The Colporteur Evangelist
Young Men Who Volunteer
Christ calls for young men who will volunteer to carry the truth to
the world. Men of spiritual stamina are wanted, men who are able to
find work close at hand, because they are looking for it. The church
needs new men to give energy to the ranks, men for the times, able to
cope with its errors, men who will inspire with fresh zeal the flagging
efforts of the few laborers, men whose hearts are warm with Christian
love, and whose hands are eager to go about their Master’s work.
Continual Reliance upon God
When there is a continual reliance upon God, a continual practice
of self-denial, the workers will not sink into discouragement. They
will not worry. They will remember that in every place there are souls
of whom the Lord has need, and whom the devil is seeking, that he
may bind them fast in the slavery of sin of disregard for the law of
God.—
