A friend recently attended a major evangelistic event for students. There were over 800 people present.
When I asked him how it went, he replied that it proved to be a great opportunity, but then added of the speaker: 'A great communicator, but no gospel He simply did not preach the cross'.
Warren Wiersbe has said: 'We have heard well-outlined sermons, based on careful exegesis, that did not proclaim the gospel or even mention the name of Jesus! And they were preached, not in liberal churches, but in evangelical churches.'
