 Let us note in passing that in professing Christendom the Gospel preached to the world barely goes beyond the appeal that we have just quoted and which I would call: the gospel of the prophets. A Christian of this category said in my presence to one who was dying: "Salvation is the hand of man taking hold of the hand of Jesus Christ" (cf. 2 Chron. 30:8). The great majority of the "Revival Hymns" do not go beyond this limit. (Hezekiah - The Passover and the Feast of Unleavened Bread: 2 Chronicles 30 by H.L. Rossier)
