    PERSUASIVENESS
    vs
    Contentiousness





      What is Persuasiveness?

    Guiding vital truths around another's mental roadblocks.
    It's related to the motivational gift of Prophesy



    Scripture Text:

    "And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient...."  -   2 Timothy 2:24



    Some of the Attributes:
     

  • Directing others to see issues from God's point of view.  (a.c.e.)
  • Learning how to guide important truths around the mental roadblocks.
  • Thinking through all the objectives before presenting our case.
  • Demonstrating commitment to our convictions by the example of our lives.
  • Understanding the basic needs of our opponents.



    Questions to ask yourself:

    1.  When someone disagrees with you, are you more concerned about proving your point or winning his spirit?
    2.  Do you know how to detect a scorner?
    3.  Is one who rejects Scriptures able to draw you into an argument?
    4.  Do personal weakness diminish the effectiveness of your public message?



    Projects and Bible Study Questions to help instill this quality:  

  • How did the early church persuade people to come to Christ?
  • Read some of the messages preached by the apostles and see how they persuade men to become believers.
  • We need to learn how to win the spirits of men and women.  How do we do that?
