There will be no misgiving, no shrinking back, no calculation of overpowering odds, no terror of possible consequences, if you frankly accept the gift which God offers you tomorrow.

Not only must the message be correctly delivered, but the messenger himself must be such as to recommend it to acceptance.

If you are apostles at all, you are apostles, not of men, nor by man. Your sufficiency is of God.

Plant thy foot firmly in the prints which His foot has made before thee.

You will bear a commission from God, for you have received a call from God.
