The Passion for Souls

Book excerpt: DR. SMITH'S book, "The Passion for Souls," for its size is the most powerful plea for Revival I have ever read. He has truly been led by the Spirit of God in preparing it. To his emphasis for the need of a Holy Spirit Revival I can give the heartiest amen. What I saw of Revival in Korea and in China is in fullest accord with the Revival called for in this book. It is most timely that DR. Smith has called attention to man effort and man method in modem Revival. If we all had faith to wait upon God in intense believing prayer there would be genuine Holy Ghost Revival, and the living God would get all the glory. In Manchuria and China, when we did nothing else than give the address and let the people pray, and kept out of sight as far as possible, we saw the mightiest manifestations of Divine power. Had I the wealth of a millionaire I would put "The Passion for Souls" in every Christian home on this continent and confidently look for a Revival which would sweep round the world.
