Parochial and Plain Sermons, Vol. 5 of 8 (Classic Reprint)


Book Description

Excerpt from Parochial and Plain Sermons, Vol. 5 of 8 True faith does not covet comforts. It only com plains when it is forbidden to kneel, when it reclines upon cushions, is protected by curtains. And eucom passed by warmth. Its only hardship is to be him dered, or to be ridiculed, when it would place itself as a sinner before its Judge. They who realize that awful Day' when they shall see Him face to face, whose eyes are as a flame of fire, will as little bargain to pray pleasantly now, as they will think of doing so then.
