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://maxioms.com/maxiom/6841</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The final test of a leader is that he leaves behind him in other men the conviction and will to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24412]]></link><description><![CDATA[The final test of a leader is that he leaves behind him in other men the conviction and will to carry on.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24412</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We have resumed natural gas supply from the field on Wednesday at 4:15 p.m. to the national grid. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30572]]></link><description><![CDATA[We have resumed natural gas supply from the field on Wednesday at 4:15 p.m. to the national grid.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30572</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you want to truly understand something, try to change it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5538]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you want to truly understand something, try to change it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5538</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Like all of us in this storm between birth and death, I can wreak no great changes on the world, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4258]]></link><description><![CDATA[Like all of us in this storm between birth and death, I can wreak no great changes on the world, only small changes for the better, I hope, in the lives of those I love.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4258</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Great eagerness in the pursuit of wealth, pleasure, or honor, cannot exist without sin. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21902]]></link><description><![CDATA[Great eagerness in the pursuit of wealth, pleasure, or honor, cannot exist without sin.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21902</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When a symbol unmoors itself from what it symbolizes, it loses meaning.
