Excerpt from The Faith and Life of a Christian
Christ is the same, yesterday, and today, and forever. We must bring men back to the old Gospel foundation which can never change, and then they can be fear less ih the midst of confusion and in their own strength inspire others with courage. There is also much perplexity to-day as to the relationship between faith and duty. Men question not only the basis of moral ity, but as well the power of Christianity to make the life pure and the heart brave. They want the comfort of religion to guide them in the daily conflict, and the peace of God to enable them to face calmly and hopefully the future. Is not your faith something by which we may live? They cry. If itiis a fact, then we are ready to accept it, but it must prove itself worthy of our acceptance by the power it can give. The story of the church in the world ought to bring an answer; but few read history and fewer understand it. That the only power amongst men to guide and comfort and inspire is Christianity; that the Lord is amongst His people always, and that He knows, and cares, and blesses all who will accept His priceless gifts, this is not commonly understood. Why this is so, when we have so many churches.
