If the WORD OF GOD cannot inspire you,maybe men moved by God can: “Not called!” did you say? “Not heard the call,” I thinkyou should say. Put your ear down to the Bible, and hear Him bid you go andpull sinners out of the fire of sin. Put your ear down to the burdened,agonized heart of humanity, and listen to its pitiful wail for help. Go standby the gates of 2 hell, and hear the damned entreat you to go to their father'shouse and bid their brothers and sisters and servants and masters not comethere. Then look Christ in the face -- whose mercy you have professed to obey-- and tell Him whether you will join heart and soul and body and circumstancesin the march to publish His mercy to the world.” William Booth  Founder of theSalvation Army

You have offended him infinitely more than ever a stubborn rebel did hisprince; and yet it is nothing but his hand that holds you from falling into thefire every moment.” Jonathan Edwards

And there is no otherreason to be given, why you have not dropped into hell since you arose in themorning, but that God's hand has held you up. There is no other reason to begiven why you have not gone to hell, since you have sat here in the house ofGod, provoking his pure eyes by your sinful wicked manner of attending hissolemn worship. Yea, there is nothing else that is to be given as a reason whyyou do not this very moment drop down into hell. O sinner! Consider the fearfuldanger you are in!” Jonathan Edwards

You will sometimes think of me then, as you shallsee the smoke of my woe rising up darkly athwart the glorious heavens.
