William Booth

The greatness of the man's power is the measure of his surrender.

I consider that the chief dangers which confront the coming century will be religion without the Holy Ghost, Christianity without Christ, forgiveness without repentance, salvation without regeneration, politics without God, and heaven without hell.

The greatness of a man's power is the measure of his surrender.

Work as if everything depended upon work and pray as if everything depended upon prayer.

Not called!' did you say?'Not heard the call,' I think you should say.Put your ear down to the Bible, and hear Him bid you go and pull sinners out of the fire of sin. Put your ear down to the burdened, agonized heart of humanity, and listen to its pitiful wail for help. Go stand by the gates of hell, and hear the damned entreat you to go to their father's house and bid their brothers and sisters and servants and masters not to come there. Then look Christ in the face _ whose mercy you have professed to obey _ and tell Him whether you will join heart and soul and body and circumstances in the march to publish His mercy to the world.
