Would to God we were all Christians who profess to be Christians, and that we lived up to what we profess. Then would the Christian shine forth 'clear as the sun, fair as the moon,'and what besides — why, 'amazing as an army withbanners'! A consistent Church is an amazing Church' an honest, upright Church would shake the world! The tramp ofgodly men is the tramp of heroes; these are the thundering legions that sweep everything before them. The men that arewhat they profess to be, hate the semblance of a lie — whatever shape it wears' and would sooner die than do that which is dishonest, or that which would be degrading to the glory of a Heaven-born race, and to the honor of Him by whose name they have been called! O Christians! You will be the world's contempt; you will be their despising, and hissing unless you live for one objective!
