More quotes by William Carey
The future is as bright as the promise of God.
William Carey
The most glorious works of grace that have ever took place, have been in answer to prayer and it is in this way, we have the greatest reason to suppose, that the glorious out-pouring of the Spirit, which we expect at last, will be bestowed.
William Carey
...even on the low ground of common sense I seemed to be called to be a missionary. Is the kingdom a harvest field? Then I thought it reasonable that I should seek to work where the work was most abundant and the workers fewest.
William Carey
I was once young and now I am old, but not once have I been witness to God's failure to supply my need when first I had given for the furtherance of His work. He has never failed in His promise, so I cannot fail in my service to Him.
William Carey
We must not be contented however with praying, without exerting ourselves in the use of means for the obtaining of those things we pray for.
William Carey
Prayer - secret, fervent, believing prayer - lies at the root of all personal godliness.
William Carey
If you want the Kingdom speeded, go out and speed it yourselves. Only obedience rationalizes prayer. Only Missions can redeem your intercessions from insincerity.
William Carey
I'm not afraid of failure I'm afraid of succeeding at things that don't matter.
William Carey
Without justification salvation is not of grace, but of works.
William Carey
It is the duty of those who are entrusted with the Gospel to endeavor to make it known among all nations.
William Carey
All my friends are but one, but He is all sufficient.
William Carey
Expect great things from God, receive great things from God. Expect little from God, receive little from God.
William Carey
I will venture to go... but remember that you must hold the ropes.
William Carey
We have only to keep the end in view, and have our hearts thoroughly engaged in the pursuit of it, and means will not be very difficult.
William Carey
Surely it is worthwhile to lay ourselves out with all our might in promoting the cause and kingdom of Christ.
William Carey
Is not the commission of our Lord still binding upon us? Can we not do more than now we are doing?
William Carey
You have been saying much about Dr. Carey and his work. When I am gone, say nothing about Dr. Carey speak about Dr. Carey's Saviour.
William Carey
To know the will of God, we need an open Bible and an open map.
William Carey
A Christian minister is a person who in a peculiar sense is not his own he is the servant of God, and therefore ought to be wholly devoted to Him.
William Carey
I went to India as a missionary to save England from spiritual collapse.
