WILLIAM BOOTH QUOTES – Fsmstatistics.fm

Here are 24 quotes by William Booth, the founder of The Salvation Army:

“While women weep, as they do now, I’ll fight. While children go hungry, as they do now, I’ll fight. While men go to prison, in and out, in and out, as they do now, I’ll fight. While there is a drunkard left, while there is a poor lost girl upon the streets, while there remains one dark soul without the light of God, I’ll fight.”

“The greatness of the man’s power is the measure of his surrender.”

“The chief danger that confronts the coming century will be religion without the Holy Ghost, Christianity without Christ, forgiveness without repentance, salvation without regeneration, politics without God, and Heaven without Hell.”

“God sends no one away empty except those who are full of themselves.”

“Faith and works are bound up in the same bundle. He that obeys God trusts God; and he that trusts God obeys God. He that is without faith is without works; and he that is without works is without faith.”

“Not called!” did you say? “Not heard the call,” I think you should say. Put your ear down to the Bible, and hear Him bid you go and pull sinners out of the fire of sin. Put your ear to the burdened, agonized heart of humanity, and listen to its pitiful wail for help.”

“If we are to better the future we must disturb the present.”

“The moral influence of man is the only reliable check upon government. We must look to the moral character of leaders if we would have leaders who are free from corruption.”

“The chief secret of success lies in never attempting to do more than can be done in this present moment.” “There are people in the world who would love to return evil for good and are constantly seeking to repay you with their hatred and malice. But you cannot afford to live like that.”

“God loves with a great love the man whose heart is bursting with a passion for the impossible.”

“If we are to be good soldiers of Jesus Christ, it behooves us to be altogether for the war.”

“I must assert in the most unqualified way that it is primarily and mainly business, and not sin, which worries the devil nowadays.” DRACULA UNTOLD QUOTES

“Leave no stone unturned. Put your whole soul into it. Stamp it with your own personality. Be active, be energetic, be enthusiastic and faithful, and you will accomplish your object. Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.”

“The worst bad thing I know is to do very well what you ought not to do at all.”

“You must open a thousand doors before you find one that leads to success.”

“The greatness of a man’s power is the measure of his surrender.”

“Never mind whether the other fellow is showing sin and meanness; if I am going to wait till he gets all right before I begin to show brotherly love, I may have to wait a long time.”

“It is not enough to do good; one must do it the right way in order to do it the greatest good.”

“The second element in salvation is that you can only be saved by personal revelation of the reality of Christ.”

“Men and women are going away to rapid destruction, and yet apparently nobody cares. People call themselves by the name of Christ, and yet the spirit of Christ seems entirely absent from ’em.”

“The spirit of Christ is the spirit of his self-sacrificing love. The nearer we come to him, the more of that spirit we shall possess, and the more deeply he can use us to make known to men and women the love and grace and power of God.”

“It is a mistake to suppose that God is a millionaire looking for places to invest His money so that He can get rich.”
