This paper concerns itself with the ethics of persuasion and rhetoric as they function in preaching. The author briefly considers the Judaeo-Christian, classical-rhetorical, and contemporary rhetoricians' attitude towards persuasion in communication.

Defending the use of persuasion as a method of apologetics, this article shows that persuasion takes into account both the one communicating the gospel and the one to whom it is communicated. Persuasion can be inoffensive without compromising the truth of the gospel.

These articles on presuppositional apologetics looks at the use of reason and intellect in faith, the wisdom of man and the Word of God, the presuppositions of truth, the unbeliever and knowledge of God, neutral ground and defending the faith, and persuasion in apologetics.
