We must reckon with the activity of Satan when we encounter the questioning which arises from unbelief - ‘the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, to keep them from seeing the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ ’ (2 Corinthians 4;4). How is the problem of unbelief to be overcome? Unbelief gives way to faith , only when God is at work in the human heart: ‘it is the God who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” who has shone in our hearts to give the light of the glory of God in the face of Christ ’ (2 Corinthians 4:6). The emergence of faith in the human heart is the work of ‘the Lord, who made heaven and earth’ (Psalm 121:2). If we are to combat unbelief effectively, our evangelism must be God -centred.
