More quotes by William Carey
Expect great things from God, receive great things from God. Expect little from God, receive little from God.
William Carey
Expect great things from God, attempt great things for God.
William Carey
I'm not afraid of failure I'm afraid of succeeding at things that don't matter.
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
Those who would be employed in propagating the Gospel should be familiar with the doctrines he is to combat and the doctrines he is to teach, and acquire a complete knowledge both of the Sacred Scriptures and of these philosophical and mythological dogmas which form the souls of the Buddhist and Hindu Systems.
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
Without justification salvation is not of grace, but of works.
William Carey
I can plod. I can persevere in any definite pursuit. To this I owe everything.
William Carey
If the biographer gives me credit for being a plodder, he will describe me justly. Anything beyond this will be too much. I can plod. I can persevere in any definite pursuit. To this I owe everything.
William Carey
Add to this occasional journeys, ministers’ meetings, etc., and you will rather wonder that I have any time, than that I have so little. I am not my own, nor would I choose for myself. Let God employ me where he thinks fit, and give me patience and discretion to fill up my station to his honour and glory.
William Carey
There are grave difficulties on every hand, and more are looming ahead. Therefore, we must go forward.
William Carey
The most glorious works of grace that have ever took place, have been in answer to prayer.
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
William Carey chides his countrymen for deciding it would be impossible for the Gospel to travel over great distances and to penetrate varied cultures when they are willing to face the same trials for the sake of commerce.
William Carey
I will venture to go... but remember that you must hold the ropes.
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
It is the duty of those who are entrusted with the Gospel to endeavor to make it known among all nations.
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
Every Christian should live life with an open Bible and an open map.
William Carey
All my friends are but one, but He is all sufficient.
