Where are
the young men and women of this generation who will hold their lives cheap and be faithful even unto death?
Where are
those who will lose their lives for Christ’s sake — flinging them away for love of Him?
Where are
those who will live dangerously and be reckless in His service?
Where are
His lovers — those who love Him and the souls of men more than their own
reputations or
comfort or
very life?
Where are
the men who say “no” to self,
who take up Christ’s cross to bear it after Him,
who are willing to be nailed to it
in college
or office,
home
or mission field,
who are willing, if need be,
to bleed,
to suffer and
to die on it?
Where are
the adventurers,
the explorers,
the buccaneers for God,
who count one human soul of far greater value than the rise or fall of an empire?
Where are
the men who are willing to pay the price of vision?
Where are
the men of prayer?
Where are
God’s men in this day of God’s power?
