Should we invite unbelievers to church? Sure, why not? Church should be a place where anyone who comes through the doors will hear the gospel of Jesus Christ proclaimed.

00:43

Though they're in the doors, they're still outside the church until they repent of their sin and are reconciled to God in Christ Jesus.

00:50

And don't use gimmicks to get them there. What you win them with is what you win them to. Not one soul has ever come to Christ through pop music or door prizes.

01:21

Word of Christ. So yes, invite your unbelieving friend to church and take the gospel of Jesus Christ to the rest of the unbelieving world when we understand the text.
