If you are a Christian make the most of yourself, and you can do this
by coming into church relationship with the brotherhood of
Christians. A young convert gave as his reason for joining the church
the following: "If I was going to Chicago on the Broadway express and
had my ticket straight through to my destination, including the
comforts of a Pullman car, and then stood outside on the platform all
night, standing up and facing the storm, what a miserable man I would
prove myself to be, and what a faulty thinker I would also be. But I
am going to get all my ticket grants me. I will go inside and take
all the pleasure and comfort of the journey. So I am going into the
church and take all my salvation has provided for me. I will no
longer stand on the platform of the world. I want the best and all of
it." He was right. Get all that is coming to you, and get it now.
Come inside; you are entitled to a seat.
Years ago a boy, sixteen years old, came into New York City, with a
pack on his back containing all his belongings. He was a stranger in
a great city. Wandering through the streets one night, he saw a
lighted church with open doors, heard sweet singing from within. He
entered uninvited except by the open door. He heard the story of
Jesus and was saved. At once he offered himself for baptism, and was
received into church-membership. There the lad was trained and
schooled in righteousness. He became a great man. His name was
William Colgate, the founder of the great firm bearing his name. He
died worth millions, most of which he gave to his church, and left a
name that will never die. His influence permeated the denomination
that he honored as the perfume from his shops has permeated the
world. The Colgate Perfume Company of which he was the first member,
gathered its first sweetness from the Rose of Sharon that he found in
the Lord's sweet garden--the church of the First-born.
Before you dismiss the children and send them to their seats, pray
that God may deepen the lesson of the hour so it may sink into their
hearts, and charge the children to go and govern themselves
accordingly.
