So that one might justly assert that the preaching of the evangelism had made the people worse in place of better." Another Protestant preacher, John Borkmann, asserts, 1560: "As for sin, it overflows all places and all stations. It is growing stronger in all offices, in all trades, in all employments, in every station of life what shall I say more? in every individual" and so on.
Men of God, in rapid succession, rose in all the Churches. A pious laity began to take the lead in advancing the cause of evangelism.
A point of focus for all church membership courses should be the question: When you become a member of the church, how are you going to exercise your ministry in the world? This orientation could be the source of a new evangelism that would make its witness heard in the depth and detail of human life. The Reunion of the Church
He had always supposed that what the leaflets called "personal evangelism" had to be done in a spirit of solemnity. But how was he to acquire the proper frame of mind? And certainly there was nothing solemn about Marty just now. Yet the thing had gone too far; it was too late to retreat. He tried to think how Mr. Drury would do it, but saw only that if it was Mr.

For we set out deliberately to give them schooling first, with evangelism as an accompaniment. The stress was on education, and we decided at the outset on a certain sort of education."
This is not the place for such evangelism, for that is not the gospel which this book is intended to spread. And whether the story is true or not, it is at least well found. England, then, had had for years a monopoly of the sale of tin-tacks to the Japanese, when a trader in Japan became impressed with the fact that the traffic was badly handled.

If that first apostolate was able to remove mountains by faith, such an apostolate as Christ could now summon might change the face of the earth." The time is ripe for such an apostolate.
