Evangelism in Light of God's Sovereignty

God's sovereignty is not meant to be a discouragement to evangelism but rather a mighty encouragement! His sovereign control, grace, and plan are the bedrock foundation for our evangelism. As R.C. Sproul reminds us, God is sovereign not only over the ends but over the means to arrive at the ends. And one of those precious means is our witnessing, our evangelism, our gospel-telling among our lost family, friends, neighbors, and co-workers. Sproul mentions preaching along these lines as well. We can think of prayer in this same vein. And God's sovereignty should fill us with confidence as we practice these ways of living as Christians!

And by the way, J.I. Packer's book on this (pictured above) is great!
