At Kansas City, Kansas, before the saloons were closed, they were getting ready to build an addition to the jail. Now the doors swing idly on the hinges and there is nobody to lock in the jails.
There are individuals who have never done anything for Jesus Christ, and I have no doubt there are preachers as well, who have never done anything for the God Almighty.
After all is said that can be said upon the liquor traffic, its influence is degrading upon the individual, the family, politics and business, and upon everything that you touch in this old world.
God Almighty never intended that the devil should triumph over the Church. He never intended that the saloons should walk rough-shod over Christianity.
A revival does two things. First, it returns the Church from her backsliding and second, it causes the conversion of men and women; and it always includes the conviction of sin on the part of the Church. What a spell the devil seems to cast over the Church today!
When is a revival needed? When carelessness and unconcern keep the people asleep.
Conversion is a complete surrender to Jesus. It's a willingness to do what he wants you to do.
Hell is the highest reward that the devil can offer you for being a servant of his.
There is no sport as competitive as business. It's 24 by 7 by 365 by forever.
If there was a template for success in sports, everyone would follow it. You do the best you can and trust the people you trust.
