Something is wrong when a company of worshippers meet week after week to enjoy communion with the Lord, and sit unconcerned about the multitudes who in the same city live in misery, in hunger, in squalor, in vice and in sin.
No one would think of studying the theory of electricity, or physics, or mathematics, without going on to a further practical study of applied electricity, or physics, or mathematics. It is for the sake of the latter that we study the former.....The church holds a position of power in the world only in proportion as it applies the Christianity it teaches in theory, and if it does not succeed in the practical service, something is wrong with its theory.
