"The Moravians recognized themselves in debt to the world as the trustees of the gospel. They were taught to embrace a lifestyle of self-denial, sacrifice and prompt obedience. They followed the call of the Lamb to go anywhere and with an emphasis upon the worst and hardest places as having the first claim. No soldiers of the cross have ever been bolder as pioneers, more patient or persistent in difficulties, more heroic in suffering, or more entirely devoted to Christ and the souls of men than the Moravian Brother-hood."
-David Smithers

"Several years ago...An Uncle of mine, who was very sound, slipped in some good books into a suitcase one day...and I remember coming across a book by Ernie Reisinger called "Today's Evangelism" and I began to read it... I got half way through that book and this is no exaggeration... and I'm not speaking evangelistically... This is true. I fell out of that chair with such the fear of God upon my life, and I pressed my face into those old boards of that room in the city of Lima (third floor of an old building we were using for a church)... I pressed my face as far into those boards as they could get in fear as I could get... and cried out to God, "God, If you promise not to kill me for the way I've preached your gospel, I promise from here on out I'll never preach it that way again."
-Paul Washer (quoted from "I am under obligation")

| | Re: | | Passing along the road the other day, we thought we had found a very beautiful knife. On picking it up we found it to be only a handle without a blade. So do we hear very beautiful sermonswell written and well readbut they are without a blade. They cut out no cancers of sin and carve out no models of piety. Sermons must have blades!

| | Re: Great Quotes 7 | | I'm afraid from the presence of God. You know, we do little things, we criticize, we gossip and stuff.
I was memorizing the first twelve chapters of Acts few years ago, and I phoned my wife five o clock one morning, I was speaking at a bible institute, she thought that there was something wrong, and she said: "What's going on? " I said: "My darling I'm memorizing Acts Chapter 5, Ananias and Sapphira" and she said: "What about that", I said: "Yes, they kept back part of the price, and you remember what happened. God struck them and they were dead." She said: "What do you think" and I said: "Jannes(?) if we were living in Acts chapter 5 today, there will be very few christians who will be alive" I'm afraid of the presence of God.
