We ourselves can die with comfort and even with joy if we know that death is but a passport to blessedness, that this intellect, freed from all material chains, shall rise and shine.

I do not purpose to discuss faith in its dogmatic sense today.

If you live for any joy on earth, you may be forsaken; but, oh, live for Jesus, and he will never forsake you!

The realm of immediate or personal knowledge is a narrow circle in which these bodies move; the realm of knowledge derived through faith is as wide as the universe, and old as eternity.

If you live for pleasure, your ability to enjoy it may pass away and your senses grow dim.

If, then, knowledge be power, how much more power to we gain through the agency of faith, and what elevation must it give to human character.
