Basics For Soul Winning:

1.  Purchase a pocket size NT (you can write the soul winning plan verses as references in the chronological order you will be reading them). For example: If you start with Romans 3:23 at the end of that verse write the next verse you will be using.

2.  Learn and memorize the basic Book of Romans salvation verses: memorize these verses: Romans 3:10, 3:23, 6:23, 10:9-10 & 10:13. (Press the Salvation button above to see the verses I use when sharing the gospel).

3.  Just ask, "If you died today, do you know you would go to heaven?"  If they say no or I don't know, ask, "Would you like for me to show you how?"

4.  As you share the Word, show them in the Bible what you are reading.   Try to get couples to sit together and kneel in front of them and show them verses in your Bible as you read them.

5.  Ask them, "Would you like to call upon the name of the Lord and ask Him to save you right now? I would be glad to lead you in a prayer."
