IN A NUTSHELL...
The Witnessing Church is a TOTAL PROGRAM OF EVANGELISM which incorporates
the four essential phases of effective lay-evangelism:
1. MOBILIZATION - "LET THE GOSPEL MESSAGE RING
THROUGH OUR CHURCHES SUMMONING THEM TO UNIVERSAL ACTION". - Testimonies Vol 1, p. 14. Hundreds and thousands of our laymen can be inspired to engage in Christian Service if they are aquainted with a PRACTICAL
and WORKABLE plan of soulwinning such as is afforded by the Witnessing Church.
2. TRAINING - "EVERY CHURCH SHOULD BE A TRAINING SCHOOL
FOR CHRISTIAN WORKERS". - Christian Service p. 59. An "on-the-job training",
such as the one which Christ provided to His disciple, is furnished by the Witnessing Church to every church member
who wants to participate in the "unfinished task".
3. ORGANIZATION - "IT IS ESSENTIAL TO LABOR WITH
ORDER FOLLOWING AN ORGANIZED PLAN AND A DEFINITE OBJECT". - Evangelism p. 94. The
usefulness of our resources can be greatly maximized by utilizing efficient organization. Good organization is part and parcel
of the Witnessing Church enabling it to marshall the tremendous power which is found in our laity.
4. OUTREACH - "HUNDREDS AND THOUSANDS WERE SEEN VISITING
FAMILIES AND OPENING BEFORE THEM THE WORD OF GOD". - Testimonies Vol 9, p. 126. WE
NEED TO MULTIPY THE VOICES THAT CAN GIVE THE MESSAGE EFFECTIVELY ON A WORLD-WIDE BASIS. The Witnessing Church fosters
a program of "every-member-evangelism" whose object is the giving of the Everlasting Gospel to a dying world.
