Evil can be undone, but it cannot ‘develop into good.’ Time does not heal it. The spell must be unwound, bit by bit, ‘with backward mutters of dissevering power’–or else not. It still ‘either-or’. If we insist on keeping Hell (or even Earth) we shall not see Heaven: if we accept Heaven we shall not be able to retain even the smallest and most intimate souvenirs of Hell.

The most foolish person in the world is the one who has the opportunity to read, absorb, digest, live in, be immersed in worship-reading the Bible, but doesn’t do it because of PREOCCUPATION with other things of this world.

Do you desire to subdue sin?  Would you be holy?  Would you imitate your Master?  Do you desire to rise to superlative heights of spirituality?  Are you wanting to be made like the angels of God, full of zeal and ardor for the Master’s cause?  You cannot without the Spirit: “Without Me you can do nothing.”  Oh branch of the vine, you can have no fruit without the sap!  Oh child of God, you have no life within you apart from the life which God gives you through His Spirit!

The time is so short, such a little time to rescue souls from hell, for there will be no rescue work in heaven.
