Where is the bible verse that talks about redeeming our sins if we evangelize and help the holy spirit convert people to the church.
 
There is no verse that says that. The closest I can think of is James 5:20, “Whoever turns a sinner from the error of their way will save them from death and cover over a multitude of sins.”

James 5:20 is a verse that Calvinists find particularly upsetting, since it seems to contradict their assertion that nothing we do through own efforts can merit God’s blessing. But there is a verse in Paul that is in full agreement with James on this point:

*Attend to yourself and to your teaching; persevere in both tasks, for by doing so you will save both yourself and those who listen to you. *(1 Tim. 4:16)
