It seems that the first step in carrying this out is to work out whether a person is already a follower of Jesus or not. How can you tell? Relationship, relationship, relationship; working this out begins and ends with relationship. So I guess we’re going to need to be friendly with people we meet: friendly, welcoming, caring, kind, and interested in them more than ourselves.
In any relationship it comes out very quickly where people stand with Jesus. So from there, either we get to share the good news and have the privilege of lovingly introducing them to the Savior of the world or we get to share in our common faith together and encourage one another to follow Jesus with all our hearts.
