Evangelism

For "everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved."
How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in him of whom they have never heard? And how are they to hear without someone preaching?
And how are they to preach unless they are sent? As it is written, "How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the good news!"
(Rom 10:13)

Evangelism and the Sovereignty of God

If God is in control of everything, can Christians sit back and not bother to evangelize? Or does active evangelism imply that God is not really sovereign at all?
J.I. Packer shows in this classic study how both of these attitudes are false. In a careful review of the biblical evidence, he shows how a right understanding of God's sovereignty is not so much a barrier to evangelism as an incentive and powerful support for it.

What then is my reward? That in my preaching I may present the gospel free of charge, so as not to make full use of my right in the gospel.
For though I am free from all, I have made myself a servant to all, that I might win more of them.

Watter loon het ek dan? Dat as ek die evangelie verkondig, ek die evangelie van Christus kosteloos bring, om nie van my reg in die evangelie ten volle
gebruik te maak nie. Want alhoewel ek van almal vry was, het ek my aan almal diensbaar gemaak om soveel van hulle as moontlik te win.
(1 Cor 9:18-19)
