"In 1857 a revival swept over this country in the east and on to the western cities, clear over to the Pacific coast. It was God calling the nation to Himself. Half a million people united with the church at that time. Then war broke out. We were baptized with the Holy Spirit in 1857, and in 1861 we were baptized in blood. It was a call of mercy preceding judgment." --D.L. Moody
