The nature of Christ’s salvation is woefully misrepresented by the present-day evangelist. He announces a Savior from Hell rather than a Savior from sin. And that is why so many are fatally deceived, for there are multitudes who wish to escape the Lake of fire who have no desire to be delivered from their carnality and worldliness.

Whom have I in heaven but Thee? The only heaven I wish above is but to see Thy face. Let others form confused ideas of the upper world, and desire it as a place where something is to be enjoyed, they know not what; but I know what a heaven I desire. Could I ascend to the highest heavens and find the presence of my God withdrawn, it would be no heaven for me. The only reason I pant to ascend above the sun and all these ruinable worlds, is that I may bask in the sunshine of His smiles, and forever behold the source of Light without one envious cloud between. Let me but sit at His feet and gaze upon His lovely face, and cry, with unutterable wonder and gratitude, “My Lord and my God,” and I ask no more.

We all profess that we are bound for heaven, immortality, and glory: but is it any evidence that we really design it if all our thoughts are consumed about the trifles of this world, which we must leave behind us, and have only occasional thoughts of things above?

When you’re safe on eternity’s shore will you wish you could live your life o’er? When He asks for the fruit of your labors will you offer Him idle hands?

Oh to fully realize the littleness of time and greatness of eternity!

The future is as bright as the promises of God.

As no darkness can be seen by anyone surrounded by light, so no trivialities can capture the attention of anyone who has his eyes on Christ.
