from "Back To Pentecost" by Charles J Powler (in 1900) pg 14
"No class in the Church and congregation that do as little "according to their ability" as the rich. There are plenty of men in Methodism who could pay the missionary debt any day, and not feel it; but it is left for the humble offerers, in the main, to struggle with. How earnestly should we seek this poor-rich class to save them; how hastily should we find them that they may find Him; how lovingly should we press upon them the value of the true riches! God grant us to see their place and peril! God give us their souls in preference to their shekels! God make us all things to all that we may by all means save some."
Even King Manasseh repented!
