prayer hypocrisy time-flies
Prayer is good; but when used as a substitute for obedience, it is nothing but a blatant hypocrisy... Don't hedge! Time flies! ... Enlist!
jesus long heaven
Let us not glide through this world and then slip quietly into heaven, without having blown the trumpet loud and long for our Redeemer, Jesus Christ. Let us see to it that the devil will hold a thanksgiving service in hell, when he gets the news of our departure from the field of battle.
christian jesus prayer
If Jesus Christ be God and died for me, then no sacrifice can be too great for me to make for Him.
home light shining
The light that shines farthest shines brightest nearest home.
home pride men
Send us people with initiative, who can carry themselves and others too; such as need to be carried hamper the work and weaken those who should be spending their strength on the heathen. Weaklings should be nursed at home! If any have jealousy, prides, or talebearing traits lurking about them, do not send them, nor any who are prone to criticize. Send only Pauls and Timothys; men who are full of zeal, holiness and power. All others are hindrances. If you send us ten such men the work will be done.
past done lasts
Only one life, ’twill soon be past, Only what’s done for Christ will last.
missionary want impossible
Christ wants not nibblers of the possible, but grabbers of the impossible.
christian church tape
How little chance the Holy Ghost has nowadays. The churches and missionary societies have so bound Him in red tape that they practically ask Him to sit in a corner while they do the work themselves.
people missionary christianity
Had I cared for the comments of people, I should never have been a missionary.
lying blood lame
Cease your insults to God, quit consulting flesh and blood. Stop your lame, lying, and cowardly excuses. Enlist!
jesus giving joy
I cannot tell you what joy it gave me to bring the first soul to the Lord Jesus Christ. I have tasted almost all the pleasures that this world can give. I do not suppose there is one that I have not experienced, but I can tell you that those pleasures were as nothing compared to the joy that the saving of that one soul gave me.
jesus wall sea
Christ wants not nibblers of the possible, but grabbers of the impossible, by faith in the omnipotence, fidelity, and wisdom of the Almighty Saviour Who gave the command. Is there a wall in our path? By our God we will leap over it! Are there lions and scorpions in our way? We will trample them under our feet! Does a mountain bar our progress? Saying, 'Be thou cast into the sea,' we will march on. Soldiers of Jesus! Never surrender!
real men soldier
It takes a real man to make a true confession-a Chocolate Soldier will excuse or cloak his sin.
doors years missionary
For five years we never went outside our doors without a volley of curses from our neighbours.
