The church needs more Studds

In a recent article I have been reading, there is a quote by a daring missionary named C.T. Studd.

He said " Some want to live within the sound of church of chapel bell: I want to run a rescue shop within a yard of hell"

That kinda says where we are. We need to be aggressive in our approach to winning souls.

The attempt to co-exist with other religions will water down the fervency of our mandate from God.

While Islam is aggressive with their evangelization of the world, we have slowed down far too much. We just assume this is a Christian nation and we are content to start churches and hope that others will leave where they are not "being fed" and come to us......

God give us 'more Studds" in the church.
