Do Revivals Do Any Good? Ask Sam P. Jones


Revivals do not accomplish anything do they? Sam P. Jones (1847-1906) *"in Murfreesboro, Tenn., where he had preached with wonderful success, the grateful citizens made up and presented him a purse of $800. Handing back $600 of it he said: " Distribute that among the saloon-keepers who have been converted and quit their business, that they may have something for their families till they find something else to do for their support."

Why do churches, and their members who cry out about societies woes, not have revivals?
Does the church answer wrongly today if a leopard can change its spots? (Jeremiah 13:23)
Do Christians really believe that the gospel really works?

A negative response to revivals changing lives, families and societies is that Sam Jones work was over 106 years ago.
The Gospels were written over 2,000 years ago.
Do they work?

Why has your church not had a revival if it is needed.
I am an evangelist and ready to serve.

I still believe in
Christ Alone!

Fletcher Law
