SPEAKER_00: Welcome to the Preaching the Cross Radio Podcast, featuring the radio ministry of Pastor James W.
SPEAKER_00: Knox of the Bible Baptist Church of Delaney, Florida.
SPEAKER_00: Our prayer is that these half-hour Bible study programs will bring the lost to a saving knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ and enable the saved to grow in the grace and knowledge of the Savior.
SPEAKER_00: Now here's your host, Pastor James W.
SPEAKER_00: Knox.
SPEAKER_02: For that kind word of introduction.
SPEAKER_02: Thanks to each and every one of you for tuning in today to the Preaching of the Cross Radio Broadcast.
SPEAKER_02: I'm Brother James, and I greet you in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.
SPEAKER_02: I hope and pray that you'll be able to stay with us for the next half an hour as we try our best to point your hearts and turn your attention away from all the things and the cares and the troubles of this life on to the person of the Lord Jesus Christ.
SPEAKER_02: You know it's really wonderful to be saved.
SPEAKER_02: It's just a great thing to know the Lord and to be a part of his service.
SPEAKER_02: I was on my way here to sit behind the microphone just a few moments ago.
SPEAKER_02: I met a man coming out of a particular place of business, and he told me about someone he was witnessing to and telling them about Jesus Christ and how close he thought they were to being saved.
SPEAKER_02: As I got here, the telephone was ringing.
SPEAKER_02: I picked up the telephone.
SPEAKER_02: Someone was calling from all the way across the nation to tell me of a neighbor that they had been witnessing to who had come to know Jesus Christ as their personal Savior.
SPEAKER_02: It's just exciting to know that people are still being saved, that saved people are still preaching the gospel and witnessing to their friends and their neighbors and their acquaintances.
SPEAKER_02: It's just great to know the Lord.
SPEAKER_02: It's great to be a part of His work and of His body of the Church and just to participate in the wonderful things that God is doing in this world.
SPEAKER_02: I know it's a dark world.
SPEAKER_02: I know things are in a mess.
SPEAKER_02: I know that evil men and seducers are waxing worse and worse.
SPEAKER_02: I know and understand all those things.
SPEAKER_02: But it's still great to be a Christian.
SPEAKER_02: It's still great to be born again.
SPEAKER_02: It's still great to live for Jesus Christ.
SPEAKER_02: And I don't want to ever lose the excitement, the enthusiasm, the joy of living for Jesus.
SPEAKER_02: There's no life like it.
SPEAKER_02: There's nothing else to do.
SPEAKER_02: There's nothing else worth doing.
SPEAKER_02: I'll tell you, Jesus Christ, he is wonderful.
SPEAKER_02: He's wonderful.
SPEAKER_02: We like to talk on these broadcasts about heroes of the Christian faith.
SPEAKER_02: We've been doing so now for many years.
SPEAKER_02: Taking time out from our regular Bible teaching programs to discuss this man or that woman, this evangelist, that preacher, this missionary in the United States of America, Europe and Africa, China, all around the world, from all around the world come these stories of these great men and women.
SPEAKER_02: And on the program today, a man who made his mark on Canada and beyond, Donald Munro.
SPEAKER_02: Spelled a little differently than you might be used to.
SPEAKER_02: M-U-N-R-O, Donald Munro, was born in 1839 in the County Caithness, in the far north of Scotland, where so many of these heroes come from.
SPEAKER_02: His parents, James and Hannah Munro, held the old Puritan theology of the Highlands that conversion is a necessity.
SPEAKER_02: The new birth is a work of the spirit in the soul, and the gospel is the means used to effect it.
SPEAKER_02: They were right on the money.
SPEAKER_02: You must be converted, you must be born again.
SPEAKER_02: That's what Jesus Christ said.
SPEAKER_02: Nobody's born a Christian, and nobody evolves into being a Christian.
SPEAKER_02: You must be born again.
SPEAKER_02: This new birth is the work of the Holy Spirit of God in the soul.
SPEAKER_02: It's not an intellectual work in the mind, though the mind will consent to it.
SPEAKER_02: It's not an emotional work in the flesh, though there will be some form of emotion when one is passed from death unto life, from darkness unto light.
SPEAKER_02: But it is primarily, this new birth is primarily not the work of man as he pleads with his fellow.
SPEAKER_02: But it is the work of the Holy Spirit of God in the soul of the individual.
SPEAKER_02: The means used to effect it?
SPEAKER_02: The gospel.
SPEAKER_02: Since that very first day called Pentecost, recorded Acts chapter number two, until the day the church is taken out of this world, the preaching of the gospel is, was, and will be, to them that perish foolishness, but unto us which are saved, it is the power of God unto salvation.
SPEAKER_02: To everyone that believeth the Jew first, and also to the Gentile, God has seen fit to save men through the preaching of the gospel.
SPEAKER_02: Well, Donald Munro's parents gathered their children daily to read from the Gaelic Bible and to pray.
SPEAKER_02: In the disruption of 1843, James Munro took his family out of the established Church of Scotland and joined the Free Church, which was more evangelistic.
SPEAKER_02: But despite his parents' godly example, Donald was to resist the gospel.
SPEAKER_02: His older brother Charles was the first of the Munroe children to make a clear profession of salvation.
SPEAKER_02: Charles witnessed to his younger brother on a long walk, but Donald said, quote, I didn't want to be spoken to in that way again.
SPEAKER_02: In July of eighteen fifty eight, while working as an apprentice cabinet maker in the town of Wick, he went to hear Hay McDowell Grant, the laird of Arnley.
SPEAKER_02: He spoke from Romans chapter eight and verse one there is therefore now no condemnation to them that are in Christ Jesus who walk not of the flesh but of the Spirit.
SPEAKER_02: He seemed to talk directly to Monroe.
SPEAKER_02: Have you ever noticed that everyone who's been saved under gospel preaching tells the same tale?
SPEAKER_02: It seems they all say that preacher was speaking directly to me.
SPEAKER_02: Well he was.
SPEAKER_02: He was speaking directly to everyone in the building, everyone in the auditorium, everyone on the street.
SPEAKER_02: But when your heart was arrested by the convicting power of the Holy Spirit of God working with your conscience, how that message became a personal one.
SPEAKER_02: Young man, that preacher said, You may have read your Bible and said your prayers this morning, but did you pray?
SPEAKER_02: I warn you now before God who knows you thoroughly, that if you are not in Christ, you are under condemnation.
SPEAKER_02: That was the message.
SPEAKER_02: And God burned it into the soul of young Donald Monroe.
SPEAKER_02: Six weeks later, he went to speak privately with Brownlow North, who laid the facts before Donald in a way he had never seen them before.
SPEAKER_02: Later that night, he put his faith in Jesus Christ.
SPEAKER_02: Now, preacher friend, Sunday school teacher, personal worker, listen, listen carefully, please, listen to me just for a moment.
SPEAKER_02: When Hay McDonald Grant finished preaching that day, Donald Munro went home a lost man, and yet a lost man under conviction of his sin.
SPEAKER_02: Six weeks later, another man was able to have a hand in personally leading Donald Monroe to saving faith in Jesus Christ.
SPEAKER_02: Whether or not the evangelist who preached the day that Monroe fell under conviction ever knew of his conversion, we do not know.
SPEAKER_02: But he wasn't the saved that night.
SPEAKER_02: Later, Monroe would win to Jesus Christ through his ministry.
SPEAKER_02: John Ritchie, writer and publisher, T.
SPEAKER_02: D.
SPEAKER_02: W.
SPEAKER_02: Muir, evangelist, William Faulknore, missionary to Africa, Harry Ironside, Bible teacher and commentator.
SPEAKER_02: But the preacher, Hayden McDowell Grant, went home, went home one night after preaching to Donald Monroe.
SPEAKER_02: And as far as he knew, had accomplished nothing.
SPEAKER_02: Just preach on, just preach on.
SPEAKER_02: Let God have his way in the outcome.
SPEAKER_02: Monroe immediately upon conversion wanted to tell his roommate that he had been saved, but he was afraid.
SPEAKER_02: Finally, waking him in the middle of the night, he told the whole story, and the roommate also trusted Christ.
SPEAKER_02: That's pretty quick.
SPEAKER_02: Not many of us get to win somebody else to the Lord within hours of our own salvation.
SPEAKER_02: Early in his Christian life, Munro contacted James Dewar, who was preaching under Donald Ross's Northeast Coast Mission.
SPEAKER_02: You've heard about Donald Ross on these programs among the fishing villages.
SPEAKER_02: After working hours, Donald would accompany Dewar.
SPEAKER_02: This was harvest season along that coast.
SPEAKER_02: Dewar's success owed nothing to any brilliance or natural persuasiveness on his part.
SPEAKER_02: Rather his proximity to God and the throne of grace gave him influence among men.
SPEAKER_02: He would spend protracted periods in secret prayer, sometimes cloistering himself for days, seeking God in private.
SPEAKER_02: Monroe was simply a helper to Dewar.
SPEAKER_02: Then one night James announced to the congregation that there would be two meetings going on at the same time the next night.
SPEAKER_02: Donald knew Dewar would speak at one of them.
SPEAKER_02: After the meeting asked who would be preaching at the other meeting, and you will was the reply.
SPEAKER_02: In eighteen sixty five, Donald Ross invited Donald Munroe to join the gospel outreach of the Northeast Coast Mission.
SPEAKER_02: Donald worked mainly in the far north in Sutherlandshire.
SPEAKER_02: He also helped in the awakenings along the Moray Firth and in Aberdeenshire, lending a hand in the reaping of souls at Cairnbog, Inverkley, and at Footdi.
SPEAKER_02: Where the power of God was manifested, the meetings continued day and night.
SPEAKER_02: As Ross searched his Bible, he decided to end his service in the Northeast Coast mission.
SPEAKER_02: In eighteen seventy he started the Northern Evangelistic Association.
SPEAKER_02: Munro was one of the first evangelists to join.
SPEAKER_02: It seemed a risky step, but Munro reasoned that if God was leading them out, then God would supply their needs.
SPEAKER_02: His pot will be big enough to hold porridge for me, was his saying.
SPEAKER_02: Soon the New Mission Society dissolved, and the men discovered that their relationship of co laboring did not need the artificial bands of ligaments of some society or denomination.
SPEAKER_02: At Inverary, there was strong opposition, but Munro was an overcomer.
SPEAKER_02: At their second gospel meeting, quote, few were present but scoffers, and such an exhibition of the devil I never did see before anywhere.
SPEAKER_02: There were about thirty scoffers.
SPEAKER_02: During the time of prayer they hissed, cheered, and shouted so that one could not hear his own voice.
SPEAKER_02: Munro took heart, knowing that sometimes the devil's roars are his admission of defeat, and that he leaves his victims to wallow foaming.
SPEAKER_02: According to John chapter nine I'm sorry, Mark chapter nine, verse twenty.
SPEAKER_02: At the conclusion of the week, they saw twenty saved out of this rabble, twenty saved out of this mocking, jeering crowd.
SPEAKER_02: Among them, an eighteen-year-old named John Ritchie, who went on to serve Christ with his tongue and pen, forming what is now John Ritchie Publishers.
SPEAKER_02: Have you ever felt you were dealing with people who just weren't paying any attention?
SPEAKER_02: Have you ever felt like you were addressing a crowd that uh had no interest?
SPEAKER_02: Did you ever feel that you were witnessing to someone who uh was only intent on harassing you?
SPEAKER_02: Well, think of all the people that have been blessed and helped through the books published by John Ritchie Publishers, and remember he was an eighteen-year-old troublemaker disrupting an evangelistic campaign.
SPEAKER_02: But God saved his soul.
SPEAKER_02: In eighteen seventy one, after a strenuous twelve months of gospel campaigns, Monroe took a break to visit his brother Charles in Park Hill, Ontario.
SPEAKER_02: He also hoped to witness to his unconverted brother William.
SPEAKER_02: Monroe reported on the progress of the work.
SPEAKER_02: His letters were printed in the Northern Intelligencer and the Northern Witness, and became seeds of interest to bring other preachers such as John Carney, John Smith, Donald Ross, and Alexander Marshall over to Canada and the United States.
SPEAKER_02: At this time Ross was in Scotland examining the issue of Christian baptism, while Munro did likewise in Canada.
SPEAKER_02: Ross corresponded with his friends, saying that he saw the matter clearly and was baptized in the River Dee one Saturday morning.
SPEAKER_02: Donald Munro sailed the ocean to have Ross baptize him at Aberdeen on december thirty first, eighteen seventy one.
SPEAKER_02: Thereafter, believers' baptism by immersion was a key element of teaching to the new converts.
SPEAKER_02: Monroe also saw a bold step being taken in Scotland.
SPEAKER_02: In November of eighteen seventy one, as James Campbell recalled, the Lord's table was spread in the simplicity of the early times.
SPEAKER_02: It was a beautiful sight indeed.
SPEAKER_02: We had never heard of such a meeting until we saw it with our own eyes.
SPEAKER_02: Not a priest giving mass or communion to laymen, but all the brethren equally before the table of the Lord, in communion with the Savior and with one another.
SPEAKER_02: As New Testament churches sprang up, the opposition sprang up too.
SPEAKER_02: Monroe discovered the meaning of that saying endure hardness as a good soldier of Christ, do the work of an evangelist.
SPEAKER_02: When McIntosh published a booklet, an inflammatory booklet called The New Prophets, the scoffers felt that they had the support of the established church, and all restraint against violence and public ridicule was removed.
SPEAKER_02: At meetings in Huntley, a clergyman stood up to disrupt the message with railing denunciation.
SPEAKER_02: Donald Ross said the mockers gave savage, cruel, and brutal treatment worthy of the palmy days of the Inquisition.
SPEAKER_02: God's truth had laid bare the sores, and they were very sore.
SPEAKER_02: You see, these men were preaching that one was not saved because water had been sprinkled on their forehead when they were a baby, and that one was not part of the true church of the Lord Jesus Christ just because his name was on the membership roll of some denominational structure.
SPEAKER_02: And here came the trouble from the same religious crowd that hounded Jesus Christ and the Apostle Paul and everyone that's ever tried to do something for God and make a mark on this world.
SPEAKER_02: At a pack Sunday evening meeting, the scoffers turned the lights out and tried to cause a panic.
SPEAKER_02: But the Christians remained calm.
SPEAKER_02: And some of the scoffers were saved by the testimony of the believers.
SPEAKER_02: At the climax of that meeting, the opposition rushed onto the platform, threw the preachers to the floor, and told them to desist preaching or they would be murdered.
SPEAKER_02: Isn't that a great way for professing Christians to treat those who are preaching the gospel?
SPEAKER_02: Isn't that just wonderful?
SPEAKER_02: The devil must have been quite worried about losing hold of Huntley and rightly so.
SPEAKER_02: Thereafter it became the birthplace of a number of missionaries and Christian workers.
SPEAKER_02: In October of eighteen seventy two, Monroe returned to Ontario.
SPEAKER_02: In eighteen seventy three he was joined in the work by James Campbell and John Smith to campaign in Chatham, Dundas, Forest, Galt, London, Orilla, Saint Catharines, Statford, and Toronto.
SPEAKER_02: The Word of God went out, and it went out in power.
SPEAKER_02: Numbers came to the Savior and congregations were established.
SPEAKER_02: Oh the opposition persisted.
SPEAKER_02: A clergyman in Forest, Ontario warned, Mr.
SPEAKER_02: Munro is all right so long as he keeps the gospel, but I warn you against his Bible readings, they are sure to lead you astray.
SPEAKER_02: One night in eighteen seventy three, Munro visited the town of Shakespeare, near Stratford.
SPEAKER_02: We can never forget the first time we heard the voice of Donald Munro preaching on the street in Shakespeare.
SPEAKER_02: Nobody spoke to him, and when he had finished he returned to Stratford.
SPEAKER_02: He came again the following night, preached in the open air, and obtained permission to have meetings in the schoolhouse.
SPEAKER_02: There he was joined by Mr.
SPEAKER_02: Smith, his fellow laborer.
SPEAKER_02: They preached the word simply and faithfully each night, and God gave blessing.
SPEAKER_02: Sinners were saved, and those who were the Lord's revived.
SPEAKER_02: Well, how about that?
SPEAKER_02: An evangelistic campaign.
SPEAKER_02: Revival and souls being saved, growing out of open air preaching.
SPEAKER_02: So that was a different day and time.
SPEAKER_02: Oh yes, I'm sure it was.
SPEAKER_02: I'm sure it was.
SPEAKER_02: Always an excuse to hide in the safe walls of the church, isn't there?
SPEAKER_02: People haven't changed.
SPEAKER_02: Some are going to heaven, some are going to hell.
SPEAKER_02: A few love the Lord, most despise him.
SPEAKER_02: Nothing's changed.
SPEAKER_02: But the Presbyterian minister was not so encouraged when you notice some of his sheep straying over to the schoolhouse.
SPEAKER_02: He set in motion a cycle of abuse.
SPEAKER_02: In God's name, of course.
SPEAKER_02: Monroe and Smith lost the use of the schoolhouse, and every place they rented or stayed was vandalized.
SPEAKER_02: Of course, for God, you understand.
SPEAKER_02: I mean vandalism for Jesus.
SPEAKER_02: Windows were broken and stones smashed against the doors of private houses.
SPEAKER_02: To do what?
SPEAKER_02: Stop Bible preaching.
SPEAKER_02: A fine hour for Calvinism, was it not?
SPEAKER_02: One day a property owner stood looking at the work of a mob on the previous evening, when an elder of the church, which was the most guilty of the violence, walked by.
SPEAKER_02: While embarrassed by his fellow parishioners, he made the lame excuse The truth must be upheld at all cost, even if stones have to be used.
SPEAKER_02: On hearing this, John Ritchie remarked, Very likely the murderers of Stephen would have given a similar answer.
SPEAKER_02: Yet that spring Munro baptized twenty five new converts from Shakespeare.
SPEAKER_02: At Clyde, Ontario, Monroe, Smith and Carney preached for five weeks.
SPEAKER_02: A brother McPherson hosted Monroe and he said, Quote, His godly life in our home and his earnest prayers had a wonderful effect on all.
SPEAKER_02: He often retired alone to the edge of a wood to pour out his soul in prayer to God, continuing for a long time.
SPEAKER_02: He was the first to open up the Word of God to us, and we never knew any who could do it so simply and plainly as he did.
SPEAKER_02: In one day, Monroe baptized fifty believers in a pond near Clyde.
SPEAKER_02: In June of eighteen seventy four, Monroe and Smith came to Hamilton, Ontario.
SPEAKER_02: They preached six weeks of gospel meetings and decided that the meager results dictated that they should pack their bags.
SPEAKER_02: But on the last night a young man named Thomas Muir was saved.
SPEAKER_02: Monroe and Smith were heartened and decided to stay a little longer.
SPEAKER_02: They unpacked their bags.
SPEAKER_02: Two nights later, Thomas Muir leaned over to a distressed young man and asked, Have you eternal life?
SPEAKER_02: No, I have not, but I wish I did have.
SPEAKER_02: A few minutes later, the man, William Faulkner, trusted Christ.
SPEAKER_02: Sitting behind them, Kenneth Muir listened, and he was saved.
SPEAKER_02: Faulkner would eventually go to Angola to serve in mission work with Fred Stanley Arnaud.
SPEAKER_02: Muir became a missionary to the metropolis of Detroit.
SPEAKER_02: Six weeks, no results.
SPEAKER_02: The last night, one young man saved.
SPEAKER_02: Well, two more nights of meetings.
SPEAKER_02: And two missionaries.
SPEAKER_02: Two future missionaries, born again.
SPEAKER_02: In Toronto, Monroe became the frequent guest in the John and Sophia Ironside home, along with his co-worker John Smith.
SPEAKER_02: A ten year old boy named Henry Allan Ironside would never forget the man who carried with them the atmosphere of eternity.
SPEAKER_02: One of them was very tall and wore a long brown beard, he would say later.
SPEAKER_02: His name was Donald Monroe.
SPEAKER_02: The other was quite short, his beard was long also, but it was black and his eyebrows were bushy and very shaggy.
SPEAKER_02: Harry used to enjoy watching him clip them.
SPEAKER_02: The shorter man's name was John Smith, but pride of his Privately was nicknamed Hellfire Jack.
SPEAKER_02: I wonder what he preached.
SPEAKER_02: As they came down the stairs for breakfast, one of them asked, Harry, my lad, are you born again?
SPEAKER_02: In defense, Harry reported on his track distribution efforts, his Bible memorization, and Sunday school attendance, but the interview ended with a bearded preacher saying, Oh, oh, Laddie, you may give out tracts and still spend eternity in hell.
SPEAKER_02: You must be born again, Harry Boy.
SPEAKER_02: When Harry's widowed mother moved the family to San Francisco, Harry thought that those preachers would never buttonhold him again, but he was wrong.
SPEAKER_02: The next year, in eighteen sixty six, Donald Munro married Miss Helen Dorr, and the Munroes settled in Toronto.
SPEAKER_02: Meanwhile, in eighteen eighty seven, Ross saw a church established in the San Francisco Bay Area.
SPEAKER_02: That October they held their first annual Bible conference.
SPEAKER_02: And who else would Ross invite to such a conference but his comrade Donald Munro?
SPEAKER_02: In the late summer of eighteen eighty nine, Monroe again appeared.
SPEAKER_02: The fourteen year old was returning home from school when Mrs.
SPEAKER_02: Ironside said, Harry, who do you suppose is here?
SPEAKER_02: He guessed by her excitement it was Uncle Henry.
SPEAKER_02: Guess again.
SPEAKER_02: Without waiting for another wrong guest, she enthused, it's Mr.
SPEAKER_02: Munro.
SPEAKER_02: Donald greeted him.
SPEAKER_02: Well, well, Harry lad, how you have grown.
SPEAKER_02: And are you born again yet, my boy?
SPEAKER_02: What a man.
SPEAKER_02: Ironside never could hide his blush.
SPEAKER_02: Speechless Harry was eyeing the floor when his uncle interjected O'Harry preaches himself now, referring to some Sunday school and Bible club work Harry had started.
SPEAKER_02: You are preaching, and yet you don't know that you're born again.
SPEAKER_02: Go and get your Bible, lad.
SPEAKER_02: As his biographer put it, Harry was so eager for an excuse to leave the room that he flew up the stairs.
SPEAKER_02: He knew he had to come down again, but he took as much time as he possibly could to do so.
SPEAKER_02: When finally he could stay away no longer without being rude, he descended with his Bible in his hand.
SPEAKER_02: The first thing Monroe asked Harry to do was turn to Romans three hundred nineteen.
SPEAKER_02: The boy did.
SPEAKER_02: Now read it aloud.
SPEAKER_02: Harry complied.
SPEAKER_02: Now we know that whatsoever things the law saith, it saith to them that are under the law, that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God.
SPEAKER_02: He had scarcely begun reading when Harry knew why that passage had been chosen.
SPEAKER_02: Harry lad, have you ever been there?
SPEAKER_02: What do you mean, the boy countered?
SPEAKER_02: Well, I understand that you have got your mouth pretty wide open trying to preach to other people.
SPEAKER_02: When God makes a preacher, he stops his mouth first.
SPEAKER_02: Then when he sees his lost condition, God leads him to put his trust in the Lord Jesus.
SPEAKER_02: But when he trusts and is born of God and his soul is saved, then God opens his mouth.
SPEAKER_02: You've been putting the cart before the horse, haven't you?
SPEAKER_02: Maybe I have, Harry replied.
SPEAKER_02: That interview with Monroe gave him an emotional whiplash, and six months he still suffered from the jolt.
SPEAKER_02: One Thursday night, february eighteen ninety, he again read from Romans three, then John three, and that night, Harry Ironside trusted Jesus Christ as his personal savior.
SPEAKER_02: Campbell, Carney, Gill, Marshall, Monroe, Ross, and Smith toiled for the perishing.
SPEAKER_02: They led by example.
SPEAKER_02: They evangelized throughout Ontario, Manitoba.
SPEAKER_02: Monroe evangelized in Boston, Chicago, Kansas City, New York, Philadelphia.
SPEAKER_02: He made ten trips to the West Coast in the days when no gospel preaching of any record was being conducted in those regions.
SPEAKER_02: The years 1905 to 1906 were perhaps Donald's busiest.
SPEAKER_02: Finally his health gave in.
SPEAKER_02: Donald and Helen made visits to his many children in the faith, hoping by this to recoup his strength, but but he couldn't do it.
SPEAKER_02: Donald Monroe passed into glory in 1908.
SPEAKER_02: Probably not a man that you've heard of, but a man you'll meet.
SPEAKER_02: In fact, in fact, most of you listen to my voice have been helped or influenced by the ministry of Donald Monroe.
SPEAKER_02: Whether you know it or not, you've heard a preacher preach something he learned from one of Munro's converts.
SPEAKER_02: And those men preached something they learned from Donald Monroe.
SPEAKER_02: Only heaven will reveal.
SPEAKER_02: Only heaven will reveal how God has passed truth from man to man, generation to generation.
SPEAKER_02: What a blessing to be a part of this great work of God.
SPEAKER_02: Do you know Jesus Christ is your Savior?
SPEAKER_02: So I'm a preacher.
SPEAKER_02: I pass out tracts, I memorize scripture.
SPEAKER_02: Didn't ask you that.
SPEAKER_02: Do you know Jesus Christ is your personal Savior?
SPEAKER_02: Have you ever been born again?
SPEAKER_02: You must be.
SPEAKER_02: That's what the Bible says.
SPEAKER_02: You must be born again.
