More quotes by Hudson Taylor
Fruit-bearing involves cross-bearing. There are not two Christs--an easygoing one for easygoing Christians, and a suffering, toiling one for exceptional believers. There is only one Christ. Are you willing to abide in Him, and thus to bear much fruit?
Hudson Taylor
God's work is not man working for God it is God's own work, though often wrought through man's hands.
Hudson Taylor
Nothing can take the place of a real hunger for souls, or make up for the lack of it.
Hudson Taylor
A little thing is a little thing, but faithfulness in little things is a great thing.
Hudson Taylor
Carrying the cross does mean following in Jesus' footsteps. And in His footsteps are rejection, brokenheartedness, persecution and death. There are not two Christs - an easy going one for easy going Christians, and a suffering one for exceptional believers. There is only one Christ. Are we willing to follow His lead?
Hudson Taylor
There are three great truths, 1st, That there is a God 2nd, That He has spoken to us in the Bible 3rd, That He means what He says.
Hudson Taylor
Christ liveth in me. And how great the difference...instead of bondage, liberty instead of failure, quiet victories within instead of fear and weakness, a restful sense of sufficiency in Another.
Hudson Taylor
Are you in a hurry, flurried, distressed? Look up! See the Man in the Glory! Let the face of Jesus shine upon you—the face of the Lord Jesus Christ. Is He worried, troubled, distressed? There is no wrinkle on His brow, no least shade of anxiety. Yet the affairs are His as much as yours.
Hudson Taylor
When I get to China, I will have no claim on any one for anything. My claim will be alone in God and I must learn before I leave England to move men through God by prayer alone.
Hudson Taylor
Believing prayer will lead to whole-hearted action.
Hudson Taylor
While unbelief sees the difficulties, faith sees God between itself and them.
Hudson Taylor
If I had a thousand pounds, China should have it. If I had a thousand lives, China should have them. No! Not China, but Christ. Can we do too much for Him?
Hudson Taylor
If we wait till we run no risk, the gospel will never be introduced into the interior.
Hudson Taylor
Oh, for eloquence to plead the cause of China, for a pencil dipped in fire to paint the condition of this people.
Hudson Taylor
But how to get faith strengthened? Not by striving after faith, but by resting on the Faithful One.
Hudson Taylor
It matters not how great the pressure is, only where the pressure lies. As long as the pressure does not come between me and my Savior, but presses me to Him, then the greater the pressure, the greater my dependence upon Him.
Hudson Taylor
Depend on it. God's work done in God's way will never lack God's supply. He is too wise a God to frustrate His purposes for lack of funds, and He can just as easily supply them ahead of time as afterwards, and He much prefers doing so.
Hudson Taylor
[God] wants you to have something far better than riches and gold, and that is helpless dependence upon Him.
Hudson Taylor
We are not only to renounce evil, but to manifest the truth. We tell people the world is vain let our lives manifest that it is so. We tell them that our home is above and that all these things are transitory. Does our dwelling look like it? O to live consistent lives!
Hudson Taylor
As our Father makes many a flower to bloom unseen in the lonely desert, [let us] do all that we can do, as under God's eye, though no other eye ever take note of it.
Hudson Taylor
