Titus  3:5    "Not  by  works  of  righteousness  which  we  have  done,  but
                according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and
                renewing of the Holy Ghost;"


                                  DELIVERY OF A GOSPEL PRESENTATION

                                                 ORDER OF VERSES

                One effective and easy-to-remember strategy is to let the scripture explain
                itself with an unbroken line of CROSS-REFERENCES.  A verse will have a
                key word in it that leads you to another verse with the same word in it which
                further explains the last verse in the line.  The second verse also has another

                word in it which leads to another verse that explains it, and so on and so
                forth until you reach the final verse.  For example:

                Romans 3:23 says you've "sinned," Romans 6:23a says the consequence of
                that "sin" is "death," Revelation 21:8  says there's a "second death" which
                is a lake of fire, Romans 6:23b says through "Jesus" we can get the opposite
                of that "death," Revelation 1:5 says "Jesus...washed us from our sins in

                his own blood," Ephesians 1:5-7 says that "blood"  is applied by  "grace,"
                Ephesians 2:8 says that "grace"  is received "through faith,"  and Romans
                10:8-13 explains how to know when you have "faith."

                If you read all those verses in order, you'll rarely have to explain much.

                                     REMEMBERING/RECALLING VERSES


                A "cheat-sheet" with a list of categorized verses you commonly use can be
                attached  to  the  inside  of  your  Bible  with  paper  clips.    You  can  stealthily
                check this sheet during your presentation to remind yourself what to read
                until you have the verse references and/or pages memorized.  Or you can
                write the citations or page numbers in the margins.

                But study the Bible so you will be able to answer questions with verses that

                you never thought to write down.  Never be answerless on the same subject
                twice.  If you don't know the answer to something, find it before your next
