There are three major zones the marginal regions, which range in width from 8. Cape folded belt, and western plateau slopes a vast saucer shaped interior plateau, separated from the marginal zone by the Great Escarpment and the Kalahari Basin, only the southern part of which projects into north central South Africa. The land rises steadily from west to east to the Drakensberg Mountains part of the Great Escarpment, the tallest of which is Mt. Injasuti 3,4. 08 m1. Lesotho. The coastal belt of the west and south ranges between 1. Cape. North of the coastal belt stretch the Little and the Great Karoo highlands, which are bounded by mountains, are semiarid to arid, and merge into sandy wastes that ultimately join the arid Kalahari. The high grass prairie, or veld, of the Orange Free State and the Transvaal is famous for its deposits of gold and silver other minerals are found in the Transvaals bush veld. From the Drakensberg, the land falls toward the Indian Ocean in the rolling hills and valleys of Natal, which are covered with rich vegetation and, near the coast, subtropical plants, including sugarcane. The two most important rivers draining the interior plateau are the Orange with its tributary the Vaal, which flows into the Atlantic Ocean, and the Limpopo, which empties into the Indian Ocean through Mozambique. Of the fast flowing rivers with steeply graded courses that produce spectacular waterfalls, the largest is the Tugela, which rises in the Mont aux Sources and flows swiftly to the Indian Ocean. South Africa lies almost wholly within the southern temperate zone, and its climate is more equable than that of corresponding northern latitudes because of its surrounding waters. Temperature differentials between east and west coasts stem from the influences, respectively, of the warm Mozambique Agulhas Current and the cold Benguela Current. The average daily minimum temperature at Durban, on the east coast, ranges from 1. July to 2. 1c 7. February on the west coast, at Port Nolloth, the range is from 7c 4. Temperatures are cooler in the highlands at Johannesburg, the average daily minimum is 4c 3. June and July and 1. January. On the high veld there are sharp differences. Rainfall is unpredictable in large parts of the country, and prolonged droughts are a serious restriction on farming in such areas. While the mean annual rainfall is 4. Much of South Africa gets its rain in the summer months, but the western coastal belt is a winter rain area. Along the Cape south coast, rain falls during both seasons. The variety of South Africas climate and altitude accounts for its diversified flora and fauna. Major vegetation zones include the forest and palm belt of the east, south, and southwest coasts the temperate grasslands veld of the eastern portion of the interior plateau the desert and semidesert Karoo vegetation of the western interior and the bushveld savanna of the Kalahari and the northeast. Of the 2. 00 natural orders of plants in the world, over 1. South Africa has over 2. There are 2. 00 species of euphorbia, about 3. Cape Province alone, and more than 5. Wild flowers including the protea, South Africas national flower grow in great profusion throughout the Cape region. Aardvark, jackal, lion, elephant, wild buffalo, hippopotamus, and various kinds of antelope are still found in some parts of the country. In the great game parks, animals may be seen living in natural surroundings. So extensive is the variety both of smaller mammals and of plants that they have not yet all been identified. The number of different kinds of birds is estimated at well over 3. The number of species of insects is estimated at 4. Recent industrialization and urbanization have taken their toll on the South African environment, as have such agricultural practices as veld fires, overgrazing of livestock, and intensive use of pesticides. Soil erosion and desertification are two more significant environmental issues in South Africa. Three hundred to four hundred million tons of soil per year are lost. The countrys limited water resources have been impaired by mineralization, eutrophication, and acidic mine drainage. South Africa has 4. The countrys cities produce about 4. Air pollution in urban areas stems primarily from coal burning and motor vehicle exhausts. The government has taken steps to address these issues Johannesburg was the site of the 2. World Summit on Sustainable Development, and South Africa is seen as a leader of the developing world on issues such as climate change, conservation, and biodiversity. The principal environmental bodies are the Department of Water Affairs, the Department of Environmental Affairs, and the Department of National Health and Population Activities. Pursuant to a government white paper about environmental conservation policy, approved in 1. It included development of a comprehensive technology for treating sewage and industrial effluents, surveys of threatened natural habitats, research on marine pollution, monitoring of atmospheric pollutants, and a program of environmental education in the public schools.

He knows what effective personal evangelism is all about because he has lived it so well. His life is a wonderful illustration of the adage, It is better to see a sermon, than to hear one. Thanks for the sermon Dad I EXPRESS SPECIAL THANKS TO. The Eastside church in Bowling Green, Kentucky where this material first began in its embryonic form in 1.

REVISED 79. 5HOW TO DO PERSONAL EVANGELISMTHE NUTS AND BOLTSby Brent Hunter. Course Description This is a practical how to approach to evangelism. It is designed to deal with what to say and how to say it. If you have not been exposed to this training at least once, please give yourself the opportunity to see how every Christian can and should be a soul winner. Once one has taken the class, it may be worthwhile to take it again every four or five years or so to refresh the students memory and just as importantly, to renew ones motivation and inspiration for this, the greatest of all worksThe authors recommendation is that the entire congregation go through this course at the very beginning. It then should be a part of the regular curriculum of a local congregation and be offered on a rotating basis regularly during the regular Bible class period. The reason it needs to be offered regularly is so that all new converts and new members can receive this training as they come into the congregation. To work, it must become a part of the on going training program of the congregation. The author has designed this material with that in mind. Find a teacher that has had some successful experience in evangelism if at all possible, so he has some personal credibility to teach this class. Class discussion is encouraged and desired. Most classes deal with what the truth is this class deals with how to share the truth the class members probably already know. I can say this, because we are dealing primarily with teaching first principles only. However, even though this is so, the class is not designed for non Christians or to be taught in a class with first time visitors. They will most likely find talking about them and how we are going to reach them, with them in the audience as embarrassing and offensive. It is in short, designed to be a series of fencing lessons to help Christians wield the Sword of the Spirit more effectively It is time we stop just talking about the battle, and start fighting it. But to do that we need sort of a spiritual boot camp. This is it Format Most sessions will be lecture discussion however, occasional role playing will be utilized. This builds competence and confidence. Purposes of this course are as follows 1. To help each individual to be more effective in setting up and teaching Bible studies. To equip the student with some methods of teaching the Bible that have proven effective as well as with P. W. tools to make finding and using key scriptures easier. To explain the congregations Personal Evangelism Program so each member of the congregation will be more understanding and supportive of its aims and goals. To give the student confidence in teaching so they personally can become a more effective soul winnerTABLE OF CONTENTSHow Do I Feel About Personal Evangelism 1. The Greatest Need 3.
