John Alexander on Missions and Predestination

John Alexander, former president of InterVarsity Christian Fellowship said in 1967,

“At the beginning of my missionary career I said that if predestination were true I could not be a missionary. Now after twenty some years of struggling with the hardness of the human heart, I say I could never be a missionary unless I believed in the doctrine of predestination.”
