Pastor Mike continues his theological critique against the practice of altar calls. He expands on his arguments by explaining that altar calls frequently grant individuals false assurance of salvation, mislead believers into relying on a church building "saving zone" instead of personally evangelizing others, and minimize the biblical significance of baptism as the true public profession of faith. Abendroth further contends that altar calls inappropriately manipulate the pinnacle of the worship service and risk confusing the preacher or an inquiry helper with the sole mediator, Jesus Christ. Ultimately, he maintains that the sovereign preaching of the Word carries the true power to save, calling individuals to repent and believe exactly where they are.
