Come my, heart, up and away!

Day by day, we are becoming what we shall be eternally. The spirit who convicts us is also the spirit who consoles.

Time is short. Eternity is long. It is only reasonable that this short life be lived in the light of eternity.

The religion of both Old and New Testaments is marked by fervent outspoken testimonies against evil. To speak smooth things in such a case may be sentimentalism, but it is not Christianity. It is a betrayal of the cause of truth and righteousness.

There is somebody in the world whom you have to bring to Christ. I do not know where he is, or who he is; but you had better look out for him.

There is an essential difference between the decease of the godly and the death of the ungodly. Death comes to the ungodly man as a penal infliction, but to the righteous as a summons to his Father's palace. To the sinner it is an execution, to the saint an undressing from his sins and infirmities. Death to the wicked is the King of terrors. Death to the saint is the end of terrors, the commencement of glory.

We may expect answers to prayer, and should not be easy without them any more than we should be if we had written a letter to a friend upon important business, and had received no reply.
