Why Then, Does The Gospel Fail?

                                        2 Corinthians 4:3
                              "But if our gospel be hid, it is
                                   hid to them that are lost."


        As servant's of Christ we must never forget that we once needed and obtained mercy.  This will sustain us in many an hour when heart and flesh fail.  For our weapon is the truth, and our appeal is to conscience.  Others may strive for victory in brilliant imagination, strong enthusiasm, and intellectual force, but we have no rival, nor equal supremacy in the realm of conscience.  We have the supreme power and authority of God.
        Why, then, does the gospel fail?  Not through any defect in itself, nor because of some arbitrary decree on the part of God, but because the god of this world (Satan) has blinded the eyes of the heart by the glamor of worldly prosperity and success, or perhaps by the covering film or scale of evil habit's, so that the light of the dawn, stealing over the world, is unable to penetrate the darkened life.

       Amen!!
