Rescue The Perishing
Welcome to RTP
We hang out at concerts, bars, parades, campuses, & events (Luke 7:34) . We are friends to gangsters, drug dealers, whores, pimps, drunkards, & party-freaks (Proverbs 27:6). We go where the people are to warn them of the wrath of God to come. The gospel of Christ is the power of God unto salvation (Romans 1:16) and how shall they hear without a preacher (Romans 10:14)?
Open air evangelism isn't anything new. In fact, it's more Biblical to preach outdoors than it is to preach indoors. Some of the early reformers were street preachers... perhaps you will recognize a few names below:

Christian, when was the last time you took your faith seriously? Are you asleep in the LIGHT?
· If you really believe in a fiery hell, why don’t you warn anyone? Are you selfish, unbelieving, or LAZY?
· If you don’t warn the unbeliever, who will?
· When you die, what will your Lord think of your effort of reaching out to the lost?

ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS -
How can a person be saved?
· Romans 10:9-10 (KJV) That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
· Acts 3:19 (KJV) 19 Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out
· Prov 28:13 (KJV) 13 He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy.
· Romans 1:16 (KJV) 16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth;
· 2 Cor 7:10 (KJV) 10 For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of:
· Simply put, we are saved by putting our faith in Christ for what he did for us on the cross. He paid the penalty of sin for us. When we realize our sinfulness and come to Jesus with a repentant heart, he will cleanse us from all iniquity. Ask and he you will receive. Seek and you will find.
· What evidence do you have that there is a God?
· As the defendant of this question, the burden of proof lies on the plaintiff. I have a right to remain silent and the accuser need to prove that there is no God.
· When you look at this web site, the site itself is evidence that there was an intelligent designer. It would be ridiculous and laughable to state that this web site occurred by random chance. How much more intricate is this world and universe than this web site? There is no comparison. The universe itself is evidence of an intelligent designer and to think that it happened as a result of random chance is ridiculous and laughable. God is the intelligent designer.
· Psalms 19:1 (KJV) 1 The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork.
· Romans 1:20 (KJV)20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:
· I know of several people that call themselves Christians and yet don’t act any different than anyone else. Why?
· Matt 7:21-23 (KJV) 21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
· 1 John 1:5-7 (KJV) 5 This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. 6 If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth: 7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin
· 1 Cor 6:9-11 (KJV) Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God?Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, 10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. 11 And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.
· If you are walking in unrighteousness, then you are unrighteous. If you are a person that habitually sins, then you are a sinner and need to repent. Many people call themselves Christians and haven’t been born-again. Don’t let people take your eyes off a Holy and Righteous God. Man will fail you, God will not. However, you can conquer sin through Christ. Romans 6:14 tells us that sin shall not have dominion over you. You can have freedom from sin in this life. Jesus came to take away the sins of the world. If a person is habitually practicing sin, they are NOT SAVED.
· I was saved/baptized/confirmed as a child so I am going to heaven no matter what I do. I’m eternally secure, right?
· Uh… no. Using the scriptures above, if you are living in sin, YOU AREN’T SAVED.
· I’m not going to use this web-site as an avenue to solve the Calvinism vs. Arminian debate. However, I will staunchly stand on scriptures that indicate that a righteous man does righteousness and a sinner sins.
· Any doctrine that gives ANYONE a license to sin is a DAMNABLE heresy. Don’t be deceived.
· 1 John 3:7-8 (KJV) 7 Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous. 8 He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning
· How can a loving God allow bad things to happen to people? I.E. murders, accidents, cancer, tsunamis, etc…
· The presence of evil in this world doesn’t prove that God is unrighteous. It proves that there is evil in this world. Sin is the reason all bad things happen. And sin is a result of rebellion towards God.
· How can you reconcile the Bible with evolution?
· You can’t. Evolution is a fairy tale that requires far more faith to believe in than the Bible.
· Evolution is a THEORY, not a fact.
· Evolution is not even a scientific theory because it can’t be repeated nor observed.
· Darwin himself even stated that the chief weakness in his theory is the lack of transitional forms. There are NO transitional forms, EVER.
· “God doesn’t believe in evolution therefore it can’t exist…” think about it… ;)

Ask yourself, “Do I fear man more than GOD or do I fear GOD more than MAN?”
You will answer to GOD on judgment day, not man...
