“The principal hindrance to the advancement of the kingdom of God is greed. It is the chief obstacle to heaven-sent revival. It seems that when the back of greed is broken, the human spirit soars into regions of unselfishness. I believe that it is safe to say there can be no continuous revival without 'hilarious' giving. And I fear no contradiction: wherever there is 'hilarious' giving there will soon be revival!” GivingBelieveHumansSeemsSpiritI BelieveHeavenBrokenSafeGreedObstaclesKingdomsChiefsContradictionRegionsPrincipalSoarHuman SpiritAdvancementKingdom Of GodStewardshipRevivalHindranceUnselfishnessHeaven Sent Author:O.
