Excerpt from Paul and His Friends: A Series of Revival Sermons The sermons contained in this volume were preached in the First Methodist Episcopal Church, Cleveland, Ohio, during the month of January, 1898, in a series of evangelistic meetings. The themes had been selected two years before and illustrations had been gathering during all that time; but each sermon was finally outlined and dictated to a stenographer on the day of delivery. One of the most gracious revivals I have ever known in my pastoral work accompanied their utterance. The blessing of God made them at that time a message of salvation to many hearts, and I pray for His continued blessing upon them as they go out in printed form. The other volumes of revival sermons which I have pub lished have met with so wide a welcome in all parts of the English-speaking world that I am en couraged to h0pe that these discourses will bring suggestive and illustrative material to the hand of preachers, Sunday-school teachers, and soul-win.
