Such a faith is thought to be dangerous to spiritual health because it breeds a habit of complacent inertia. In particular, it is thought to paralyse evangelism by robbing one both of the motive to evangelize and of the message to evangelize with. The supposition seems to be that you cannot evangelize effectively unless you are prepared to pretend while you are doing it, that the doctrine of divine sovereignty is not true. I shall try to make it evident that this is nonsense. I shall try to show further that, so far from inhibiting evangelism, faith in the sovereignty of God's government and grace is the only thing that can sustain it, for it is the only thing that can give us the resilience that we need if we are to evangelize boldly and persistently, and not be daunted by temporary setbacks. So far from being weakened by this faith, therefore, evangelism will inevitably be weak and lack staying power without it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6841</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Action based on reason, action therefore which is only to be understood by reason, knows only one end, the greatest ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51996]]></link><description><![CDATA[Action based on reason, action therefore which is only to be understood by reason, knows only one end, the greatest pleasure of the acting individual.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51996</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The impatient may not always be wrong on issues, but they are almost always wrong in their attitudes. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20638]]></link><description><![CDATA[The impatient may not always be wrong on issues, but they are almost always wrong in their attitudes.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20638</guid></item></channel></rss>
