I just started this Bible Study/Course called "The School of Biblical Evangelism". Man it's large, like 101 lessons!!! It basically teaches how you use the law (10 commandments) to show people their need for Jesus. But that only covers 10 lessons lol. It looks like I will be learning lots of stuff.
The first lesson talks about Jesus, Paul, Stephen, all used the law. One interesting paragraph says this; "Prophecy speaks to the intellect of the sinner, while the Law speaks to the conscience. One produces faith in the Word of God, the other brings knowledge of sin in the heart of the sinner. The Law is the God-given 'key' to unlock the Door of salvation." *
You have to be specific in what a person has done wrong. Most people believe that they are no worse than anyone else and there are far worse people than they are, so it won't make sense to them to tell them about Jesus dying on the cross for their sins unless you are specific about sins. That's why you use the law, so they understand more clearly.
