Let the Reader Understand

"The most glorious works of grace that ever took place, have been in answer to prayer, and it is in this way, we have the greatest reason to suppose, that the glorious outpouring of the Spirit which we expect at last [the author is referring to the advance of the Gospel throughout the world], will be bestowed."

-William Carey, quoted in Andrew F. Walls, The Missionary Movement in Christian History: Studies in the Transmission of the Faith (Maryknoll, New York: Orbis Books, 1996) 244.
