We're all evangelists. For some it's bytes (bits) of frames and packets, some deeper into electronic impulses. But who can say there are inherent sampling protocols, besides that which flows from frequentist models on one hand or Bayesian interpretation on other starts. We test and report. The two polar ends, bug in temple, serve a healthy cue.
Very often you're tempted and you resist giving in and you give in. God will still love, forgive and enrich your life but it's probable we lose on even greater graces. It's like opening the floodgates upon returning to Faith. Whenever you get tempted and give in without much resistance, it takes longer to resist; God sprinkling out His mercy. The difference is swallowing the gummy snack whole, not tasting!
