We know that it is an easy thing for the Holy Spirit to lead men to see their need of a Saviour.

Missions
Paul’s greatest weapon – EM Bounds
Paul was a leader by appointment and by universal recognition and acceptance. He had many mighty forces in this ministry. His conversion, so conspicuous and radical was a great force, a perfect magazine of aggressive and defensive warfare. His call to the apostleship was clear, luminous and convincing. But these forces were not the divinest energies which brought forth the largest results to his ministry. Paul’s course was more distinctly shaped and his career rendered more powerfully successful by prayer than by any other force.

Loyalty to Jesus – Oswald Chambers
Beware of anything that competes with your loyalty to Jesus Christ. The greatest competitor of true devotion to Jesus is the service we do for Him.
– Oswald Chambers –
The Command to be Obeyed – Hudson Taylor
The Great Commission is not an option to be considered; it is a command to be obeyed.
– Hudson Taylor –
The primary purpose of every true church and Christian – Derek Prince
The supreme purpose of every true Christian Church, the chief duty of every Christian minister, the main responsibility of every Christian layman, is to present to all who may be reached, in the clearest and most forceful way, the basic facts of the gospel of Christ and to urge all who hear to make the definite personal response to these facts which God requires. To this, the supreme task, every other duty and activity of the Church, must be secondary and subsidiary.

We can’t entertain people into the kingdom.

We are always at work – Charles Spurgeon
If you are idle in Christ’s work, you are active in the devil’s work.
– Charles Spurgeon –
How to present Christ to an unbeliever – Paul Washer
We should never present Christ to the unbeliever as the cherry on top of an already wonderful life. The unbeliever must see that he has no life, and that all his personal achievements prior to Christ are monuments to his own vanity: made of sand and quickly passing.
– Paul Washer –
Shake Before Using – Vance Havner
Sometimes your medicine bottle has on it, “Shake well before using.” That is what God has to do with some of His people. He has to shake them well before they are ever usable.
