Why Does The Gospel Fail?

2 Corinthians  4:1  
"Therefore seeing we have this ministry, as we 
have received mercy, we faint not;"

    As servant's of Christ we must never forget that we once needed and obtained mercy. This will sustain us in many a time when heart and flesh fail.  Our weapon is the truth, Our conscience is our guide and intellectual force. We have unrivaled supremacy in the realm of conscience.  Our conscience awakens and responds to the truth, which it recognizes as the voice 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 has blinded the eyes of the heart by the glamour of worldly prosperity and success, or perhaps by the covering film of evil habit, so that the light of the dawn, stealing over the world, is unable to penetrate the darkened life.
    My friend's, as Christians we must break through that darkened film of evil, by Preaching and Sharing the True Gospel of Jesus Christ.  "For we preach not ourselves but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus sake" (2 Cor 4:5).
Amen!
