    My Mom posted this on her blog and after I read it I was astounded at the insight. This was written by a guy who lived a long time before us but he seems to put his finger on some things we are still dealing with today. 

    “Christ’s call is to feed the hungry, not the full; to save the lost, not the stiff-necked; not to call the scoffers, but sinners to repentance; not to build and furnish comfortable chapels, churches and cathedrals at home in which to rock Christian professors o sleep by means of clever essays, stereotyped prayers and artistic musical performances, but to raise living churches of souls among the destitute, to capture men form the devil’s clutches and snatch them from the very jaws of hell, to enlist and train them for Jesus, and make them into an Almighty Army of God.  But this can only be accomplished by a red-hot, unconventional, unfettered Holy Ghost religion where neither Church not State, neither man nor traditions are worshipped or preached, but only Christ and Him crucified. Not to confess Christ by fancy collars, clothes. silver croziers or gold watch-chain crosses, church steeples or richly embroidered altar-cloths, but by reckless sacrifice and heroism in the foremost trenches.”  C.T. Studd

     

    Enjoy! GS
