Proclaim the Good News
The word “evangelism” does not actually occur in Scripture. The Greek word, euangelion , is the actual proclamation of good news of any sort. However, the verb euangelizo (“to evangelize”) is used over fifty times of believers who were presenting the good news of God’s love through Jesus Christ with the intent of persuading men and women to repent and receive God’s forgiveness. Early Christians spontaneously evangelized as they proclaimed and preached the Good News everywhere!
(See Mark 1:1; Luke 4:18–19; 1 Corinthians 15:1–4.)
