-- I believe in what John Wesley used to say, "All at it, and always at
it," and that is what the Church wants to-day.
-- If we were all of us doing the work that God has got for us to do,
don't you see how the work of the Lord would advance?
-- There is no man living that can do the work that God has got for me
to do. No one can do it but myself. And if the work ain't done we
will have to answer for it when we stand before God's bar.
-- What makes the Dead Sea dead? Because it is all the time receiving,
never giving out anything. Why is it that many Christians are cold?
Because they are all the time receiving, never giving out an
anything.
CHRISTIAN ZEAL.
Satan's Match.
If you will allow me an expression, Satan got a match when he got Paul.
He tried to get him away from God, but he never switched off. Look how
they tortured him. Look how they stripped and beat him. Not only did the
Romans do this, but the Jews also. How the Jews tried to drag him from
his high calling. How they stripped him and laid upon the back of the
apostle blow after blow. And you know that the scourge in those days was
no light thing. Sometimes men died under that punishment. If one of us
got one of the stripes that Paul got, how the papers would talk about
it.
