"The temptation to modify the teachings of Christ with the hope that larger numbers may 'accept' Him is cruelly strong in this day of speed, size, noise and crowds. But if we know what is good for us we'll resist it with every power at our command. To yield can only result in a weak, ineffective Christianity in this generation, and death and desolation in the next. To try to get souls saved at the expense of the glory of God, is to cheat God of his glory, and not get souls saved anyhow. We just make proselytes who aren't Christians, but something else. The methods of the Holy Ghost are pure, holy, clean methods, and they are such methods that shall humble the flesh. They keep you sometimes in the state of suspension because God wants to humble you. But if you won't take the humbling and you won't wait on God, then there are always methods of raising money, methods of getting things done. You can learn from TV, you can learn from Madison Avenue, and you can learn from businessmen...."
