ignored in much of today’s evangelistic

endeavors and is being replaced by carnal

methods of emotional inducement and/or

fleshly manipulations in an attempt to

persuade the lost sinner to either respond

to an altar call or respond to a high-

pressure presentation of the Gospel. But

Jesus said in John 6:44, “No man can come

to me, except the Father which hath sent

me draw him: and I will raise him up at the

last day.” It’s impossible for a person to

savingly trust Christ as Savior unless the

Holy Spirit (not emotional pleas and/or

carnal manipulations) first brings conviction

of sin to a person’s heart and draws a

person to Christ (not to an altar) for

forgiveness of those sins.
