PERSUADING MEN
II Corinthians 5:11-17
Dr. Vines 7/28/85
I want to talk with you a little bit today about the subject of
persuading men. Persuading men has certainly become big business in America.
Advertising experts have taken the matter of how to persuade people to do
what you want them to do and turned it into a very exact science. Companies

on the matter of changing of the formula from the old coke to the new coke
and how this was an instance where market researchers really missed the
American people. They really didn 't understand some underlying motives that
caused people to drink Coca Cola. All of this is in the area of persuading
men. The one purpose, the one goal of it all is to persuade people to buy
their product. It was interested to me to read in the 11th verse of these
verses that the apostle Paul summarizes the whole purpose of his life in
these three words when he said we persuade men. Yet, wh ...
