REVIEW á GWAIRSOFT.CO.UK Ï John Charles Pollock
Er of his day if he could give all that up then so could anyone The story of these seven are an Cambridge Seven The PDF #203 inspiration that God can take people and use them in incredible ways if they are willing to serve As Pollock says in his book Theirs is the story of ordinary men and thus may be repeated Will it be repeated in your li. I came to this book partially because of our recent relocation to Cambridge partially because I’m teaching Chinese History this year and partially because it’s cricket season and CT Studd is a legend This book is very much of its time and I would hope that issues of class would be tackled differently if written today It also grated on me because I really wanted Pollock to be a critical narrator There was lots in some of their thinking which needed to be called out One of the Seven didn’t go to China for three years because he applied Ezekiel 3 directly to him and only happened to change his mind because he stumbled across a verse in Isaiah I wish Pollock called out some of their bible handling and how it affected their lives One of the Seven who interestingly fell into universalism later in life was also worryingly keen on second baptism of the Spirit as consecration and a proponent of the Keswick Movement Again Pollock doesn’t call this outHaving said this it’s a heartwarming rousing story of seven men who truly knew that they were dead in Christ and knew that the love of the Christ controlled them and so were bold in bringing the nations to the Lord I enjoyed it

The Cambridge Seven The True Story of Ordinary Men Used in No Ordinary WayP Schofield's prayer was answered as seven Cambridge students The Cambridge Epubvolunteered to leave behind cosy lives of wealth and privilege to serve God in whatever way they were led These seven inspired thousands of others to think seriously of missionary service Included among them was CT Studd captain of England and the finest cricket. One of the best books I've read Not because the uality of writing is exemplary or there was a poetic elouence to his craftsmanship but because of the lives of the men which this book chroniclesThis is a story about some intelligent men in a college who banded together to pray together and serve together and live life together They sharpened each other and pushed each other towards new heights for Christ When they graduated they left their elite positions in society to become missionaries to China These men are known as the Cambridge Seven They became great and amazing people because they did it together Their story totally inspires me Something totally amazing happens when a group of people with one heart and one passion get on their knees together and live for JesusI was also really inspired by the men and women who prayed for these Seven at a distance It was as a result of their prayers that brought these pagans to their knees to devote themselves entirely to Jesus And what a ruckus the Cambridge Seven caused upon the sleeping Christians in England and even America It's so amazing how God uses ordinary people to cause ripple effects The prayer warriors and the Seven Because of them Hudson Taylor awakened to the purpose of concentration on a deepening of spiritual life so that consecration to service inevitably would follow It's true God does not deal with you until you are wholly given up to Him and then He will tell you what He would have you doIf you want to know God's will for you life give yourself completely to Him to be at His disposal Read this book for inspiration
