The world has focused upon one particular Sunday as a day of remembrance of the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. The world entitled this day Easter, although this was not something which God or Christ asked for. Jesus did ask His followers to remember Him, but not in this manner. During the Last Supper, Jesus instituted a memorial which He asked Christians to do “in remembrance of Me” (Luke 22:19, NASU).
In the world of marketing, many factors are considered when presenting a particular product or message to the public.

A popular door knocking program that has been used to evangelize for Christ has at its center a singular principle: Leave as friends.

This is a generally good principle as it plants a seed that could one day grow to fruition.
