Evangelism naturally brings one into apologetics. This indicates that apologetics is no mere matter of "intellectual jousting"; it is a serious matter of life and death - eternal life and death. The apologist who fails to take account of the evangelistic nature of his argumentation is both cruel and proud. That ia a " can anyone give me an Amen" statement

Eventually, I'll get time to actually read this chapter of the Institutes.
Lets see, I have:
my normal Bible study twice daily....
Piper's "Future Grace" (page 80 something)....
a promised answer to SoothingDave and computerjunkie (I'm working on it, I swear)....
and a stack of papers my pastor mailed to me over the weekend as an exercise on the nature of the Atonement (as part of my new duties).
And that's just the reading portion. I have also traded books with one of my ushers and he wants to debate/discuss "The Bondage of the Will" (sure, let me finish this clone first and I'll be happy to accommodate).
But, first, there is dinner, Boy Scouts, and various misc stuff to do. Gosh, I hope the dog doesn't want a lot of attention tonight. hehehe!
