Evangelization and Spiritual Warfare Strategies for the Establishment of Faith Communities

Although there is no direct and express reference to the fact that the biblical evangelists followed precise instructions to carry out the evangelization of the regions, it is possible nevertheless to see in the accounts of the Gospels and Acts of the Apostles a sequence of methodical actions that characterized those who were involved with it.

In the case of Jesus, first of all, the gospels describe that the evangelization of Galilee followed a well-defined pattern of action which may well be considered as the strategy that Jesus used for the evangelization of the region. All the writers left evidence in their accounts that when Jesus reached a different population, the first place he visited was the synagogue of the place,

In the book of the Acts of the Apostles we find another strategy of evangelization, in the account of when Jesus before ascending to heaven gave them instructions on the regions they were to evangelize,

But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth. Acts 1:8

Jesus' instruction on how to evangelize the earth from Jerusalem is undoubtedly a strategy of operation, from Jerusalem to the rest of the world, that is, from a geographical point to cover an entire region, and from there pass to another region.

So, church had to do with the gathering of the saints when they gathered together to celebrate their faith, and this they usually did every Sabbath, which was the custom among them according to the custom inherited from their participation in the synagogue. The churches were instituted by Paul as a permanent center of faith identification.
