to reach every kind of lost individual. Regardless of the angle the lost may use to try to justify why they remain in their sad condition, Torrey offers Scripture passages and biblical principles that have proven to reach even the most stubborn of the unsaved.This is an excellent resource and training manual to equip individuals and groups to share the gospel with the lost.Some of the topics covered in this book: Dealing with yourself first Dealing with the indifferent or careless Dealing with people who desire to be saved, but do not know how Dealing with those who desire to be saved but who have difficulties Dealing with those who entertain false hopes Dealing with those who lack assurance and dealing with backsliders Dealing with professed skeptics and infidels Dealing with the complaining Dealing with those who wish to put off a decision until some other time Dealing with the willful and the deceived The baptism of the Holy Spirit

Have ye received the Holy Spirit since ye believed? - Acts 19:2Scripture clearly separates being born again, the baptism of the Holy Spirit, and being filled with the Holy Spirit. These three are not lumped together as one in Scripture. Instead, they are presented as separate experiences for the Lord's people.Today, however, few people know exactly what the Scriptures say regarding the Holy Spirit, and the consequence is men trying to do things in their own strength. Sadder still is how one group denies the power of the Holy Spirit, while another group pursues the things of the Spirit more than they pursue Christ Himself. Somewhere in the middle is the truth. This book takes a close look at Scripture to see what the Lord Himself tells us regarding His Holy Spirit and how it relates to us today.Chapters included in this book: What Is the Baptism with the Holy Spirit?

Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit and watching in this with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints - Ephesians 6:18Prayer. Satan laughs as he looks at the church today and says to himself, "You can have your Sunday schools and your young people's small groups, your boys' and girls' programs, your vacation Bible schools, your Christian schools, your elegant churches, your retreats, your music programs, your brilliant preachers, and even your revival efforts - as long as you don't bring the power of almighty God into them by earnest, persistent, believing, mighty prayer."It is not necessary that the whole church prays to begin with. Great revivals always begin first in the hearts of a few men and women whom God arouses by His Spirit to believe in Him as a living God, as a God who answers prayer, and upon whose heart He lays a burden from which no rest can be found except in persistent crying unto God.May God use this book to inspire many who are currently prayerless, or nearly so, to pray earnestly. May God stir up your own heart to be one of those burdened to pray, and to pray until God answers.About the AuthorReuben Archer Torrey traveled all over the world leading evangelistic tours, preaching to the unsaved.
