How Did Jesus Want the Gospel Preached and Evangelism Done?

What does this have to do with the meaning of 'kingdom of God' and 'kingdom of heaven' and if there isa difference?

Nothing . Just a way to avoid the question/discussion

When Jesus ate dinner with "Tax Collectors and sinners" He was being a friend to them. Not once was Jesus telling those who were indeed sinners to "Stop stealing, stop whoring", or anything else like that.

Jesus was a Friend To Sinners.

Jesus didn't tell Zacheus to do anything... Zacheus offered.

Somehow people already know right from wrong.

The word "Gospel" literally means "Good News" .
How bad a person is in God's view is NOT good news. And it's not my job to tell them. It IS MY JOB to tell them how much God has done for me and how good God is. AND how a personal relationship with a loving and kind God is always good.
That sounds more like good news that how I have screwed up over and over again.

Paul did not go around saying, “The kingdom of heaven is at hand.” The message was for Israel only. Miracles accompanied this message.

Matthew 10
5 These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them, saying, Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not:
6 But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
7 And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand.

Let’s take a look at the events given by Luke.

Luke 9
1 Then he called his twelve disciples together, and gave them power and authority over all devils, and to cure diseases.
2 And he sent them to preach the kingdom of God, and to heal the sick.
3 And he said unto them, Take nothing for your journey, neither staves, nor scrip, neither bread, neither money; neither have two coats apiece.
4 And whatsoever house ye enter into, there abide, and thence depart.
5 And whosoever will not receive you, when ye go out of that city, shake off the very dust from your feet for a testimony against them.
6 And they departed, and went through the towns, preaching the gospel, and healing every where.

Later…

Luke 18
31 Then he took unto him the twelve, and said unto them, Behold, we go up to Jerusalem, and all things that are written by the prophets concerning the Son of man shall be accomplished.
32 For he shall be delivered unto the Gentiles, and shall be mocked, and spitefully entreated, and spitted on:
33 And they shall scourge him, and put him to death: and the third day he shall rise again.
34 And they understood none of these things: and this saying was hid from them, neither knew they the things which were spoken.

They had no understanding of the gospel Paul preached.

Later…

Luke 24
6 He is not here, but is risen: remember how he spake unto you when he was yet in Galilee,
7 Saying, The Son of man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again.
8 And they remembered his words,
9 And returned from the sepulchre, and told all these things unto the eleven, and to all the rest.
10 It was Mary Magdalene and Joanna, and Mary the mother of James, and other women that were with them, which told these things unto the apostles.
11 And their words seemed to them as idle tales, and they believed them not.
12 Then arose Peter, and ran unto the sepulchre; and stooping down, he beheld the linen clothes laid by themselves, and departed, wondering in himself at that which was come to pass.

Even after the resurrection, the disciples had no clue and did not believe it.

What Did Jesus Want Preached and Done
God chose Abraham and the people of Israel as His inheritance. God promised Abraham that all the kindreds of the world would be blessed in him. He gave him a promise about his Seed, which refers to Christ. In the Psalms, God tells the Messiah to ask and He will give the nations for His inheritance.

Jesus Christ was declared to be the Son of God with power by the resurrection from the dead. All authority was given to Him in heaven and on earth. The nations belong to Him. God not only interacts with Israel, but the nations are Christ's. So God is calling all men to repent.

When Jesus, after the resurrection, declared that the nations had been given to Him, what did he want the disciples to do? Let us look:

Luke 24
44 And he said unto them, These are the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me.
45 Then opened he their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures,
46 And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behooved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day:
47 And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.
48 And ye are witnesses of these things.

We can compare to I Corinthians 15:1-5. Paul's gospel included 'according to the scriptures.' Compare that to verse 44 above. Compare Paul's points in that chapter-- died, buried, rose again-- to Luke 24:46. Verse 47 tells what Jesus wanted preached. Peter's application of that is through baptism in Acts 2:38.

Consider what Jesus wanted done for spreading the Gospel in Matthew 28.
44 And he said unto them, These are the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me.
45 Then opened he their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures,
46 And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behooved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day:
47 And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.
48 And ye are witnesses of these things.
44 And he said unto them, These are the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me.

Matthew 28
18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.
19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.

Jesus wanted them to go, teach the nations, baptize them, and teach them to observe what he taught.

So what should we focus on when winning souls? We should focus on preaching and doing:
- That Jesus suffered
- That Jesus rose
- Repentance and forgiveness of sins through His name
- Baptizing in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost
- Teaching them to observe Christ's teaching through the apostles.

And all this can be informed with other scripture--- teaching that Christ's sufferings were 'for our sins' for example. We can urge people to be baptized for the remission of sins and tell them to was away their sins, calling upon the name of the Lord, as we see in Acts 22.

If we are going to do this the way Jesus wanted, we should do so, and we should follow the apostle's on how to do that, since this is implied in Matthew 28:19-20.

People Need to Hear the Word to Believe
Also, Romans 10 say that faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of Christ. We are persuading people that a Man rose from the dead. They actually have to have faith. In dealing with an unchurched unbeliever, how likely is it that bits and pieces of the Gospel or other loosely related Evangelical concepts, are going to produce faith? Isn't it better to give them a complete understanding of the Gospel than to quickly march them through a prayer ritual invented about 70 years ago (which has since been stripped of the death of Christ on the cross for our sins and His resurrection)?

No, I was trying to stick with the kingdom of heaven v. kingdom of God question. I didn't think associating one with the coming kingdom of Israel and the other not fit the use of the wording in the Gospels.

Those are the same thing. It's only called Kingdom of Heaven in Matthew while in Mark and Luke it's Kingdom of God. The reason for that is a dogma among the Jewish people, that God's name is so holy that they shall not utter, so they wouldn't take the Lord's name in vain. They use heaven, God's dwelling place as a synonum of God. Today you'll still see somebody type G-d as a redacted version of God, that's an indicator of this dogma.

God is mentioned 48 times in Matthew. Just saying…

And yet not in any kingdom parables. Even when it's the same parable, it's always Kingdom of Heaven in Matthew whereas it's Kingdom of God in Mark and Luke.

Sooo, it’s not the word God, but kingdom of God that was forbidden to say? The two words are not the same. God is a spirit. Heaven is a created place.
