“I have to hear the gospel preached before I can believe it, but I don’t have to hear the gospel preached before the Spirit disposes my heart to listen to that preacher” (Against the Church, p. 157).

Theology That Bites Back
And does not nature preach the gospel?
I have a question that has nothing to do with this quote. In one of your books on marriage you touched on something very briefly. You mentioned that a man that did not take care of his wife was shooting himself in the foot career wise. I was wondering if you would be able to expand on this? I work at a place where there is no such thing as overwork and I like it and would never go home if I didn’t have to. I don’t really know any other place or way to ask this question. Sorry.
If nature preached the gospel, then why are so many scientists non-believers? Or are they just reading it incorrectly?
Craig, sounds like you’re expecting all who hear preaching to receive it in faith, if they understood it correctly.
