“El punto que señalamos acerca de Finney se refiere simplemente a que los evangelistas de avivamiento hicieron de la salvación el propósito prioritario de Dios. La salvación se convirtió en algo que cobró vida propia, a menudo aislada de una experiencia cristiana holística, y por lo tanto se llevaron a cabo muchas innovaciones para facilitar la experiencia de conversión, pero no una experiencia cristiana completa. El propósito eterno de Dios no estaba para nada dentro de la perspectiva. En lo que tiene que ver con el pragmatismo moderno, los cristianos deberían determinar por ellos mismos si alguna práctica en particular es del Espíritu Santo o si se trata de una mera ingenuidad humana en operación.”
