The following statement was originally made in 1901.'When [William] Booth was asked by an American newspaper what he regarded as the chief dangers ahead for the twentieth century, he replied tersely:
"Religion without the Holy Ghost,
Christianity without Christ,
forgiveness without repentance,
salvation without regeneration,
politics without God,
and heaven without hell."'
Christianity without Christ,
forgiveness without repentance,
salvation without regeneration,
politics without God,
and heaven without hell."'
The War Cry, 5 January 1901, p 7. Cited in Ian Murray's The Old Evangelicalism, p xi.
Josh, that really blows my mind, it seems that Mr. Booth has hit the nail right on the head. Wow!
