As the Holy Spirit enables you, support an evangelistic cause. Before leaving for India, William Carey told his friends Andrew Fuller and Samuel Pearce, “I will go down into the pit, if you will hold the ropes.”[1] Carey was aware of the difficulty of moving to another country to serve as a missionary. He knew he could not be an effective missionary without others’ help. He thus needed his fellow believers to hold the ropes for him as he descended into the pit of India (so to speak) to proclaim the gospel there. Thankfully, his friends held the ropes for Carey. They prayed for him, raised funds for him, and encouraged their own congregations to be involved in the mission work in India.
