Abstract

The rise of postmodernism has created significant challenges for Christian theology and evangelism, particularly through the influence of relativism, subjectivism, and the rejection of objective truth. This study explores the theological implications of postmodern thought on evangelistic practices and argues for the necessity of maintaining biblical fidelity amid changing cultural perspectives. Employing a qualitative theological research design through document analysis and biblical-theological analysis, the study examined biblical texts and scholarly literature related to Scripture, Christology, hermeneutics, postmodernism, and evangelism. Findings reveal that contemporary evangelism faces the challenge of balancing cultural engagement with theological faithfulness, as attempts to accommodate cultural expectations may weaken biblical authority and distort the gospel message. The study affirms Jesus Christ as the foundation of objective truth and emphasizes that evangelism must remain rooted in Scripture rather than shifting cultural values. As a practical contribution, the study proposes the G.O.S.P.E.L. Evangelism Program, a theological framework designed to equip believers for biblical proclamation, community engagement, evangelistic leadership, and lifelong discipleship in a postmodern context.
