The new idea in religion says the world is getting better and better.
That’s not true. The world is getting worse and worse.
Don’t storm and fuss at God about the plans of redemption when you don’t
know beans about a housefly.
The greatest scientists, the greatest painters, the greatest inventors,
the greatest astronomers, have all been Christians.
If you are a member of a Masonic lodge, give me your hand or take off that
badge. Especially do I challenge you if you are a Knight Templar, with
your sword drawn in defense of the gospel I am preaching.
AT A PRAYER MEETING, MR. SUNDAY OFFERED THE FOLLOWING PRAYER, PLEADING TO
GOD TO GIVE HIM STRENGTH TO CARRY ON HIS WORK.
“Oh Jesus, we’re not making an excuse. We’re not trying to offer an excuse
for not doing things as perhaps we might have done. But our voice is
hoarse, we feel the strain of his campaign, our health is not the best,
and we pray to Thee for more strength with which to battle down the forces
of sin and hell. But Jesus, we’re willing to fight for you, no matter how
bad we feel. We’ll stick to it, Jesus as long as you will let us. But,
Jesus, don’t you think for a minute we’re trying to give some excuse.
We’re tired, but on the job, and we want to stick to it, so help us all
and give us strength for Your sake. Amen.”
