Too long the church has been programmed to accept the inevitabilities of meager results in the efforts toward Muslim evangelization. The reasons for this failure in mission must now be probed and resolved as the world today is coming alive to the presence of the Muslim religious community. The author asks the missions world to forsake former presuppositions and to become conscious of God speaking in a new and fresh manner—not in regard to His changeless Word—but in areas of extra-biblical methodology.
