To The Work! To The Work! Exhortations to Christians by Dwight Lyman Moody

"To The Work! To The Work! Exhortations to Christians" by Dwight Lyman Moody is a series of motivational addresses aimed at encouraging Christians to actively engage in their faith. Written in the late 19th century, this work emphasizes the importance of personal involvement in spreading the Gospel and promoting a revival of spiritual fervor among believers. The author advocates for action over complacency, calling upon readers to roll away the barriers of prejudice and indifference that hinder a more robust expression of faith. At the start of this treatise, Moody draws from the Gospel of John, illustrating the necessity for human effort in divine outcomes, as evidenced by Jesus' instruction to His disciples to remove the stone before Lazarus could be raised. He posits that just as the disciples had an active role in this miraculous event, Christians today must take direct action to help bring the spiritually lost to Christ. The opening portion further discusses the societal need for a revival of godliness and truthfulness and critiques the skepticism that often surrounds revival movements, urging believers to embrace their mission with love and enthusiasm. Throughout, Moody's passionate exhortation seeks to inspire a sense of urgency and responsibility in the hearts of Christians, calling them to work zealously for the furtherance of their faith.
