There is a day coming when there will be a religion without repentance, a salvation without the Holy Ghost, a Heaven without Hell.
William Booth
Image
I must assert in the most unqualified way that it is primarily and mainly for the sake of saving the soul that I seek the salvation of the body.
William Booth
Image
I will tell you the secret. God has had all there was of me.
William Booth
Image
The greatness of a man's power is the measure of his surrender.
William Booth
Image
If you want to change the future, then you are going to have to trouble the present.
William Booth
Image
Your days at the most cannot be very long, so use them to the best of your ability for the glory of God and the benefit of your generation.
William Booth
Image
Put your ear down to the Bible, and hear Him bid you go and pull sinners out of the fire of sin. Put your ear down to the burdened, agonized heart of humanity, and listen to its pitiful wail for help.
William Booth
Image
Some of my best men are women!
William Booth
Image
Will you go to His feet and place yourself entirely at His disposal?
William Booth
Image
There appears to be a deeply embedded uneasiness in our culture about throwing away junk that can be reused. Perhaps, in part, it is guilt about consumption. Perhaps it also feels unnatural. Mother Nature doesn't throw stuff away. Dead trees, birds, beetles and elephants are pretty quickly recycled by the system.
William Booth
Image
Faith and works should travel side by side, step answering to step, like the legs of men walking. First faith, and then works and then faith again, and then works again--until they can scarcely distinguish which is the one and which is the other.
William Booth
Image
A man's labor is not only his capital but his life. When it passes it returns never more. To utilize it, to prevent its wasteful squandering, to enable the poor man to bank it up for use hereafter, this surely is one of the most urgent tasks before civilization.
William Booth
Image
Go straight for souls, and go for the worst.
William Booth
Image
Look well to the fire of your souls, for the tendency of fire is to go out.
William Booth
Image
We must wake ourselves up! Or somebody else will take our place, and bear our cross, and thereby rob us of our crown.
William Booth
Image
I must go, not only to those who need me, but to those who need me most.
William Booth
Image
Most Christians would like to send their recruits to Bible college for five years. I would like to send them to hell for five minutes. That would do more than anything else to prepare them for a lifetime of compassionate ministry.
William Booth
Image
No sort of defense is needed for preaching outdoors, but it would take a very strong argument to prove that a man who has never preached beyond the walls of his meetinghouse has done his duty. A defense is required for services within buildings rather than for worship outside of them.

... you cannot make a man clean [simply] by washing his shirt.

Some men's passion is for gold. some men's passion is for art. some men's passion is for fame. my passion is for souls
