K. Scott Oliphint Quote

Scripture is clear that without holiness no one will see the Lord (Heb. 12:14). In wanting to be relevant to those who are not in Christ, we may be displaying more of a life in Adam than we might think. This bodes ill for the art of persuasion in covenantal apologetics. If Christianity makes little difference in the way we walk and talk on a day-to-day basis, we should not think that there will be any obvious reason for others to want to consider a life in Christ.23
