Correspondence Courses in Evangelism and Missions

By CJ Boshoff, 25.04.09 | Comments
The Correspondence Course in Evangelism (CCE) was born out of the Scriptural inspiration and many years of dealing with laymen in the fields to equip the ordinary laymen in his, ministry to the world. There exist many courses in the world today to be equipped, however, there seems to be a true lack in that most teach such basics, that many are not been fully equip to be effective in reaching the lost for Christ. This course is much about laying a foundational structure whereupon most other courses may really finds its effectiveness. One of the Basic needs in many trying to convey the gospel message is really to effectively and soundly convey it to others. Few can truly effectively share their faith. After starting out – how difficult that in many cases are – many times end up in a dead end. Many cannot really go through to reach not merely the mind but the heart of the lost. That makes this course more effective in that it not merely equip the mind of the worker, that will mostly result in reaching merely the minds of those he witness to, but it also aims at the hearts of those who share the gospel. One doesn’t merely need witnesses but true witnesses. The whole course is founded and build upon the admonition of the Apostle Paul to young Timothy in 1 Timothy 4:16:

“Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this thou shalt both save thyself, and them that hear thee.”

We believe that in this admonition to Timothy is laid hidden the true effectiveness in any work for God. This brings personal work to its real effectiveness. In modern evangelism the very essence that Paul admonished Timothy here is lost! You scarcely find it among most courses in evangelism today. Modern evangelism have watered down the gospel to some 4 spiritual laws God wants you to know, or 7 steps to find God or a sinners prayer or what are mostly known today as “accepting Jesus as your personal Savior!” What Paul admonished Timothy is vital to anyone that will work for the cure and salvation of souls. Thus, the Correspondence Course in Evangelism covers two basic areas of evangelism: “Take heed unto thyself…” that is the area of the worker; “and unto the doctrine…” that is the area of the message. In this course both these two areas are covered for “in doing this thou shall both save yourself and them that hear you…” This is exactly what this course is all about.



The content of this course deals with subjects everyone who present the gospel or who evangelize someone else needs to be fully equip or furnish with so that they may be instrumental in bringing the lost to Christ. It deals with the doctrine of God, the doctrine of sin, the depravity of man, the nature of God, the nature of Christ, the gospel, forgiveness, the true nature of faith and repentance, etc! It also looks at various Scriptural references in the ministries of Jesus, Paul, Peter, etc and brings home certain principles on which evangelism must be laid. Then it equip the man in becoming a vessel of honor in the Masters hand and deals with subjects like consecration, prayer, how to be filled with the Holy Spirit, its effectiveness and unction, and more. Every Christian should be able to lead someone else to Christ and everyone that wants to reach others effectively with the gospel must equip himself or herself, this course will do just that.
Subjects includes:

  • Evangelism Fundamentals
  • The Revelation of God
  • The doctrine and Study of God
  • The doctrine and study of man
  • The Gospel
  • The Heart and Mind
  • The Final Judgement
  • True and False Conversion
  • The Spirit Filled Life, etc                           

Duration

The duration of the course may be completed within four months from initial start up. However, the whole purpose of the course is based on laying FOUNDATIONAL structures in those that will present the gospel. Laying Foundational structures is hard work. It is therefore more advisable to lay it more sure and to be sound. Hastiness throughout the course will result in less effectiveness. After each assignment is sent back, the next lesson will be available. This course is designed to equip especially laymen and pastors, evangelists, normal everyday Christians to equip them effectively and Biblically to reach the lost for Christ
