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
Consider six or eight hours a day sacred to the Lord and His work, and let nothing hinder your giving this time (to language study and practice) till you can preach fluently and intelligibly.
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
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.

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?

Oh, for eloquence to plead the cause of China, for a pencil dipped in fire to paint the condition of this people.
Hudson Taylor
Would that God would make hell so real to us that we cannot rest heaven so real that we must have men there, Christ so real that our supreme motive and aim shall be to make the Man of Sorrows the Man of Joy by the conversion to him of many.
Hudson Taylor
It is not lost time to wait upon God!
Hudson Taylor
The real secret of an unsatisfied life lies too often in an unsurrendered will.
Hudson Taylor
All God's giants have been weak men and women who have gotten hold of God's faithfulness.
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
All God's giants have been weak men who did great things for God because they reackoned on God being with them.

Learn to move man, through God, by prayer alone
Hudson Taylor
Let us never forget that what we are is more important than what we do.
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
[God] wants you to have something far better than riches and gold, and that is helpless dependence upon Him.
Hudson Taylor
Would that God would make hell so real to us that we cannot rest Heaven so real that we must have men there.
Hudson Taylor
If we wait till we run no risk, the gospel will never be introduced into the interior.
