All About The Rear Guard Preachers

"Let's quit fiddling with religion and do something to bring the world to Christ. If you want to drive the devil out of the world, hit him with a cradle instead of a crutch." 


In The Last Century ... The Rear Guard Past

  • GOD has sent his REAR GUARD preachers to America to try to turn America back to himself.
    GOD has sent men like Sam Jones to preach. D.L. Moody once said of Sam Jones: "God has put into your hands the sledge hammer with which to shatter the formalism of the church and batter down the strongholds of sin, and He is helping you mightily to use it."
    GOD also sent Lorenzo Dow to preach fire and brimstone to a people growing dim in the eyes and cold in the heart.
    The LORD has had a literal drove of troops. Some of them are listed here. Reuben Torrey (1856-1928), William B. Riley (1861-1947), Bob Jones, Sr. (1883-1968), Billy Sunday (1862-1935), J. Frank Norris (1877-1952), Harry Ironside (1876-1951), Mordecai Ham (1877-1961), T.T. Shields (1873-1955), Charles G. Finney (1792-1875), David Brainerd (1718-1747), and Shelden Jackson (1834-1909).
  • God's old-time preachers that stood true suffered derision and ridicule and were often threatened for their very lives.
    One time in 1908 after Mordecai Ham had preached there, the streets of Asheville, North Carolina, were filled all night with crowds shouting "Hang Ham! Hang Ham!" Another time Mordecai was in San Benite, Texas, (1918) and a bunch of soldiers "seized him and started up the railroad tracks with a rope, a bucket of tar, and a sack of feathers." (Ed Reese, Christian Hall of Fame Series, Mordecai Ham, p. 10).
  • GOD sent his prophets to Israel.  GOD sent his preachers to America!
    America was increasingly rejecting them. With that rejection, the Bible colleges and seminaries began turning out a different breed of preachers. Modernism, materialism and unbelief had crept in. America was turning away from the God of the Bible. History had repeated itself.
  • There is one thing we can learn from history, and that is, men do not learn from history!
    Billy Sunday
    "Let's quit fiddling with religion and do something to bring the world to Christ.

    If you want to drive the devil out of the world, hit him with a cradle instead of a crutch.
    I'm against sin.
  • I'll kick it as long as I've got a foot, and I'll fight it as long as I've got a fist. I'll butt it as long as I've got a head. I'll bite it as long as I've got a tooth. And when I'm old and fistless and footless and toothless, I'll gum it till I go home to Glory and it goes home to perdition!"
    Billy Sunday
