Re: End time Revival
Regardless of how one feels about "end time revival" the truth is that we do need to do a better job of fulfilling the great commission.
My pastor mentioned a sobering statistic this morning. In our town of a little over 100,000 people statistics show that on any given Sunday almost 70% of people are not in a church of any kind including non christian services such as Muslim, Hindu, etc.
So even running 1100-1200 people each Sunday is just a drop in the bucket when you look at the 70,000 people we need to reach who are not going to church.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."
