Isn't this sentence just a tad POV?

"Blackstone was born in Adams, New York and accepted the Lord Jesus Christ at age 11 during evangelistic meetings at a local Methodist church."

In my opinion a better sentence would be:

"Blackstone was born in Adams, New York and became a Christian at age 11 during evangelistic meetings at a local Methodist church." --Kristjan Wager 16:18, 2 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] World already evangelized?

I copied this, "In 1904, he began teaching that the world has already been evangelized, citing Acts 2:5, 8:4, Mark 16:20 and Colossians 1:23." from Timeline of Christian missions#1900 to 1949. DFH 14:58, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
