Recently a well know atheist said: “How much do you have to hate someone to not proselytize?” This is a surprising statement not only because it was said by an atheist, but also because in our day (increasingly so) evangelism or proselytization is seen as out of line, immoral, even a violation of people’s rights. But, is it possible that we might understand it as compassion? In Acts 16 three people experience it as such.
