We are commanded to compel them to come in.

Church is the goal of evangelism, not the place for it.

Tell that to me and millions of others who were yanked off the street and compelled to come to church and who met Christ there.

Wherever two or more are gathered... Where better to meet the Lord? Where better to hear his voice? He's there already.

It is one goal of evangelism.

1Co 14 demonstrates that it can also be a place of evangelism....where the unbeliever enters and ends of glorifying the Lord.

I'd think that the primary goal of evangelism is salvation of the lost.
