SPIRITUAL NON-HUNGER
All too often believers are exhorted and even pressured to grow before there is an acute awareness of need, before there is true spiritual hunger. And, sad to say, in most instances when there is real heart-hunger, very little spiritual food is offered. One of the main reasons for so much evangelistic effort and personal work coming to little or nothing is that truths are forced upon the “victim” to be saved before he is aware that he is lost. The work will soon come to naught unless an overpowering conviction of sin causes the lost to reach out with the grip of personal faith, and find their need fully met in the Savior. From Principles of Spiritual Growth, by Miles J. Stanford, published by Back to The Bible Publication, 1972, Lincoln, Nebraska, p. 30
