Catch Hells Best Kept Secret Composed By Ray Comfort Expressed As Print

this book. So powerful and full of truth, “This book should be in the hands of every believer, ”
Leonard Ravenhill Okay, so Im going to try to keep this short, at least as short as possible,

I really like Ray Comfort! Ive seen most of his documentaries, however this was my first book of his that Ive read.
He has such a passion for sharing the gospel to lost souls!

This book helped and supported me tremendously, I cant wait to go out again and talk to some people about Christ, This book instilled a passion in me, Sadly, I cant do anything rn cause of this dang quarantine, but as soon as its out, watch out world,

The step by step approach to making someone receptive to the gospel and then step by step method on how to share the gospel were tremendously helpful.
I also really love Ray Comforts style of soul winning, It just makes so much sense, even tho i guess Id never done it that way before

But anyway, I said I was gonna keep short so I should stop

But happy reading guys!! And stay safe please! Evangelical success is at an alltime low.
Why are so many unbelievers turning away from the message of the gospel Doesn't the Bible tell us how to bring sinners to true repentance Using lively anecdotes from his own experiences, evangelist Ray Comfort presents the key that unlocks the door of men's souls.
If you're experiencing evangelical frustration over lost souls, unrepentant sinners, and backslidden "believers," then look no further, This radical approach could be the missing dimension needed to win our generation to Christ, Discover the secret to leading others to genuine repentance, and make each moment of your life count for the kingdom of God! This book makes four points:the point of the Law is to prove to us our defect,that means that the Law holds a special place in helping us realize our need for Christ's redemption,false conversions can frequently be attributed to one not fully understanding that he/she needs salvation or that he/she is unable to accomplish or contribute anything to that salvation, andthus the principle of the Law that one is defective and unable to do anything about it is a necessary prerequisite to the Gospel that God has provided in Christ salvation in its entirety which is conferred on the basis of trust in Him.


Great points. Timeless truth. But, unlike in past years, I can no longer get wholeheartedly behind Ray's evangelism methods, I don't think they're "bad" by any means, And, with some people, they are quite effective, I myself used a form of the "Way of the Master" method with hundreds of people over the course of two or three years.
But I now have some reservations as to the claim or spirit of some of its proponents that this approach is universally applicable, I am also disappointed in the deemphasis on the building of relationships, focusing instead entirely on vying for the "quick sale, " I think, in the honest effort to produce balance, the result has been to tilt practical Christianity in the way of the agenda, performance orientation, and the counting of numbers.


If you want a book to introduce you to some almost lost thought on the use of the Law in the New Covenant, then this is a good book.
And worth the purchase, too, but I don't know that I would suggest those of Ray's books which have more to do with evangelism.
If you choose to read this, then I heartily suggest you spend a lot of time in Galatians, where you will find out some other things about the Law that might even out your new book a little.


Or, I might altogether suggest an alternative simply and honestly, not in a sarcastic kind of way: read Paul's works in a translation you understand well.
Witnessing to others is an awesome experience, No matter how many times you do it, each and every time is exciting and nerve wrecking, In this book, Ray Comfort takes you through some basic steps to help you evangelize better, as well as to grasp the truth of the Law.
I loved how it was laid out and written, I found his own personal evangelistic moments and interactions to be the most helpful, We need to be a people on fire for the Lord! If a reader needs a dose of nutty, Mr, Comfort rarely disappoints. The author is mostly harmless, Then again, I haven't met anyone in person who takes him seriously, The author builds his case that the reason why so many new converts he actually saysof converts from crusades fall away from their new faith is that they were not told the whole counsel of God as to why they should become Christians.
They were told that they should try Christianity because it will make their lives better it will help them achieve peace and have a happier marriage and all the rest.
But they weren't told what the Bible teaches: that the only way to escape the wrath to come is to embrace Christ who will take their punishment for them.
So when things don't go the way they had hoped, they are disillusioned and embittered toward Christianity for not delivering what was promised, Telling people that they stand condemned before the Law of God is not pleasant, but that is the only way people will see their need for a Saviour.


This book is better that I thought it would be, It is thought provoking and convicting for me anyways as it goes beyond teaching the function of the Biblical Law, to speaking to Christians who are not demonstrating a heart for the lost by engaging in personal evangelism.
We have a thousand excuses, don't we, for not getting into the game as it were, The reasons can be pretty strong and deep rooted, and should drive people such as myself to my knees in prayer for deliverance from my fear and inactivity.
Is it Michael Jackson A fantastic book that made such a deep impression on me, It should be on every Christians essential reading list! I agree with this quote! "This book should be in the hands of every believer who has a burden for the lost!" This book is so clear and concise with it's presentation of the gospel and how to effectively share the Good News with others.
But it doesn't stop there! It shows you why the important key of the Ten Commandments is lost in the world today, and how to apply it gently and consistently with the grace of the cross.
The foundation of this book is: Law first the Ten Commandments then Grace the sacrifice of our sins on the cross, Otherwise, the message of the cross won't make sense to a sinner who doesn't see his need for the Savior, That's what the Law does! It makes the Cross make Sense!! I also find the study questions and answers in the back of the book very applicable.
Warning!

If you have a pulse and Bible read with caution! This book has the potential to ignite the reader and bring many onlookers to watch what a person on fire for Christ should look like! Every Christian should read this book on evangelism! Includes the only way to convert in a humble, effective way and sift out the truly repentant.
A must read to understanding a need for the Savior, If you have any desire whatsoever to reach out to friends and strangers with the Gospel this book is a must, Well your Bible is a must but this will help : Though provoking and conscience wrenching!

This is a great way to learn to talk to others about Christ! A great motivator as well, it really pulls on your heart strings.
I didn't actually read this book but I listened to the sermon which covers the same topic, This sermon goes hand in hand with the sermon/book "True and False Conversion" by Ray Comfort, I listened to both sermons side by side and they were amazing! Lifechanging in fact, They were both in essence about how modern evangelisim is creating a lot of false conversions because we are too anxious to have people convert that we don't tell them all that is to come.
It's about how it is a disservice to preach the cure for sin more than we preach the disease of sin and how it is more effective to preach

the details of the disease before the cure is even addressed.
It talks about how we need to follow in the footsteps of Jesus and watch how he preached the law in order to stop this epidemic of false conversions and a false sense of security we are handing out to so called "Christians.
" I had been discouraged for a while now about modern evangelism and have felt ineffective myself, This book/sermon helped encourage me and bring a lot of misconceptions to light, I absolutely loved it! I would highly reccomend it to anyone who calls themselves a Christian, One of the best books I've read in a long time, This book has made me look at how i evangelise in a completely different way, After reading this book I would recommend watching a few of Ray's witnessing videos and seeing how he implements what is in this book into his own witnessing.
This book is based on a sermon given by Ray Comfort which deals with an issue that has been troubling the church in America for many decades.
The issue of false conversions, and or why so many who profess Christ turn away or live as if no profession had never been made.
His main theme is that all this has happened because we have changed the way the Gospel has been presented, that we the church have moved away from presenting the Gospel in a way that is consistent with the Word of God.
I think he has nailed it, it will make one think, great points to consider, every pastor must read this, or listen to the sermon on line.
Unbelievers reading this book will either repent and believe the Gospel or reject Jesus Christ and, if they die in that state of unbelief, will stand before Jesus Christ at the final Great White Throne Judgment.


Believers reading this book will either heed the wise, Biblical counsel regarding evangelism or will continue to flounder with "relationship building" and "lifestyle evangelism" or, worse, presenting a false gospel that does not confront sinners with their sin, does not call sinners to repentance or does not clearly present the fact that the Resurrection is our only hope of victory over death precisely because the risen Saviour has "died for our sins".


It's an easy read as far as the way the book is written and the enjoyable content, Even so, I've known people personally who found this book to be one of the most difficult they have ever read without finding their soul saved and their life changed.
This book was given to me a few years after I had already repented toward God with faith toward the Lord Jesus Christ, And it definitely left a permanent improvement on my Gospel presentation to lost sinners, as well as my love for my Saviour who died for me and rose again for my justification.
This is a very provocative and motivating book, And it definitely changed my perspective on how I should tell others about God and the Gospel, I strongly recommend this book to every christian, Not a lot that was new to me, and in general I prefer Answers in Genesis's material, but it's still a good book on true evangelism.
It's engaging and revealing enough about our present challenges regarding people who endorse Christianity but do not commit to it, In line with Kierkegaard, Nietzsche, Ray Comfort and what I criticize where each of them are unrelated to one another other than the common religion, Christians have become weak in commitment onto faith and are inhibited and obstructed by fear of man from man, meaning many Christians are afraid of offending another man's feelings and thus, cowardly appeal to their emotions rather than the will and their possible transgressions of Law.

The book gives important point about making believers and Christians conscious of Law of God and how the Law is used to measure the depth of sin, rather than stating the obvious that sin exist due to transgression of the Law.
In them being conscious of the Law, they become conscious of the depth of their own sins which likely results in sense of guilt and the desire to confess.
This is conviction. Making them commit to repentance, to regret their sins and correcting their actions in according to their own sins, is to convert them, The book lays this out quite well,
Too many churches and communities only preach about love, peace and joy and who can deny wanting these things, removing the importance of judgment, Law, sins and plausible transgressions.
They preach about these things in fear of offending anyone and preach them ad nauseum, It ought to be mostly about the Law and judgment and least about grace, love and mercy, as the book writes,
It gives quite the relating and realistic anecdotal and imaginative scenarios so to connect with the Biblical Laws, content and meaning, and their intended purposes.

All in all, it's a decent book about pressing issues in nowadays faithless and weakly faith world, pointing out that too many Christians have become quite docile, weak and afraid of commitment and staying passively away from triggering anyone, and how to deal with it.
This man is a lot better at witnessing than others, I liked his insight. Shows how to evangelize using the Law as the measuring stick that should convince people of their guilt before God, Don't agree with all of the "signs" that someone is a believer as he illustrates in this book, but overall a good read, "Hell's Best Kept Secret" is a book about evangelizing, In it Ray Comfort shows how to actually lead people to Christ, and not just get them to make "decisions" for Christ,
One of his biggest points is that you can't show a nonChristian their need of a Savior without using the Law, and showing them how they have personally broke it.

Obviously, there are a couple areas where I disagree with Ray Comfort, but overall this is an EXCELLENT book!!,
