Oswald Chambers

Missionary enterprise, to be Christian, must be based on the passion of obedience, not on the pathos of pity...Jesus Christ pays no attention whatever to our sentiment.  In the New Testament the emphasis is not on the needs of men, but on the command of Christ, "Go ye".

J. Hudson Taylor

If I had 1,000 lives

I'd give them all for China

Paul

Even though I am a free man with no master, I have become a slave to all people to bring many to Christ.  

When I was with the Jews, I lived like a Jew to bring the Jews to Christ. 

When I was with those who follow the Jewish law, I too lived under that law. Even though I am not subject to the law, I did this so I could bring to Christ those who are under the law.  

When I am with the Gentiles who do not follow the Jewish law, I too live apart from that law so I can bring them to Christ. But I do not ignore the law of God; I obey the law of Christ.

When I am with those who are weak, I share their weakness, for I want to bring the weak to Christ. 

Yes, I try to find common ground with everyone, doing everything I can to save some. I do everything to spread the Good News and share in its blessings.

Billy Graham

The most eloquent prayer is the prayer through hands that heal and bless. The highest form of worship is the worship of unselfish Christian service. The greatest form of praise is the sound of consecrated feet seeking out the lost and helpless.

D.L. Moody

It can be done; it ought to be done; it must be done.

George Verwer

God's unity is in the midst of great diversity.

Martin Luther

How soon 

not now 

becomes

never.

John Piper

There will be no big world vision

without a big God.

Mary Slessor

[kneeling] 

Lord, the task is impossible for me but not for Thee.

Lead the way and I will follow.

[rising]

Why should I fear?

I am on a royal mission.

I am in the service of the King of kings.

James

Isn't it obvious that God-talk without God-acts is outrageous nonsense? 

James 2:17 The Message

Steve Moore

Uploading is the most revolutionary form of collaboration in the world...Far too many mission organizations are operating with a download paradigm in an upload world.  

While You Were Micro-Sleeping

J. Hudson Taylor

Since the days of Pentecost,has the whole church ever put aside every other work and waited upon Him for ten days,that the Spirit's power might be manifested? We give too much attention to method and machinery and resources, and too little to the source of power.

Keith Green

If you don't go,

you need a specific calling from God

to stay home. 

Has God definitely told you not to "go" somewhere

outside your country to preach the Gospel?

If He hasn't, then you'd better start praying WHERE to go,

instead of IF you should go - for again, you're already called!

George Verwer

Unanswered prayer 

is one of the great altars upon which 

God makes true men and women. 

Loren Cunningham

If everyone exercises their rights to the exclusion of God's plans for us, a tragedy of cataclysmic proportions will occur.  Millions of people will live their lives in guilt and despair and will die to face judgment for their sins eternally in hell.  

Amy Carmichael

I wish thy way.

And when in me myself should rise,

and long for something otherwise,

Then Lord, take sword and spear

And slay.

Kenneth L. Pike

The price that one pays for

refusing to act on the

truth as one sees it,

is to be led to believe untruth

to avoid guilt.

Jesus

You will receive power 

when the Holy Spirit comes upon you. 

And you will be my witnesses,

telling people about me everywhere—

in Jerusalem, throughout Judea, in Samaria, 

and to the ends of the earth.

John Wesley

Do all the good you can,

in all the ways you can,

to all the souls you can,

in every place you can,

at all the times you can,

with all the zeal you can,

as long as ever you can.

David Livingstone

Sympathy is no substitute for action.

George Verwer

It is because people are not growing

that they are not going

to the ends of the earth. 

Before God can thrust you out,

He wants to build you up.

Drops from a Leaking Tap

Elisabeth Elliot

Do you know what most
"struggling" is? 

Delayed obedience.

Oswald J. Smith

No one has the right to hear the gospel twice, while there remains someone who has not heard it once.

Ralph Winter

Evangelism in word, 

if supported by 

'demonstration' in deed, 

is actually

 empowered evangelism.

Jesus

Peace be with you. 

As the Father has sent me, so

I am sending you.

John 20:21

George Barna

The visionary who is serving God ceases to live for personal ambition, but rather for God's ambitions. 

Amy Carmichael

Can we follow the Savior far,

who have no wound or scar?

Adoniram Judson

[to Judson] “Do you think the prospects bright 

for the speedy conversion of the heathen?”

[Judson] “As bright as the promises of God.”  

  

A History of Christianity in Asia by Samuel Moffett

Brother Andrew

You can still go to any place in the Muslim world and preach Christ.
Any place.
 I want to challenge the whole world with that statement.

Christianity Today June 2007

William Cameron Townsend

The greatest missionary is the Bible in the mother tongue.

It needs no furlough and is never considered a foreigner.

Keith Green

This generation of Christians

is responsible for

this generation of souls
on the earth.

Jesus

This is what is written: The Christ will suffer and rise from the dead on the third day, and repentance and forgiveness of sins will be preached in his name to all nations, beginning at Jerusalem. You are witnesses of these things.

Luke 24:46-48
