I heard that BJU students and grad students are no longer allowed to do street evangelism. My friend said it's because they do not wish to be associated with KJVO baptists who are also down there ( I met some). Does anyone know when this policy changed and why?
Not everyone down there in Greenville is KJVO as I was formerly a member of a The Way of the Master evangelist church. Besides them lots of Reformed and Calvinists also are down there.
Is this kind of extreme? I mean the lost need the gospel and how can one obey Mark 16:15 without being allowed to preach the word? Not necessarily open air but to hand out tracts and talk with people at least.
Well I will be back visiting Greenville soon. Perhaps all the years after I left BJU being down in DT Greenville open air preaching and such I wonder if I may have influenced this policy change. I mean I am a former BJU student turned into a Way of the Master Calvinist evangelist!

Correction. My friend says BJU does allow street evangelism but has banned open air preaching.

I wish I could edit my OP or at least the title to say that BJU does not allow open air preaching.

In the years I was there, late 70's-early 80's there was a lot of that done. I don't recall a single good response. There were a lot of people that looked at us like idiots. There were a lot of Christians that thought we were embarrassing casting our pearls before swine. Way more damage than good. We had more success giving out tracts and striking up conversations on the street. Does your hero, Ray Comfort do street preaching or just street evangelism?
