With God all things are possible, and no conversion ever takes place save by the almighty power of the Holy Ghost. The great need, therefore, of every Christian worker is to know God. Indeed, this is the purpose for which He has given us eternal life, as our Savior Himself says in the often-misquoted verse, John 17:3: And this is [the object of] life eternal, [not to know but] that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.
