“The Devil's methods of opposition are those of alliance and antagonism, and the only serious one is the first. Let us beware of it. Do not let us imagine that we can take into our fellowship and enlist under one banner men who simply affirm truth about Jesus, unless in their own lives there is an absolute loyalty to the Lord Christ. Antagonism is the creation of force for the kingdom of God. Put a man in prison for Christ's sake, and the earthquake will surely follow, and the work will spread.” MenFirstsJesusForceChristLordImagineCreationSeriousDevilAbsolutesMethodPrisonSakeSpreadLoyaltyKingdomsOppositionImagine ThatFellowshipKingdom Of GodAlliancesEarthquakesBannerAntagonism Author:G.
