SOUL WINNING MINISTRY
IN FOUR PARTS.
By Rev. Israel Putnam.
Part Third.
In tbese years tber-j bas been at
work a subtile influence of evil by
which the power of prayer has been
sadly discounted. This talk about tbe
reflex influence of prayer, coupled with
tbe influence of materialism aud ntili
tariaosim, bas made many ministers
pigmies in tbe realm of prayer. True,
prayer bas its beneficial reflex in
fluence, but living too much in the
past tends to disqualify for tbe present.
He who lives near to his Lord bas
provon again aud again that God hears
and answers prayer, as in tbe foliat
ing cases viz. Catherine of Sienna,
George Mnoller, Hudson Taylor and
Charles U. Finny and others.
Tbe first night following tbe con
version of Father Cbiniquy be spent
iu prayer. 'I be next day be preached
and a thousand souls were woo. A
Baptist minister, daring a pastoiate of
11 years, received some into tbe oburcb
every communion service, through the
prayers of a Buffering saint. Mr. Spur
geon said "I have no conOdence iu tbe
polished literary effort to bring about
a revival, but I have all confidence in
tbe old saint who could weep ber eyes
out because men are lost."
"Prayer 4s appointed to convey tbe
blessings God designs to give." With
joyful communion it opens tbe morns
first honr and with trnstful repose
closes tbo last at night with tbe same
blesstul communion. , Prayer climbs
tbe ladder Jacob saw. It touches the
ear and heart cf tbe Omnipotent and
brings tbe needed equipment for ser
vice. As a minister prays in faith and
understanding and importunity so ho
prevails iu power to win souls.
If more time was given to prayer
and less to dollars, especially in the
doubtful methods often used to obtain
them, there would be more of dollars
aud souls to encourage men and please
God.
Ten hours is usually given to temp
oral thiugs while cne is spent with
purpose to win souls. Is this God's
way? Or did Jesus say, "Seek first
tbe Kingdom of God and tbese things
shall be added?" See Matt. 6, 25-31.
Our Presiding Elders formerly were
almost all flaraiug Evangelists, kind
ling the Are of revival where ever they
went but this is so far, changed that a
soul-winner ainoug them is almost un
known and often they cannot stay even
topreaob once, but can only look after
financial matters. And tbe same is
also trne with tbe Bishops, as a whole,
and with such human leadership what
wonder if the body partake of tbe same
spirit as tbe bead. God grant that all
may partake more folly of and pattern
more fully after, the Great Head of
the oburcb.
I care not bow distant, or bumble
the Held, or diffloult the problem, or
severe tbe conflicts, tbe man who bas
God's commission to preaob tbe Ever
lasting Gospel is the King's messenger
with tbe King's message. Aud greater
than earthly Kings, or mighty war
riors, Qr discoverers of new worlds is
the man used of God to win never dy
ing souls to Jesus Christ: And one
reason why so many ministers fail of
reaohiug meu is beoause they fail to
understand tbe magnitude of their
commission. "They that are wise
shall shine as the brightness of tbe
firmament; and tbey that turn many
to righteousness as tbe stars forever,
and ever." Dau. 12, 3. ,
In an important sonse a true mini
ster of Christ is a discoverer of im
mortal souls, one of which is of more
value than teu thousand worlds. Wes
ley and Wellington were cousins, but
vastly different. The latter fought
battles, bathed the earth in tbo blood
of his fellow men, caused children and
widows to weep in bitterness of sorrow
over their absent dead, and wrapped
homes and cities in flames, lhe for
mer, who duriug his lifetime was de
spised by tbe rich and great in earthly
things, aud was turned out of the
oburohes, won seventy thousand soul"
to Christ, and exerts, today, a greater
influence in the world than any other
religious leader of modern times. Mil

Wellington is known to the world as a
man of selfish aims and a destroyer of
bis fellow men.- Of tbese two, which,
think you, is greater in Heaven's sight
today?
The man who has not a high con
ception of tbe call and office of the
christian ministry cannot apeak with
authority. Here is the secret of many
a man's failure. He is not sure of his
oomnission. He has little confidence
and knows not where to oast bis re-
j lianoe. When be btands before tbe
' multitude of tbe unsaved be often
wavers, aud there is an nncertain eonnd
in bis message wbicb betrays bim.
. O that all wonld wait in tbe upper
I room until tbey were conscious of tbe
greatness of their mission, aud then
like Peter at Pentecost, and tbe Master
Himself, speaks with antbority.
