If a scientist discovered the cure for cancer, we would expect the discovery to be shared with the world. Basic ethics requires that good news not be kept secret.
When the king of Syria laid siege to the city of Samaria, the food supply was cut off. Four men with leprosy, deciding it would be preferable to die at the hands of the Syrians than to starve, went to surrender to the enemy. But when they came to the camp, they found it deserted. The army had fled in the night.
Food lay everywhere. The four men stuffed themselves, and they were tempted to remain silent about the good news. But then the memory of Samaria with its famished inhabitants came back to them. "We are not doing right," they told each other (2 Kings 7:9). So they became evangelists-bearers of good news. Ultimately, evangelism comes down to this: one starving person telling another starving person where to find food.
You and I have discovered that salvation is found in Jesus Christ. It is a breakdown of basic integrity to keep that truth to ourselves. If we have found the cure for a guilty conscience, if we have found the food of life, we are obligated to share it with others. -Haddon Robinson
Evangelism is one beggar telling another beggar where to find bread.
Shades of the movie "Patton" bump for the Freeper Foxhole

Interesting insight into Patton's invective toward Ike . . . at least on the pages of his diary.
Truscott felt that Alexander would not object to such a move, and Patton, Truscott wrote, "with something of the air of the cat that had swallowed the canary, agreed . . . ."
Interesting, in the movie "Patton" this was portrayed as Truscott being against such a move or at least needing a rest.
Patton didn't realize the seriousness of what he had done, but the incidents would soon change his life and career.
And thus the lives of millions of conservative traditional Americans would change forever with the ushering in of the concept known as "politically correct." Barf-a-rama!
