There are about 130,000 ministers of the Gospel in the United States. 180,000 churches and about 25,000,000 communicants.

Of the 700 scholars who attend the Five Points mission school in New York city, one-third are Jews or of Jewish extraction and one-third are Italians.

Rev. J. Wilbur Chapman, D. D. , says that "the secret of Mr. Moody's power is due to the fact that Mr. Moody unquestionably accepts the whole Bible as the word of God."
