“pray God that there will come another revival. But not only a revival, but a reformation as well; for we must look for the two of them simultaneously. It is not just that people might come to know Christ, that they might have an initial experience with Him. They must also be discipled. Matt. 28:19,20. And in the discipling of men and women there is the study of the Scriptures. It is essential that the hunger of people for the word of God be satisfied. The disciples must get involved in the study of the Bible. Then and only then, will we see a genuine reformation. Revival speaks of a regeneration of life. Reformation speaks of a return to that Biblical Word, and living according to it, as a real substance. It will be reformation that will conserve the real fruits of revival when it comes. The two of them must be always be together. Walter Kaiser, The Old Testament in Contemporary Preaching, pg 95
