"'Not called!' did you say? 'Not heard the call,' I think you should
say. 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.
Go stand by the gates of hell, and hear the damned entreat you to go
to their father's house and bid their brothers and sisters, and
servants and masters not to come there. And then look Christ in the
face, whose mercy you have professed to obey, and tell him whether you
will join heart and soul and body and circumstances in the march to
publish his mercy to the world."
William Booth
