Are You A Fanatic

ARE YOU A FANATIC?

"Some men are afraid of being too religious. What we need today are men who believe down deep in their soul what they profess. The world is tired and sick of sham. Let your whole heart be given up to God's service. Aim high. God wants us all to be His ambassadors. It is a position higher than that of any monarch on earth to be a herald of the cross; but you must be filled with the Holy Ghost. A great many people are afraid to be filled with the Spirit of God - afraid of being called fanatics. You are not good for anything until the world considers you a fanatic. Fox said that every Quaker ought to shake the country ten miles around. What does the Scripture say? 'One shall chase a thousand, and two shall put ten thousand to flight.' It takes about a thousand Christians to make one decent one now. Why? Because they are afraid of being too religious. What does this world want today? Men - men that are out and out for God, and not half-hearted in their allegiance and service." (D. L. Moody)
