33015 | How can we overcome this enemy? |
33015 | How do we gain this mighty power? |
33015 | How long would he be governor? |
33015 | I am afraid that if we had been in John''s place, many of us would have said:"What did Christ say,--I am a burning and shining light?" |
33015 | I asked him,"How do you account for creation, for all these rocks?" |
33015 | I asked him:"Do you believe Christ said that?" |
33015 | I have been asked by a great many good men,"Why is it we do n''t have any results? |
33015 | I have had people say to me,"Mr. Moody, how can I get control of my temper?" |
33015 | I said to her after it was all over:"It turned out quite differently from what you expected, did n''t it?" |
33015 | I said,"How do you account for the formation of the world?" |
33015 | If he had lived such a false life that his children had no faith in his word, what would have been his feelings? |
33015 | If men wo n''t fight here for all this reward, what will they fight for? |
33015 | Is Henry Martyn, or Wilberforce, or John Bunyan dead? |
33015 | Is James in? |
33015 | Is John Knox dead? |
33015 | Is John in? |
33015 | Is Wesley or Whitefield dead? |
33015 | Is he living a double and dishonest life? |
33015 | Is it not wonderful? |
33015 | Is it well with your children? |
33015 | Is n''t it grand? |
33015 | Is n''t it time for us to get our friends into the Kingdom of God? |
33015 | Is n''t it worth a struggle? |
33015 | Is n''t it worth fighting for? |
33015 | Is there a prayerless father reading this? |
33015 | It does n''t take you very long to turn around, does it? |
33015 | Its title was:"Are all the children in?" |
33015 | Just then a poor old colored woman rose in the audience, and said.--"Frederick, is God dead?" |
33015 | Let me quote a few words by Dr. Chalmers:"Thousands of men breathe, move and live, pass off the stage of life, and are heard no more-- Why? |
33015 | Men say,"What has he stopped work for?" |
33015 | My dear friends, are we not living in solemn days? |
33015 | My dear friends, is n''t it humiliating? |
33015 | My dear friends, is n''t that a high calling? |
33015 | Now will you come to Christ? |
33015 | Now, are you ready to do it? |
33015 | Now, how are we to get the victory over all our enemies? |
33015 | Now, if this text was not true, do n''t you think it would have been found out by this time? |
33015 | One day the two sisters were together, and the other said:"Now what have you got at those meetings that you did n''t have in the first place?" |
33015 | One of these officers said at the table:"I believe that Carey was a shoemaker, was n''t he, before he took up the profession of a missionary?" |
33015 | Or is he immersed in business and pleasure? |
33015 | Shall I tell you what the"yoke"referred to in the text is? |
33015 | She said,"Can you help me? |
33015 | Some of his neighbors say,"Noah, what is your hurry? |
33015 | Some of his relatives might have said,"What are you going to do with the old homestead?" |
33015 | Surely that is broad enough-- is it not? |
33015 | Taking the note from his pocket he gave it to the lady, and said:"Will you read that note aloud?" |
33015 | That discussion has wrecked party after party, one society after another--"Who shall be the greatest?" |
33015 | The cry of the world to day is,"Where can rest be found?" |
33015 | The heavens will be on fire, and then what will property, honor, and position in society be worth? |
33015 | The little fellow looked up and said:"No; is this death that I feel stealing over me? |
33015 | The neighbors cry out,"What does this mean?" |
33015 | The question is, are you overcoming the world, or is the world overcoming you? |
33015 | There is nothing to be proud of-- is there? |
33015 | They will say:"You ca n''t get away from your mother, eh? |
33015 | Well, but we had no part in crucifying Christ; therefore, what is our sin? |
33015 | What Does it Mean to Come? |
33015 | What are our enemies without? |
33015 | What can I do to overcome it?" |
33015 | What do we see to- day? |
33015 | What does James say? |
33015 | What is the matter with my Christianity?" |
33015 | What is the secret of Sunday driving, of the saloons and brothels? |
33015 | What is the use of being five years about what you can do in five minutes? |
33015 | What is the use of his talking about salvation for the next life, if he has no salvation for this? |
33015 | What is your hurry? |
33015 | What then will become of your soul? |
33015 | What was the matter? |
33015 | What would you think of a farmer who went on sowing all the year round, and never thought of reaping? |
33015 | When He came into the house at Capernaum, He turned to His disciples, and said:"What was all that discussion about?" |
33015 | When a man will drive like Jehu all the week and like a snail on Sunday, is n''t there something wrong with him? |
33015 | When he was dying he called his father to his bedside and said:"Was n''t it a good thing that my sisters went to those meetings? |
33015 | When the young man heard it, he said:"Do you mean to tell me that he has been converted?" |
33015 | When you talk with them they say:"Well, when you say''the world,''what do you mean?" |
33015 | Where Can Rest be Found? |
33015 | Where is he to- day? |
33015 | Where is your son, your daughter? |
33015 | Who can soften your hard heart but Himself?" |
33015 | Who can tell the name of any of the millionaires of Daniel''s day? |
33015 | Who in all the world will say that Napoleon lives in their heart''s affections? |
33015 | Who is able to reach and help drinking men like those who have themselves been slaves to the intoxicating cup? |
33015 | Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?" |
33015 | Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?" |
33015 | Who were the mighty conquerors of that day? |
33015 | Who would have such a man around him as John Bunyan in his time? |
33015 | Whoever heard of a man going out to fish, and setting his net, and then letting it stop there, and never pulling it in? |
33015 | Why are theaters and places of amusement crowded at night? |
33015 | Why? |
33015 | Why? |
33015 | Will I die to- day?" |
33015 | Will you not go out this very day and seek to rescue these men? |
33015 | Will you not lay hold of the promise, and trust it, and follow Him now? |
33015 | Will you thus live and die, O man immortal? |
33015 | Wo n''t it be sweet, darling?" |
33015 | Wo n''t you meet me in heaven, father?" |
33015 | Wo n''t you take up your cross now? |
33015 | Wonderful, is n''t it? |
33015 | Would n''t you? |
33015 | are you getting mastery over the world and the flesh? |
33015 | do you believe it? |
33015 | do you believe it?" |
33015 | what is the meaning of this?" |
33015 | where is your boy, mother? |
14578 | ''Like''has nothing to do with it; is it right? |
14578 | ''Who do you mean?'' 14578 *"Why not?" |
14578 | Ah, friend,I said,"it is bad to be left out from the Lord''s table here; what will it be to be left out of heaven?" |
14578 | And have not you also? |
14578 | And pray, what is that? |
14578 | And the missus inside( pointing to the dining- room),"be she converted?" |
14578 | Are you coming to church to- night? |
14578 | Are you quite sure? |
14578 | Are you sure of that? |
14578 | Are you wood, or leather, or stone? 14578 Be they converted too?" |
14578 | But do you never think about your soul, John? |
14578 | But suppose you think so? |
14578 | But what does the Scripture say? |
14578 | But what,I said,"if you have been neglecting and slighting God''s love for a long time, and He is now moving you with fear to return to Him?" |
14578 | But,I asked,"suppose you have not repented and believed, what then?" |
14578 | But,I said,"do you not see that faith does not consist in believing what you write, but in what God has written? |
14578 | But,I said,"have you been home yet?" |
14578 | But,I said,"what will they think when they see me?" |
14578 | Can it be true? 14578 Could you do that?" |
14578 | Did you never come as a sinner, and obtain the forgiveness of your sins? |
14578 | Do you believe that He has done that?'' 14578 Do you believe, then,"said my visitor,"in the fire of hell? |
14578 | Do you doubt me? |
14578 | Do you hear him? |
14578 | Do you know me? |
14578 | Do you mean Gehenna, the place of torment? |
14578 | Do you mean to say then,she replied, with surprise,"that you have no sins?" |
14578 | Do you mean to say,he continued,"that the Church is not the very ark of salvation?" |
14578 | Do you mind telling me about it? |
14578 | Do you really believe all this? |
14578 | Do you thank Him for it? |
14578 | Do you? |
14578 | Go on with your text,said the vicar, quietly,"''Confounded be all they that serve graven images;''is that what you mean?" |
14578 | Have you any salt? 14578 Have you this living water?" |
14578 | Hear him? 14578 Here you are,"he said,"at it again, and they are getting worse and worse in the barn-- what ever is to be done? |
14578 | How can I consciously appoint or license you to anything in my diocese? |
14578 | How can you feel anything till you have it? 14578 How can you tell?" |
14578 | How did you get it? |
14578 | How is that? |
14578 | I again said,''Who do you mean?'' 14578 I know what converting or saving''grace is; but what is this?" |
14578 | I mean, does he preach about the forgiveness of sins? 14578 Is he converted?" |
14578 | Is it a figure of speech that the rich man fared sumptuously, that he died, that he was buried? 14578 Is not conversion God''s work?" |
14578 | Lost what? |
14578 | May I ask what I am to understand by these words? |
14578 | Mind? |
14578 | Now, look at me, for I am a man of business: when will you come? 14578 Now,"I said,"you have renounced wine and all; have you?" |
14578 | Oh, is that what you call revival work? 14578 Oh,"he replied,"will you preach tonight?" |
14578 | Oh,he said,"are you there, neighbour? |
14578 | Oh,said Billy,"you are come, are you? |
14578 | Shall I ask the Lord to come down from heaven again and die on the cross for you? |
14578 | Shall I do so? |
14578 | Shall we ask Him? |
14578 | Six shillings bid,said the auctioneer--"six shillings-- thank you; seven shillings; any more for that good old cupboard? |
14578 | That may be; but do you not think you ought to thank Him for what He did for you? |
14578 | There, did you not hear that? |
14578 | There, there,she said,"What does any one want clearer and cleaner than that?" |
14578 | Too late for what? |
14578 | Well then, will you give your heart to God also? |
14578 | Well, my friend,I said,"who are you?" |
14578 | Well, then, why do you suppose that I mean something uncharitable or bad? |
14578 | Well,I said,"and what did you do then?" |
14578 | What could I do with souls? |
14578 | What d''yer want with me? |
14578 | What did he say? |
14578 | What do you mean? |
14578 | What do you mean? |
14578 | What is all this confusion about? |
14578 | What is that? |
14578 | What is that? |
14578 | What is that? |
14578 | What is this? |
14578 | What services? |
14578 | What shall I pray for? |
14578 | What would you do if there was no wall? 14578 What''s that to you?" |
14578 | What''s the matter? 14578 What''s the matter?" |
14578 | What, not working today, John? |
14578 | What, then, is God, if I am''dear''only for telling you of His love? 14578 Where did they get it?" |
14578 | Where did they get it? |
14578 | Where is he? |
14578 | Which Canon is it against? |
14578 | Why do you ask me? |
14578 | Why do you not preach in dependence upon God and go without a book like that good man? 14578 Why not?" |
14578 | Why, Sam,said his master,"do n''t you like it?" |
14578 | Why,I asked,"what is it all about? |
14578 | William,I said,"did you ever see me before I came to this parish?" |
14578 | Would one of us, or both, take pity on him, and give him our company? |
14578 | You do believe that He has died for you- for you? |
14578 | You may know more about this some day, perhaps; but in the meantime will you allow me to ask you one thing: Do you believe in the Lord Jesus Christ? |
14578 | ''Oh, what shall I do? |
14578 | ''What is thy petition?'' |
14578 | .... What young man?" |
14578 | .... Will you not take a glass of wine?" |
14578 | .... Will you take some bread? |
14578 | After sighing and groaning several times, he said to himself,"What shall I do?--what shall I do? |
14578 | Afterwards introducing himself, he asked me very politely,"What is the secret of all this?" |
14578 | Again he disappeared for the whole day, until the evening, when he came into the vestry, and said,"Will you let me read prayers this evening?" |
14578 | Among others, the churchwarden came to me in a very excited state, and said,"What ever made you say,''Now or never!--now or never!''?" |
14578 | And how was I to reach them? |
14578 | And while Billy was pondering how to"rise"six shillings, the same man came up and said,"What do you want that cupboard for, Billy?" |
14578 | Are you converted? |
14578 | Are you hiding away from me?" |
14578 | Are you ill?" |
14578 | Are you quite sure that, with all your faith in Baptismal Regeneration, you are born again of the Spirit? |
14578 | Are you satisfied that you are now saved because you are in the Church?" |
14578 | As I walked about in this garb, I asked a friend,"How do you like it?" |
14578 | As soon as we entered her room, she said,"How do you do? |
14578 | As to"heart conversion,"what is conversion at all if the heart is not touched? |
14578 | But do you believe that Jesus died for you?" |
14578 | But it must be done with a firm and whole heart; not"Lord, shall I give the half of my goods to feed the poor?" |
14578 | But the question may be asked,"Is it possible for unsaved people( spiritually dead) to be so good and religious? |
14578 | But when did I say that you were unconverted? |
14578 | But, my brother, are you satisfied?" |
14578 | But, what if He does? |
14578 | But, what if He does?--what if He does? |
14578 | Can not you see that?" |
14578 | Can you tell me that you are?" |
14578 | Can you trust Him?" |
14578 | Converted, are ye?" |
14578 | Could n''t yer get in? |
14578 | Do n''t you remember three coast- guard men at Captain O--''s garden?" |
14578 | Do n''t you see me there every Sunday?" |
14578 | Do people become alike who look much at one another? |
14578 | Do you believe that Christ died for you?" |
14578 | Do you believe that the Lord Jesus died for you?" |
14578 | Do you hear, man? |
14578 | Do you know how to get forgiveness of sins?" |
14578 | Do you know why the good Lord has spared you for so long?" |
14578 | Do you mean to preach in future in dependence upon God?" |
14578 | Do you really wish you had never been born?" |
14578 | Do you remember once preaching about Abraham offering up his son Isaac? |
14578 | Do you think it is a material fire?" |
14578 | Have you got anything on your mind?" |
14578 | Have you had no real transaction with''God about them?" |
14578 | Have you heard that your vessel has gone down with all hands?" |
14578 | Have you not a green- and- red carpet- bag? |
14578 | He asked a stranger who was there, walking about, what he thought that old cupboard would go for? |
14578 | He became very restless, and at last interrupting, said, respectfully,"If you please, sir, is there much more of that?" |
14578 | He contented himself by asking me quietly,"And how long does your peace last?" |
14578 | He continued,"Will you come to my house and preach this evening? |
14578 | He did so, and looking grave, sounded my lungs, put his ear to my chest and then asked,"What is the matter with your left lung?" |
14578 | He looked at me in a strange way, and then, leaning his back against a stone fence, he said,"Are you converted?" |
14578 | He said to his visitor,"What do you want here?" |
14578 | He then challenged me on another point, and said,"Have you peace with God?" |
14578 | Hear what? |
14578 | Hence the Lord''s exclamation,"Art thou a master of Israel, and knowest not these things?" |
14578 | Her mother and sister came in, saying,"Is it not dreadful?" |
14578 | Her sayings and doings would fill a book; but who would believe the things? |
14578 | Here I challenged the statement, and said,"Have you any references there-- any''stars''or''daggers''to that?" |
14578 | How can I believe that Jesus died for me, and not thank Him?" |
14578 | How can you ask for forgiveness, and have it at the same time?" |
14578 | How could I be so blind and ignorant? |
14578 | How could I be so foolish, to give up a living, where there was vitality, though it was rough, for a superficial and artificial semblance of religion? |
14578 | How could they have forgiveness if they did not come to me? |
14578 | How did you come to break your pledge?" |
14578 | How did you manage to get here? |
14578 | How is it you are here? |
14578 | How old are you?" |
14578 | Human reasoning would say,"What, then, is the use of ministry and sacraments? |
14578 | I agreed to this with thanks, as the first sign of sympathy I had found in him, and said,"Shall I go and take your services in exchange?" |
14578 | I am sometimes asked,"Is there not such a thing as a feeling which is too deep for expression?" |
14578 | I apologized for disturbing her, and was going away, when she said,"Will you not come in for a few minutes?" |
14578 | I asked this man afterwards what it was that had had such an effect upon him? |
14578 | I asked,"What is the matter?" |
14578 | I asked;"never think about another world and eternity?" |
14578 | I began to wonder at intervals,"What part of the diocese I was to be sent to?--Where is there a vacancy?" |
14578 | I bowed to her, and said,"Can I help you?" |
14578 | I came back among them, and, pointing to the door, said,"Is that where he stops?" |
14578 | I confessed my shortcomings, and the defectiveness of my teaching, and pleaded earnestly,"Lord, what wouldst Thou have me to do? |
14578 | I could not dare to say they would be lost forever; but where could they be now? |
14578 | I could not help inquiring,"Where did the Druids get this sign?" |
14578 | I disguised my voice, and asked,"What man?" |
14578 | I had a dream once--- do you ever have dreams? |
14578 | I had never seen an instrument of this kind before, and asked if he really believed in it? |
14578 | I inquired, laying the emphasis on you--"for you, as if you were the only person for whom He died?" |
14578 | I knocked at the door, and said,"Does Mrs. W-- live here?" |
14578 | I made way for him, and he came stepping into the room; then making a profound bow to the said"missus,"he asked,"Be there any maidens( servants)?" |
14578 | I mean, do you believe that He died; and that you have a personal interest in His death?" |
14578 | I replied,"Do I know it now?" |
14578 | I said,"Billy, do you know that I think the Lord wants to have mercy on you? |
14578 | I said,"Do not be angry with me, but what do you believe about Him?" |
14578 | I said,"Do you think your mother would let you return with us on a short visit? |
14578 | I said,"Frank, is that you? |
14578 | I said,"Why do you object to my going to see the poor fellow? |
14578 | I said,''what can you mean?'' |
14578 | I took it from the gospel of the day--"What think ye of Christ?" |
14578 | I was very happy, and said,''Whose garden is this?'' |
14578 | I wonder why God spares your life? |
14578 | In a few minutes after I received a short note, the purport of which was,"How can I be saved?" |
14578 | Is it not a fire which shall burn the soul-- a fire that never will be quenched-- where the worm will never die?" |
14578 | Is it not your own conscience that tells you that? |
14578 | Is it possible or reasonable to suppose that our Lord intended by these words to constitute all that assembly absolving priests? |
14578 | Is it possible, I thought, to have such close communion with God, apart from the Church and her ministrations? |
14578 | Is it so?" |
14578 | Is not such a state an indication of spiritual vitality?" |
14578 | Is not that literal? |
14578 | Is that what you want me to say?" |
14578 | Is that why husbands and wives so often resemble each other? |
14578 | Is the way to hell as pleasant as this? |
14578 | It may be asked, why did I permit such things? |
14578 | Looking at the graves of some of my faithful Churchmen, I wondered,"Is it really true that they are now cursing me for having misled them?" |
14578 | Mr. A. went on to ask me,"How did you get peace?" |
14578 | My friend, after a little pause, said,"Have you not heard of the revival?" |
14578 | No one could be more ignorant than the jailor at Philippi, but as soon as he was awakened he cried out,"What must I do to be saved?" |
14578 | No sooner had I gone, than John''s heart failed him, and he burst out crying aloud, and said to his wife,"Oh, Mary, what shall I do? |
14578 | Now then, what can I do for you?" |
14578 | Oh, what shall I do? |
14578 | Oh, what will become of us?" |
14578 | Once I was tempted to take a book up into the pulpit, feeling I had nothing to say, when something said to me,"Is that the way you depend upon God?" |
14578 | One Sunday, when I had been preaching on the text,"Cut it down; why cumbereth it the ground?" |
14578 | One day, during these services, she paid a visit to the Parsonage, and said,"My dear, have you a lemon in the house?" |
14578 | Or how can He give you any feelings till you thank Him for what He has already done for you? |
14578 | Poor dear man, like many others he was dreadfully frightened at the thought of"what will they think?" |
14578 | Presently you stopped, and, turning to me, said,''Why do n''t you come on?'' |
14578 | Seeing a workman in a field close by, I called to him, and asked''Where does this road lead to?'' |
14578 | Seeing that I was perturbed at his suggestion, he went on teasing me all breakfast time, and at last said,"Well, what is your decision? |
14578 | Shall I ask him?" |
14578 | Shall I denounce them as delusions, or superstitious legality? |
14578 | Shall I do this? |
14578 | She asked me,"Can you tell me the meaning of this?" |
14578 | She could not understand it, and said,"It is not so in churches, is it?" |
14578 | She hesitated, and then looking at me said,"Do you mean objectively, or subjectively?" |
14578 | So you are a Puseyite turned Evangelical, eh? |
14578 | Some may say,"But what did she obtain?" |
14578 | Some one asked,"what is he like?" |
14578 | Standing in the passage, and looking into the room where I was seated, he said,"Sir, are you a clergyman?" |
14578 | Still, the thought continually haunted me--- What can this"conversion"be? |
14578 | That next morning it came to my mind that I must go round to the people and ask them what they were thinking about? |
14578 | The Word says that God is more willing to take than you are to give: you believe you have given; but do you believe that God has taken? |
14578 | The next morning the same farmer appeared again, and said,"What do you want two pounds for?" |
14578 | The next morning, a yeoman called to me as I was passing her cottage, and said,"Master, what d''yer think? |
14578 | The question arrested me,"What if He says that to you? |
14578 | The questions that troubled me were-- what was I to do with three thousand people? |
14578 | Then I turned to the other, who was also crying, and said,"Do you believe?" |
14578 | Then looking at the crucifix on her table, I said,"What does that remind you of?" |
14578 | There was no hedge or tree within sight for him to hide behind; where could he be? |
14578 | They said,"This teaching seems all true and scriptural; but what will become of us if you go away, and another man comes who thinks otherwise? |
14578 | They said,"You will come again to- morrow?" |
14578 | They tried hard to laugh him out of it, and asked him which of the chapels he would join? |
14578 | Third,"When, then, was he reconciled?" |
14578 | This was a startling and an alarming word to many of my earnest people, who said,"What then will become of us?" |
14578 | This was more easily said than done; for where could I take the children, or how could I leave them at home? |
14578 | This was terrifying news for the vicar, who turned, and looking at me with astonishment, said, reproachfully,"How did you do it?" |
14578 | Was it from looking at sand always that they became that colour? |
14578 | We did so; and when my friend left me at the vicarage door, he said abruptly,"Will you let me write to you?" |
14578 | We held each other''s hands in silence, till at last I said,"How are you? |
14578 | Were you? |
14578 | What am I to do?" |
14578 | What are you doing there? |
14578 | What are your hearts made of, that God''s love can not touch or His Word break them?" |
14578 | What could he mean by having his eyes opened to see himself a wretched, lost man? |
14578 | What d''yer want with me?" |
14578 | What did he mean? |
14578 | What did she mean? |
14578 | What do you think?" |
14578 | What does he say?" |
14578 | What is the matter?" |
14578 | What shall I do?" |
14578 | What shall I do?" |
14578 | What shall I say to these things? |
14578 | What shall I sing?" |
14578 | What was that wonderful thing which God did for him and for the souls of his people? |
14578 | What was"seeing the way of salvation"? |
14578 | What will become of us?" |
14578 | When I assured her that her husband was only just beginning to live, she said,"Must we be Dissenters now? |
14578 | When I finished, I said,"Shall I print it?" |
14578 | When he had sat some time and had had some luncheon, my wife said,"I wonder whether this is the young man we heard about this morning? |
14578 | When she could speak, she said,"What will happen to him now? |
14578 | When will you come?" |
14578 | When will you come?" |
14578 | Who needs to depend upon God for this more than you do?" |
14578 | Why did Simon Peter fail at first? |
14578 | Why do men secede; and break their own hearts, and the hearts of those who love them? |
14578 | Why is this?" |
14578 | Why not''now''?" |
14578 | Why should I? |
14578 | Why, then, be so zealous about this? |
14578 | Will he die? |
14578 | Will you come in and take a cup of tea and rest a little?" |
14578 | Will you come over to luncheon with me?" |
14578 | Will you come?" |
14578 | Will you do the same for me?" |
14578 | Would you like to speak to them?" |
14578 | You could not have greater proof of it, could you? |
14578 | You have not told me anything''about Christ; have you nothing to say about the blood of Jesus, and about your sins? |
14578 | ___________________________"I am Billy Bray,"he replied, looking steadily at me with his twinkling eyes;"and be you the parson?" |
14578 | ____________________________* See Tract,"Are You Satisfied?" |
14578 | and are people so unconcerned about it?'' |
14578 | and did not William meet you on the road?" |
14578 | and inquiring of the people"Do you see it? |
14578 | and what was I to do with them? |
14578 | and what would become of them hereafter? |
14578 | and why did he subsequently succeed? |
14578 | and, more than this, does he expect people to have forgiveness?" |
14578 | are you come back?" |
14578 | asked our visitor, hastily;"What young man do you mean? |
14578 | do you hear it?" |
14578 | he said,"Where am I to come?" |
14578 | said the poor distracted man to his wife--"do you hear him?" |
14578 | said the vicar, starting,"you mean your sister Mary? |
14578 | what shall I do? |
14578 | who shall deliver me from the body of this death?" |
14578 | why not''now''?" |
41720 | Ai n''t no telephone in Heaven? |
41720 | Bill, did the warden come up here? 41720 But are you not employed by some religious sect?" |
41720 | But, madam, where are you going? |
41720 | But,she said, turning to a reporter,"what can I do in one conversation? |
41720 | Experiences? |
41720 | Girls, shall I pray for you when far away? 41720 Has there been any change since I was here last year?" |
41720 | Have you a mother? |
41720 | How far have you traveled? |
41720 | Is there anything too hard for the Lord? |
41720 | Lady, is you a preacher? 41720 Lord, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? |
41720 | May I write and tell her you are sick? 41720 O sinner turn, why will ye die? |
41720 | O ye of little faith, wherefore didst thou doubt? |
41720 | Oh, is that so? |
41720 | On what ground do you want a pass? |
41720 | Prisoner at the bar, have you anything to say why sentence of death should not be passed upon you? |
41720 | Sing us one more,the captain begged, The soldier bent his head, Then glancing round, with smiling lips,"You''ll join with me?" |
41720 | Then why do you keep him here? |
41720 | Then,he said,"I will have to send you to jail, or what will you do?" |
41720 | Think you that the Great Judge will hold me-- the poor, weak, helpless victim-- alone responsible for the murder of my wife? 41720 Thou hast written well of me,"said the Vision to the great teacher of Aquinum,"what reward dost thou desire?" |
41720 | Twenty- thirty- four? |
41720 | Under whose guidance do you work? |
41720 | Up there? 41720 What can I do-- what can I do? |
41720 | What do you want? |
41720 | What shall I do with them? |
41720 | What was the matter with you the first time? |
41720 | What''s the use? 41720 When?" |
41720 | Where,he inquired,"Who did such a thing?" |
41720 | Who Will Man the Life Boat? |
41720 | Who is your captain now? |
41720 | Why does He let me stay here and die if He loves me? |
41720 | Why, Harriet,he exclaimed,"what is the matter?" |
41720 | Why, Tommy, my boy, what is it? |
41720 | Will you meet me in Heaven? |
41720 | ''Twas the same wayward girl from the bowery, Who a life of adventure had led; Did the parson then laugh at her downfall? |
41720 | A few years since, on arriving in Omaha after returning from the East, I telephoned the jailer at the county jail:"Can I have a meeting?" |
41720 | A lady passenger spoke to me saying,"How could you sleep during that wreck?" |
41720 | Again she asked,"Have you ever been a Christian?" |
41720 | Again you asked,"Have you ever been one?" |
41720 | All eyes were fixed upon me, and I asked,"Is there one Christian here? |
41720 | All its dangers braving, precious souls to save? |
41720 | An answering whisper came,"Friendless, with Jesus for your friend? |
41720 | And has He not told us,"Greater works than these shall ye do because I go unto my Father?" |
41720 | And now shall I turn back? |
41720 | And shall I fear to own His Cause?" |
41720 | And that there is hope in Christ for them if they will repent and confess their sin to Him? |
41720 | And then he said,"Do you remember the man and woman you saw yesterday in the guard- room talking?" |
41720 | And this case is only one of many; and where shall we draw the line? |
41720 | Are we seeking to reach the people? |
41720 | Are we willing that such a class of men not only hold such an enormous power, but add to it indefinitely? |
41720 | Are you going to remain here over another Sunday, and if so, will you be out again or do you go to the Military Prison? |
41720 | Arriving at the jail the kind jailor was shocked to see me in the officer''s charge, and said,"You are not a prisoner?" |
41720 | As I looked at him he said, with a smile,"Did you think it was one of the boys whom the superintendent had sent for you?" |
41720 | At the close of the meeting the evangelist said,"Sister, how did it happen that I met you just as I did this morning?" |
41720 | Both principle and policy declare this course is wise; Then why longer act the fool and wisdom''s voice despise? |
41720 | Brother, is n''t there in your breast at times an awful aching void? |
41720 | But I hear some one who never gave these things a thought say: How is this to be done? |
41720 | But I know if I should take my own life that it would be a terrible sin; but how can I help thinking such things in a place like this? |
41720 | But how could I go? |
41720 | But what did this hero say when asked,"Why did you insist on this other man''s ascending?" |
41720 | But, how should I get back to the camp? |
41720 | Can I be lonely, mother, dear, When thy pure spirit is so near? |
41720 | Can I live and know that you died upon the gallows?" |
41720 | Can innocence, then, guilty be? |
41720 | Can these men be transformed by the power of the Gospel? |
41720 | Can we not let poor fallen human beings see that we do care for them? |
41720 | Can we poor mortals ever forget our sorrow? |
41720 | Can you believe that I stayed to that after- meeting when every nerve in my body thrilled to get up and run out of the chapel? |
41720 | Can you find none for those now suffering for the same? |
41720 | Could I leave that great crowd of lost women to go on in their awful career without at least one manifesting a desire for a better life? |
41720 | Could it be possible? |
41720 | Could not many a man be saved by being put on probation from the start, who otherwise would be in great danger of being lost? |
41720 | Could perfect innocence endure without a shudder all that is detestable in human ingratitude and human rage? |
41720 | Could you say about when it will be ready? |
41720 | Dear Mother, will you pray for me? |
41720 | Dear reader, are you prepared to do that? |
41720 | Dear reader, do you ever think of the hardships and dangers through which these railroad men must pass? |
41720 | Did He not come"to seek and to save that which was lost?" |
41720 | Did I say"alone?" |
41720 | Did not the angels weep o''er the scene? |
41720 | Did you ask me where? |
41720 | Did you pray for money?" |
41720 | Do I not know their faults? |
41720 | Do pray for me, wo n''t you, that the Lord may lead me into all His will? |
41720 | Do punishments deter men from crime? |
41720 | Do the universal customs of the times foster and beget much of the crime committed? |
41720 | Do they not confess to me their guilt? |
41720 | Do you ask what is the secret of her success? |
41720 | Do you know that every drunkard uses tobacco? |
41720 | Do you need some tracts or papers? |
41720 | Do you not feel the chill? |
41720 | Do you realize how much a busy man needs the prayers of God''s people? |
41720 | Do you think that it was the fear of death, and that that was sufficient to shake to its utmost center the pure and innocent soul of the Son of Man? |
41720 | Does it not rise to the surface at times and overwhelm us, so that nothing but the soothing presence of Jesus can comfort us? |
41720 | Does the discipline of prisons have anything to do with the commission of offenses by convicts when released? |
41720 | Does war beget murder elsewhere? |
41720 | Even as he had clambered up the stairs a guard had cried,"shall I shoot?" |
41720 | Finally I said,"Can you take us to the depot?" |
41720 | Friendless? |
41720 | Glancing over them she exclaimed,"Is it possible? |
41720 | H.?" |
41720 | Have we tried by example and precept to show the criminals that we were really their friends and sincerely cared for their souls? |
41720 | Have we won them to a better life and to good citizenship? |
41720 | Have ye been in the wild waste places, Where the lost and wandering stray? |
41720 | Have ye looked for my sheep in the desert, For those who have missed their way? |
41720 | Have ye trodden the lonely highway, The foul and the darksome street? |
41720 | Have ye wept with the broken- hearted In their agony of woe? |
41720 | Have you any Christian papers and tracts that you would please send to me? |
41720 | Have you heard from her yet? |
41720 | Have you heard that our dear Chaplain''s helpmeet has recently taken this journey? |
41720 | He came forward and extended his hand cordially, saying,"Do n''t you know me, Mother?" |
41720 | He replied:"Sister Wheaton, have you prayed about it?" |
41720 | He said,"Will you give bail for your good behavior?" |
41720 | Helpless? |
41720 | His wife would not consent to entertain me, and I answered,"Where shall I go? |
41720 | How act upon them? |
41720 | How are you to command the respect of those under you? |
41720 | How are you to proceed? |
41720 | How can I live my sentence out in this way? |
41720 | How can any man have the heart not to believe the Bible and rest his case upon the bosom of the good Lord who died for us? |
41720 | How could I eat, when all these prisoners need the gospel so much?" |
41720 | How could I meet them at the Judgment? |
41720 | How could it be done? |
41720 | How could they? |
41720 | How gain mastery over them? |
41720 | How is it that friends are so often denied the privilege of seeing those that are under death sentence or those who are sick and dying? |
41720 | How long, O Lord, how long must such things be in a Christian land? |
41720 | How many girls and boys are sacrificed yearly to fill the saloonkeepers''coffers and fill up hell? |
41720 | How many inmates of our prisons have the gospel presented to them? |
41720 | How many of you are living in lasciviousness, the sin that''s hidden but that God sees? |
41720 | How many of you will pray for_ us_ as we cross the ocean again to go to our own land? |
41720 | How move their hearts? |
41720 | How much more so under other circumstances? |
41720 | How shall we keep pace in penal improvements with the great material progress of the outside world? |
41720 | How then can I write? |
41720 | Hurriedly I said to her,"Do you want to go to Europe?" |
41720 | I am sure she wants to know about you?" |
41720 | I asked all who wanted to be saved to raise their hands; then said,"Will you not give your hearts to God now?" |
41720 | I asked my guide,"Is there not one Christian here in these mountains?" |
41720 | I asked,"How much is this?" |
41720 | I asked,"Is there one Christian here among you prisoners?" |
41720 | I clasped her hand, hardened by work, and said,"Will you pray for me, sister?" |
41720 | I had only talked a few minutes when the proprietor came in and asked,"Are you a customer here?" |
41720 | I had only time to say,"Will you sing?" |
41720 | I knew the Lord had sent me, and how could I meet Him at the Judgment and tell Him I had failed? |
41720 | I longed to be dead, but one night the thought came:"Suppose you were dead, what then? |
41720 | I looked at the man and he said:"Do n''t you know me, mother?" |
41720 | I said of one of the girls to the matron,"This girl looks like a good Christian-- who is she?" |
41720 | I said that I did not and he then asked,"What is your work?" |
41720 | I said to them,"What have you in that box?" |
41720 | I said,"For the sake of young men which you now employ to control and guard these women, wo n''t you do this?" |
41720 | I said,"Is n''t this Defiance?" |
41720 | I said,"O, boys, CAN''T I RIDE THAT MULE?" |
41720 | I said,"Please let me get my shawl, and will you please let me ask one of the ladies at the mission to go with me?" |
41720 | I said,"What can you eat?" |
41720 | I said,"What will it all amount to-- I a friendless prisoner, doomed for life?" |
41720 | I said,"Where?" |
41720 | I said,"Where?" |
41720 | I said,"Will you not send an officer to show us the way to our lodging, as you have arrested us without a cause and it is late at night?" |
41720 | I said,"You are an officer, are you not?" |
41720 | I say to you, is this not enough to satisfy the most bitter feelings of any avowed enemy? |
41720 | I stood trembling and thought,"Must I stand all alone here with no one to pray for me, or encourage me in my labor for the Master?" |
41720 | I was in Philadelphia walking along the street praying--"O Lord, where next-- what wilt Thou have me to do?" |
41720 | I was sure God had sent us, and said:"Will you permit us to see the men in their cells?" |
41720 | I wept and prayed most of the night and cried,"Oh God, can you let me fail now?" |
41720 | Idle? |
41720 | If any one will pray for us, wo n''t you raise your hand?" |
41720 | If prisons are supposed to be erected for the purpose of reformation, why not make them in reality what they are intended to be? |
41720 | If so, raise your hands?" |
41720 | If ten years is not sufficient punishment to make man control himself in future, why not be merciful and kill him at once? |
41720 | In my very darkest moments Would you know what comforts me? |
41720 | In terror I cried:"O, what shall I do? |
41720 | In the language of Socrates,"Why should we who are never angry at an ill- conditioned body, always be angry with an ill- conditioned soul?" |
41720 | In the tender voice of the Holy Spirit came these words:"Can you give up all and follow me? |
41720 | Is He not at the Father''s right hand, interceding for us and for the souls to whom He sends us? |
41720 | Is anything too hard for the Lord? |
41720 | Is humanity wholly dead? |
41720 | Is it because I have sinned so much? |
41720 | Is it not enough that he has lost home, friends, wife, children and happiness at one false move? |
41720 | Is not that precious news? |
41720 | Is social vengeance a failure, and are other means necessary to prevent crime? |
41720 | It is very simple, my dear sister, is it not? |
41720 | It must be expected that some will fall again; but why should the many suffer for the few? |
41720 | It was late and as we came down the mountain side I saw a light at a little distance, and I said,"Where is that light?" |
41720 | It''s curious, is n''t it, chaplain, what a twelve months may bring? |
41720 | Jerusalem, my happy home, When shall I come to thee; When shall my sorrows have an end? |
41720 | Joyful? |
41720 | Just then a well- dressed old gentleman spoke to me and said,"Do you belong to the Salvation Army?" |
41720 | Just where to draw the line, and how to enforce discipline? |
41720 | Kindly, tenderly I talked to them, thinking to myself, what if it were my boy, now safe in Heaven? |
41720 | Lowry._] Lonely? |
41720 | Many like him are saying:"Am I my brother''s keeper?" |
41720 | Men and women who will place in the hand of the prisoner the Bible, in exchange for the revolver, dagger and bottle? |
41720 | Mother Prindle, who was with me said,"Do you know Mother Wheaton?" |
41720 | Mother, why do I get scared? |
41720 | Must death overtake me here? |
41720 | My Dear Friend: Do you think we have forgotten you? |
41720 | My brethren, My friends, My disciples, Can ye dare to follow me? |
41720 | My dear and only child, will God and man have mercy on him? |
41720 | Need I say that my cry was not in vain? |
41720 | No wonder we often hear the cry go up from some poor wounded or crushed heart saying: O, God, is there no mercy left in man? |
41720 | O brother, sister, have we had charity that suffereth long and is kind? |
41720 | O faithless one, is there anything too hard for the Lord? |
41720 | O if I would die now what would become of me? |
41720 | O my God, will you not help me to provide a home for such as these? |
41720 | O thou of little faith, wherefore did''st thou doubt? |
41720 | Oh, God, how long shall the cry of the prisoner be heard? |
41720 | One of them replied,"Yes, why not now?" |
41720 | Only trust Him, He will save you-- Ca n''t you hear His sweet voice call? |
41720 | Our Saviour''s last act of mercy and forgiving love was shown toward a prisoner and shall we imitate His example, or shall we not? |
41720 | Please, wo n''t you let me go?" |
41720 | Reader, did it pay? |
41720 | Reader, is there not a sympathetic chord in your heart for these poor unfortunates? |
41720 | Reader, think you this man was any more a criminal at heart than thousands who move among men honored and respected? |
41720 | Relatives asked me,"Who told you?" |
41720 | Revenge? |
41720 | Saddened? |
41720 | Say, George, when you go back, will you tell the warden Riley''s coming up to call on him?" |
41720 | Set up your scaffold- altars in our land, And, consecrators of Law''s darkest crime, Urge to its loathsome work the hangman''s hand? |
41720 | Shall it be yours to touch that vibrant chord And share the honor of the great reward? |
41720 | She said,"How do you know?" |
41720 | She said,"Will you meet me in Heaven?" |
41720 | Should not the pardoning power be exercised frequently before the convicted man ever reaches the prison at all? |
41720 | Sister Wheaton, wo n''t you come with me to church?" |
41720 | Sister, am I right or wrong? |
41720 | Sisters, brothers, are you and I clear? |
41720 | So I said,"Can I come and see you again?" |
41720 | Some one asked the question,"What is the best thing that can be said of a friend?" |
41720 | Staggering back he exclaimed,"My----, where did you get those things?" |
41720 | The girl herself replied,"Do n''t you know me, mother?" |
41720 | The governor looked doubtful, mused a few minutes and said,"You will go back on the river and be a mate again, I suppose?" |
41720 | The man with whom I had been speaking looked on surprised and said,"Who was that man?" |
41720 | The music comes winding through the corridors of the prison and in all dark wards the whisper is heard:"What''s that? |
41720 | The officer said,"Are you making all of this ado and trouble?" |
41720 | The question is often asked me,"How did you become interested in this work, and learn to understand the needs of the prisoner?" |
41720 | The rails may be all right, the bridge may be safe; but who knows?" |
41720 | The sister whispered and asked,"Did you hear that sound?" |
41720 | The spirit of a man will sustain his_ infirmity_, but a wounded or broken spirit who can bear?" |
41720 | The text comes to me so forcibly,''What, could ye not watch with me one hour?'' |
41720 | The unusual sound brought the keeper, who asked,"What is the matter with you?" |
41720 | Then I said,"Girls, wo n''t you pray?" |
41720 | Then sweetly rose the singer''s voice Amid unwonted calm,"Am I a soldier of the Cross, A follower of the Lamb? |
41720 | Then with all these sacred memories Welling in these hearts of ours, Who in all this land of sunshine Could forbid this gift of flowers? |
41720 | There are children, bright and gay, Now at school and now at play; Why do playmates push them off, Only at their tears to scoff? |
41720 | Think you I''m lonely, mother, dear, When Jesus thus is ever near? |
41720 | Think you that such things as these do not cry to God for vengeance? |
41720 | This lady turned her face to the News emissaries and inquired in a sweet silvery tone:"Going to church, brothers?" |
41720 | Thy joys, when shall I see? |
41720 | Tired? |
41720 | Up there?" |
41720 | Upon the pedestal of the statue were these words,"What shall the harvest be?" |
41720 | WILL IT PAY? |
41720 | Waiting? |
