God Smiles When We Praise And Thank

What Could Begin To Deny Self, If There Were Not Something In Man Different From Self?

All Our Salvation Consists In The Manifestation Of The Nature, Life And Spirit Of Jesus Christ In Our Inward New Man. This Alone Is Christian Redemption, This Alone Delivers From The Guilt And Power Of Sin, This Alone Redeems And Renews.

We Have All Of Us Free Access To All That Is Great, And Good, And Happy, And Carry Within Ourselves A Key To All The Treasures That Heaven Has To Bestow Upon Us. We Starve In The Midst Of Plenty, Groan Under Infirmities, With The Remedy In Our Own Hand; Live And Die Without Knowing And Feeling Anything Of The One Only God, Whilst We Have It In Our Power To Know And Enjoy It In As Great A Reality As We Know And Feel The Power Of This World Over Us; For Heaven Is As Near To Our Souls As This World Is To Our Bodies; And We Are Created, We Are Redeemed, To Have Our Conversation In It.

Now If You Will Stop Here And Ask Yourself Why You Are Not As Pious As The Primitive Christians Were, Your Own Heart Will Tell You That It Is Neither Through Ignorance Nor Inability, But Purely Because You Never Thoroughly Intended It.

Be Intent Upon The Perfection Of The Present Day.
