It may surprise some readers that the English word evangelism does not occur once in the Authorized Version. And even its related term evangelist occurs but three times (Acts 21:8; Ephesians 4:11; 2 Timothy 4:5). But these few passages do not convey a fraction of the large place given in the Word of God to what has been named “evangelism.” To discover this, one must examine the Greek term.

Proponents of Darwinism often argue that Christians should have no qualms about accepting evolution. Sometimes they have cited Darwin’s supposed religious character and the fact that he studied for the ministry.

John Chandler, a columnist for Baptist News Global and leader of the Spence Network, recently wrote that churches aiming to thrive in today’s post-Christian culture are “more and more going to have a cozier relationship with the charismatic stream of Christianity” (Baptist News Global, “Looking for Clues to Thriving Faith Communities in a Post-Christendom Church,” 1-12-18).

April 17, 2018, marked the 90th anniversary of the Fundamental Evangelistic Association. As we look back over 90 years of service for Jesus Christ, we can truly shout forth the words of the psalmist from the depths of our hearts: “Praise ye the Lord. O give thanks unto the Lord; for He is good: for His mercy endureth for ever” (Psa. 106:1). Jesus Christ, who is the same yesterday, and today, and forever, has not only blessed the Fundamental Evangelistic Association throughout its 90-year history, but has also abundantly provided above all that we could ever ask or think.

Another Gospel

By Rev. C. F. Sheldon

In the Galatian letter, the apostle Paul uses strong language with reference to those who preach a perverted gospel. Paul's name for the gospel committed to him is: "The gospel of the grace of God." It is important that we know the truth, in so far as it is possible, of this great fact; that grace and truth came by Jesus Christ. This gospel of grace is our gospel. It is all that we have to preach; and in such measure as we fail to understand the grace of God, we shall fail to be effective preachers.
