Some young preacher will study until he has to get thick glasses to take care of his failing eyesight because he has an idea he wants to become a famous preacher. He wants to use Jesus Christ to make him a famous preacher. He\u2019s just a huckster buying and selling and getting gain. They will ordain him and he will be known as Reverend and if he writes a book, they will make him a doctor. And he will be known as Doctor; but he\u2019s still a huckster buying and selling and getting gain. And when the Lord comes back, He will drive him out of the temple along with the other cattle.<\/p>\n

But what I\u2019m preaching and what Paul taught and what was brought down through the years and what gave breath to the modern missionary movement that you and I know about and belong to was just the opposite: \u201cO, God, we don\u2019t want anything You have, we want You.\u201d That\u2019s the cry of a soul on its way up.<\/p>\n
Matthew 21:12\u201313; Galatians 6:14; Philippians 3:10; 1 Timothy 1:12\u201315<\/p>\n
