GA Tech Table (Notes for Christians Manning the Outreach)

Notes for the Christians working the table:

The Gospel of Jesus Christ –Scripture references to prove God as 1) Almighty Creator 2) Owner of everything 3)Holy 4) Law Giver/Judge

We will have a list of Scriptures to prove that the operations of man’s conscience are proof of God’ justice and that the unsaved man’s conscience will be his “tormenter” in hell; Man’s sin draws God’s wrath upon him; when God first begins doing a work of conviction in a man’s heart, He begins by showing the man how desperate his situation is---and how awful his dilemma is; only when the sinner has lost all faith in what he can do does the Holy Spirit reveal the freeness of the offer of Christ in the Gospel; God’s diagnosis is intensely humbling—sinners do not want to believe they are helpless, so they make an effort to build a bridge to God through religious efforts; God has built the only bridge of salvation from Christ to the sinner. (All of these points have Scripture references)
