"WHICH CLASS ARE YOU TRAVELLING?" What
an oft-repeated question! Let me put it to you; for
travelling you most certainly are, travelling from time
into eternity; and who knows how very, very near you
may be at this moment to the GREAT TERMINUS?
Let me ask you then in all kindness, "Which class
are you travelling?" There are but three. Let me
describe them, that you may put yourself to the test
as in the presence of "Him with whom we have to
do."
1st - Those who are saved and know it. 2nd - Those
who are not sure of salvation, but anxious to be sure.
3rd - Those who are not only unsaved, but totally indifferent
about it.
Again I repeat my question, "Which class are you
travelling?" Oh, the madness of indifference, when
eternal issues are at stake!
A man came rushing into the railway station and, while
scarcely able to gasp for breath, took his seat in one
of the carriages just on the point of starting.
"You've run it fine," said a fellow-passenger.
"Yes," replied he, breathing heavily after
every two or three words, "but I've saved four
hours, and that's well worth running for."
"Saved four hours!" I couldn't help repeating
to myself; "four hours" well worth that earnest
struggle! What of eternity? What of |
