Suppose you had been a pig all your life, and that you were suddenly made into a man. Well, now you are a man, you look through a telescope; swine cannot do that.

Many dear children are called by God so early that they cannot precisely tell when they were converted. But they were converted; they must at some time or other have passed from death to life. You could not have told this morning, by observation, the moment when the sun rose, but it did rise. There was…

There lived some few years ago in Perugia, in Italy, a man of the loosest morals and the worst conceivable disposition.

The law ceases its office as pedagogue when it comes to be written on our hearts. Boys have their lessons on slates, but men have their laws in their minds. We trust a man where we would carefully watch a boy. When the child becomes a man, his father and mother do not write down little rules for him,…

If Niagara could suddenly be made to leap upward instead of forever dashing downward from its rocky height, it would not be such a miracle as to change the perverse will and the raging passions of men. To wash the Ethiopian white, or remove the leopard’s spots, is proverbially a difficulty, yet these…

Some men tell the tale of their past lives as if it really was very grand and very creditable to them to have done such abominable things. A man gets up in a meeting and says, “My dear friends, I have done that which, if it had been known, would have brought me to the gallows.” “Then sit down,” says…

Go into a telegraph office at any time, and you will see certain needles moving right and left with unceasing click. Electricity is a great mystery, and you cannot see or feel it, but the operator tells you that the electric current is moving along the wire. How does he know? “I know it by the needle.”…

When the Moravian missionaries first went to Greenland, they were months and months teaching the poor Greenlander about the Godhead, the doctrine of the Trinity, and the doctrine of sin and the law, and no converts were forthcoming.

THE STORY I was born in 1725, and I died 1807. The only godly influence in my life, as far back as I can remember, was my mother, whom I had for only seven years. When she left my life through death, I was virtually an orphan. My father remarried, sent me to a strict military school, where the severity…

We ought to pray with thanksgiving in its highest of all senses, by thanking God that we have the mercy which we seek. I wish we could learn this high virtue of faith.

We never find Adam afraid of God or of any manifestation of Deity while he was in Paradise an obedient creature. But no sooner had he touched the fatal fruit than he found that he was naked, and hid himself. When he heard the voice of the Lord God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, Adam was…

In the clear atmosphere of Menton, France, I have sometimes stood on quite a lofty mountain and seen a friend down in the valley. I have spoken his name, and at first it was greatly to my astonishment when he replied, “Where are you?” I held a conversation with him readily. I could not have actually…

In the night skies there had long been observed bright masses of light.

Some years ago there went into a Methodist class meeting a lawyer who was a doubter, but at the same time a man of candid spirit. Sitting down on one of the benches, he listened to a certain number of poor people, his neighbors, whom he knew to be honest people. He heard some 13 or 14 of these persons…
