A question for Christians who believe they must share the gospel with others. |

Please give this some thought.
If you ask me for a piece of cake, would you prefer to receive it from me
(A) served on a silver platter with social niceties and a wish for your enjoyment, or will you be satisfied
(B) if I grasp a handful of Black Forest Gateaux, squish it between my fingers, and smear it all over your face?
Is it preferred for Christians to share the gospel with others using method A or method B?
What would Jesus do? References to Jesus cleaning the temple and/or slagging off the Pharisees for their hypocrisies must not form part of your answer.
How do you think (chapter and verses please) Jesus wants his Gospel Gateaux presented to make it attractive to those yet to decide for him?

Clarification/Follow-up by Itsdb on 04/01/07 12:51 pm: Prince, we don't smash the gospel in people's faces ... it's just sometimes people need a little more than a piece of cake to get them pointed in a better direction, wouldn't you say? Clarification/Follow-up by PrinceHassim on 04/01/07 9:20 pm: I think you, know what I am saying.

As plain, sincere and recognizable as piece of cake on a plate - with frosting on top. If you'll notice, presenting it this way results in both difficulty recognizing the cake and the recipient seeing what you're offering...
But then again, some people need a bit more 'encouragement' than others.
