The Motivation and Message of Evangelism

Please explain what is wrong with including the motivation and message of evangelism in an article about evangelism. Thank you. Bushido77 (talk) 11:54, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I quoted the Bible. That is a proper source for Christian evangelism. What source does Wikipedia consider "proper" for evangelism? Bushido77 (talk) 15:07, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I also linked to the Wikipedia page entitled the "Great Commission." I am not certain what reliable sources you are looking for. Bushido77 (talk) 15:27, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Reliable secondary sources that talk about evangelism. Not OR from a primary source. Wikipedia is not a source for itself Golikom (talk) 16:42, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

OK, thanks. I apologize. I thought an article that was approved in Wikipedia would have been vetted and been considered a reliable source. I will look for other sources along with the Bible and Wikipedia. Bushido77 (talk) 17:43, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I don't understand how it is improperly sourced. Some of the sources were encyclopedias and dictionaries. What sources are you looking for? The majority of what I wrote were direct Bible quotes. How can a "quote" be unencyclopedic in tone? While I was searching, I saw other encyclopedias with included Bible quotes. Bushido77 (talk) 03:30, 1 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please discuss on the article talkpage - I replied there. Golikom (talk) 05:15, 1 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

OK thanks. I am new to editing and I am learning. Bushido77 (talk) 11:37, 1 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
