DR. R. A. TORREY
Dr. Torrey was regarded by multitudes during his lifetime as at the very
top in soul-winning, Bible teaching, and the training of Christian workers.
He was selected by D. L. Moody as the superintendent of Moody Bible
Institute, where he established the Bible Institute curriculum and made
Moody Institute a pattern for Bible institutes around the world. He was
also pastor of Moody Memorial Church, Chicago. His courses on soul-winning
and his practical methods stamped themselves on the lives of Christian
workers by the thousands. Later he was the co-founder of the Bible Insti
tute of Los Angeles, now Biola College. At the same time he was pastor of
the great Church of the Open Door in Los Angeles.
But Dr. Torrey was primarily an evangelist. After the death of Moody, Dr.
Torrey and Charles M. Alexander held the largest campaigns in America and
then went around the world, winning hundreds of thousands of souls in great
campaigns in Australia, New Zealand, and the British Isles, and on the
mission fields of the Orient.
The Booklet, "Vest Pocket Companion for Christian Workers"
This little book is prepared in response to a request from one who is,
perhaps, in as good a position to know what Christians workers wish as any
man in America. It is not intended to supplant the larger work, "How to
Bring Men to Christ." Any who desire more definite and detailed
instruction in the right use of the Scripture given in this book and in the
general work of soul-winning are referred to the larger volume. Opinions
of the most experienced workers may differ as to which are "the Best Texts"
for any given case, but those quoted in this book are those which have
approved themselves as such in the study and experience of the author.
There is medicine in the Bible for every sin-sick soul, but every soul does
not need the same medicine. This book attempts to arrange the remedies
according to the maladies.
