J. I. Packer's Classic Resource on Evangelism
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 new edition to the popular IVP Classics how both of these attitudes are false. In Evangelism and the Sovereignty of God, readers will find:
- A careful review of the biblical evidence,
- Packer's explicationof how a right understanding of God's sovereignty is not so much a barrier to evangelism as an incentive and powerful support for it, and
- Powerful illustrations and applications that bring biblical wisdom into everyday life.
Withover 100,000 copies in print, Evangelism and the Sovereignty of God is truly a classic that should be read by every Christian.
"I've often recommended this book to faithful Christians who are confused about how they are to think about prayer, missions, giving—any area in which our efforts could be wrongly pitted against God's own necessary action. Packer introduces us to clear truths, handles Scripture with exemplary care, and supplies us with just the right amount of illustrations and application."From the foreword by Mark Dever, Senior Pastor, Capitol Hill Baptist Church, Washington, D.C.
