At the age of 21, he became a lay pastor at nearby Stacksteads.After a major awakening and deepening of his faith in his late twenties via a personal epiphany after which he burned all his early sermons, he moved on to larger congregations and greater popularity.

Conversion needs to be defined; even Christians are not agreed as to what is meant by it. The significance attached to the term varies in the different schools of religious thought. With some, conversion is a comprehensive term which stands for the whole process of the soul’s return to God. To be converted with them means to be saved; an experience that includes Repentance, Forgiveness, Regeneration, Assurance, and all the blessings of the state of grace. To others, conversion is the proce...

“Good wine needs no bush,” and such excellent wine as this volume contains wants no commendation. But my old friend expressed a strong desire that I should write a Foreword. And I would rather be thought presumptuous than disloyal to his behest.A pathetic interest attaches to these pages. While they were still in the press their author passed on to his great reward. The book may, therefore, be regarded as in some way a memorial volume. In subject and content it is worthy of such de...

In sending forth this book on Prayer a word of explanation is due. The chapters were written for Joyful News, and appeared as devotional meditations during Lent. That explains everything except why they are now published in book form, and that is explained by the importunity and persistence of those to whom they were made a blessing. They were never intended for a book. They were written for the sole purpose of helping Joyful News readers in the Life and Ministry of Praye...

The conversation was very frank and brotherly, and turned finally upon my own work. My friends reproached me for ignoring their oft-repeated entreaties that I would publish a volume of sermons. I replied that it had been a fixed rule of my life to regard an open door as an essential element in a call, and for this I had no call. Then I was...

Whether Christian Perfection is attainable in this life is a question of first importance. There is a perfection that is not. The final perfecting of grace awaits its consummation in glory. This is the perfection to which St. Paul said he had not yet attained, but to which he was ever pressing forward as the great end for which he was apprehended in Christ Jesus. That is the perfection of finality, whereas Christian Perfection is one of adjustment and completeness. It does not even imply m...
