“Perhaps you don’t read contemporary Christian or attend a church or choose to be in a place where Evangelicals gather? I seldom hear alcoholics refer to themselves as alcoholics unless they are in a place where alcoholics gather.”
I do. In fact, I hang around with Christians who actually go out to street preach. Never heard them refer to themselves as Evangelicals, even as they were evangelizing. I only hear it on TV in reference to politics. Saying ‘Evangelical Christian” should be kind of redundant when you think about it.
