The History of Revivals of Religion

William Allen

This book completes the "Revival Series." The following is a short account of the ground of this work.

In 1936 God called me to devote my life to the evangelization of the world. Since that time I have continually experienced the teaching of the Holy Spirit as He led me to study the great revival movements of the past, especially the life and writings of Charles G. Finney.

The idea of the “Revival Series” was an inspiration of the Holy Spirit, which led to the founding of the Revival Publishing Co., in April, 1948. The vision of this work is to provide keen Christians and young converts everywhere with a course of instruction that will lead them naturally into a life of efficient service in the cause of Revival and World Evangelization.

God has set His seal upon this work. Ministers, evangelists, missionaries, and Christians in many countries, have testified to definite blessing received through the booklets.

Revival is the key to world evangelisation. If the Christians in every country were revived, the world would be evangelised in a few years.

The world is before us. Nations are calling for the Gospel. Let us each one begin today to take part in this holy war.
