A Passion for Souls
Romans 9:8
That is, They which are the children of the flesh, these are not the children of God…

John Smith, the mighty Wesleyan preacher, used to say, "I am a broken-hearted man; not for myself, but on account of others. God has given me such a sight of the value of precious souls, that I cannot live if souls are not saved. Oh, give me souls, or else I die!"
