The truth is that two distinct conceptions and types of evangelism have been developed in Protestant Christendom during the course of its history. We may call them the “Puritan” type and the “modern” type. Today we are so accustomed to evangelism of the modern type that we scarcely recognize the other is evangelism at all. In order that we may fully grasp the character of the Puritan type of evangelism, I shall here set it in contrast with the modern type, which has so largely superseded it at the present time. This is another " must read", whether you are one who is actively involved in what Packer describes as 'modern evangelism' or one who has been vexed by it and is looking for an apologetic against it. The difference between the two is truly "dark vs. light" and it is crucial that one know the difference.
